Cardboard boxes for pedal storage

Post by JVG » Sat Jun 27, 2020 10:51 pm

Does anyone know of any vendors of cardboard pedal boxes? I’m looking for the smallish ones, roughly 5” x 3” x 3” (such as most pedals come in).

So far the options i’ve found are:
Smallbear Electronics - charge US $30 for postage to Australia. :o
Various custom cardboard box manufacturers - generally require a minimum order of at least 50. :whistle:

There must be a better option for a small quantity (5-10).

Cheers!
J.

I feel like any small packing supply store could probably help. I'd also check ebay and see if you can order 'em cheap in bulk from China or something.

Trading card boxes might be around the right size ? ... eg

You've answered your own question - you just need to buy more pedals.
