Review: Fellowes Bankers Boxes

We moved almost a month ago into a new rental house - naturally, the “office” is still a disaster - all of the extra moving boxes, and all of my disorganized computer paraphernalia is stashed in there, awaiting my organization efforts. Unfortunately, this new place has a lot less closet and storage space inside than our old place, but it does have an outside storage shed.

In an effort to better organize all of my stuff in the storage shed I decided to find some good quality storage boxes for cheap. I was able to pick up a package of ten “bankers boxes” at Walmart for $12. This type of box is exactly what I had in mind. I like the fact that they have a nice lid and handles on the sides, and $12 was definitely within my budget.

Putting the boxes together was very simple - the lid is attached, but is perforated and easily detached - each box has visual directions printed on it, showing how to fold the flaps to properly put the boxes together; after the first one or two, I knew exactly what I was doing. No tools or other accessories were required for putting them together. I was able to put all the boxes together in about 5-10 minutes. The boxes seem incredibly sturdy, and all ten are in good condition.

As an included bonus, a postcard was included in the packaging proclaiming “WIN $500″ - all I had to do for an entry in this drawing was fill out a simple survey about my box purchase online - which actually ended up inspiring this review. I’ll make sure to tell you all when I win the $500 :)

Quality: 5/5

Ease of Assembly: 5/5

Price: 4/5

Overall Rating:

Check these boxes out if you are in need of a bit of organization yourself, and wish me good luck on my ongoing project.
