moving boxes..where to get them?

Does anyone have a good suggestion on where to buy boxes? Home depot, Uhaul? Not sure where they are least expensive.
TIA

Re: moving boxes..where to get them?

DH has gotten them at Home Depot in the past. Not sure how much they cost.

This also may sound really ghetto, but whenever we've moved, we've gone to Home Depot and gotten those large, rip-proof contractor bags and filled them up with a lot of our stuff. (Especially clothing, blankets, light non-breakables, stuff like that).

They're not that expensive either.

I purchased them from Staples. I had a coupon. I got 20 boxes for $35.
