Resell
You can make a few dollars for moving boxes that are in excellent condition. You can try to sell them to homeowners who need it for moving or other purposes. A good place to start advertising is on local newspaper classifieds.
On the other hand, you can inform your moving company if you want them to collect the boxes after the move.

Green Bin
You can drop your boxes of in the green bin. Most boxes are recyclable, just pack them flat and dispose it in the recycling bins or drive them off to the nearest refuse site.
The Freecycle Network
Freecycle is a non-profit organization where people give away stuff for free. Their aim is to promote waste reduction and help save landscape from being taken over by landfills. Homeowners within your area can still use your storage boxes. Giving them away is a great way to get it out of landfills.
Donate
You can donate used moving boxes that are still in good condition. If your friends, close neighbors, or family members are preparing for a big move, you may want to help them even in the simplest way you can.
