need bike shipping boxes?

I have 5 extra bike boxes left over from a recent shipment of new bikes (all 700c road/touring bikes). Does anyone need one or more?

My friend suggested donating them to Working Bikes; when I checked they said they only ship large numbers of bikes so they have no need for individual boxes.

Perhaps someone here needs a box for an upcoming trip or eBay auction? It would be a shame to toss these, so let me know if you need one or more. These are brand name bike boxes, so I do not want to put them out in the alley.

PM me if interested; I will be home in Logan Square starting around 7 tonight (Tuesday).

Thanks

Thanks. I thought I'd offer them up to folks on Chainlink first and then put em on CL if necessary.

If they have to be gone tonight, do offer them up in the free section on Craigslist, and also the bike sale section, i'm sure some, if not all will be taken rather quickly.

any recommendations?

According to the Jim Langley article on boxing a bike, yes. That said, I have not done this personally. Perhaps others will have a better answer?

Check your local bike store, they might be able to help especially if you're a regular.
