Keeping all my equipment boxes

[mrhammy]

It was a great day when all my shiny, brand-new equipment was delivered. I built up my system, and everything is running great. So, do you keep all those shiny boxes? I kept things at first in case I needed to return them for warranty or failure. Shoul di break them down and get rid of them? They take up a good deal of space, and I most likely will never use them. Thoughts?

I keep the boxes for a few months and then recycle them afterwards. I have no shortage of boxes if I would need to ship them for return/repair.

How many years worth of boxes do you have lol?

I make sure the machine works properly, then I toss the box. But I do keep all my old broken down machines, I have almost 20 years worth of broken pumps, impellers, tubing, miscellaneous attachments, etc...

I just took a load of junk to the dump yesterday. Decided to finally part with my 50" photon v2 box after 9 months. Just took up to much space. Smaller hard boxes I keep (Hannah for example)

I keep the boxes i have the spare parts for that item in them and also if I go to sell the item I have the box for it.
Idk but was thinking the same. I just clean out almost a whole garbage can full of boxes and junk

I get rid of the boxes after I’m sure the equipment is working. I have a tote for all extra parts that I may need later on.
The only box I keep is my Trident since it needs to be shipped back every few years for a tune up.

I keep some boxes if needed. I have 2 Photon 50 boxes in the rafters in the garage in case I need to ship them one day.

Believe me... There was a moment of pause before I chucked it in the cardboard pit at the dump. I'm sure I'll regret it at some point... But there is also something therapeutic about clearing the house of clutter
