I know the easy answer is to get the boxes from ULine or another online supplier...

But what I would like to do is try to source them from a place that would normally throw them out. This way they serve another purpose than just getting tossed into the trash. So does anyone know places that would have cooler boxes that would normally toss them out when done? Any size is welcome, just looking for potential sources...

Thanks!
 
Try a nursing home. They will receive shipments of sensitive medications that need to stay cooled.

Maybe even some hospitals.
 
Don't know your proximity to a LFS. But several in my area throw there boxes away, maybe you can check there?
