What do you do with boxes?

[Solidus]

Right now I'm storing the boxes in a few closets. But I sometimes wonder what's the point. It's not like I'll ever display the boxes and they only seem to be taking up space. If my collection ever gets "large enough" I'll probably have to start recycling them, or just sell them off on EBay.

My problem is I have more storage space than display space..
I have a cellar were all my boxess go..

A nice problem to have!

However you dont have enough statues from the looks of it

Ah, empty boxes, the bane of every statue and figure collector...

Even though I can't ever see myself selling much of anything, still gotta keep all the boxes in care I move house, or need to switch any pieces or and store them away, or if I get hit by a bus (or whatever), and my family wants to get rid of all, or most, of this stuff.

But damn do they ever take up room. Currently there's boxes under my bed, in the hall closet, in another closet, and taking up probably a third of the 'spare' room. If/When I run out of room in there I don't know what I'll do to be honest...and God help me if I ever need to ove into a smaller place.

My God I have a ton of boxes. I use a utility space on the back of my garage for the empties... But it's filling way too fast. Sideshow is killing me with all these big items like the PF boxes or Yoda's hut etc.

This is the current state of my second bedroom....

It was worse 2 days ago when there were 10 or more boxes stacked in.

I ended up throwing/recycling the boxes of following statue:

Iron Man Mark I Maquette Ex
Iron Man Mark VI Maquette Ex
Warmachine Maquette Ex
Black Cat PF Ex
She Hulk Comiquette Ex
Mary Jane Comiquette Ex
Attakus Ezio Statue
Lara Croft Ex
Scarlett Witch Ex
Black Queen Ex
Attakus Cecil
Captain America Bucky Ex
Jack Sparrow PF Ex
Both my Terra Crusher Nitro Trucks
and few other....

Damn frustrated... and so is my wife....

Borderline hoarder: buried alive Damn part of my house is like that too.

Clearly, you are unmarried.

Yes....no one loves me

@Sarvesh
That pic looks like it straight out of the hoarders show.

The brown shipping boxes are all flattened out while the art boxes are what holds the roof of my place.

Should I sleep on the ground Ave?
The shipping boxes is my bed.
Are you happy now?

 

[Jackhepburn]

I would sooner sell the whole figure than bin a box. Binning a collectables box to me is like throwing dvd's in the bin after watching them.

You should sell your Doom to me and get yourself a new comfy bed.
