sockmonkey Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 No kidding. I haven't and won't.I don't think anyone was looking for solutions--just wondering if others felt the same way. Obviously, some do and some don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SliverOfWax Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Simpler solution: Put your supplies in the back where customers won't be tripping and falling down over boxes stacked here and there.That way, you won't have to search for a new supplier.

sockmonkey Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 It's not a matter of stacking boxes in the middle of the store and keeping them there for customers to trip over, it's a matter of the deliveryman walking through my store and past customers while carrying the boxes (stacked on a dolly) to me for a signature before I'm able to take them to the back for unpacking.

Jane42 Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 It's one thing recycyling a box that has no "advertising" on it, and quite another to be ultimately advertising for some one else to save a few cents. If you really HAD to use that box, you could simply flip it inside out.Really not cool, though, to charge a handling fee and then use materials advertising some one elses product.Since alot of us do not have our own shops, it wouldn't occur to us that OUR customers may frown on a shop having a box "labeled" Mouse Traps (or any other pest control items) being delivered while I was shopping for my B & B. The store I used to work for had deliveries brought through the front door - we did not have a different delivery area in the back....

TheQueen Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 Oh, for crap sake, this is a box being used to ship supplies, NOT finished products. And the shipper is recycling. Who gives a rat's behind (pun intended) what the box says. And advertising by using a recycled box? You've gotta be kidding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
