That's a big box. I hope you're not putting anything heavy in something that size. Depending on where you are, moving companies will sell you boxes and deliver them. They are expensive but they'll be selling you ones they're happy to use themselves.
As a mover, while you can get free boxes in supermarkets but they're not well looked after and once they deform or dent they will take very little punishment before they split or crush. Also, since I guess you'll be paying someone to move your stuff, you're better off having boxes with a consistent size- it massively cuts the time it takes to load a truck.
Do not go anywhere near the boxes sold by Ikea or argos or any of the other ones with the raw cardboard finish- tape doesn't stick to them which makes them a fucking nightmare and a prime reason for stuff getting broken or lost on your move. The Ikea ones are particularly shit. Basically, as long as the cardboard has printing on the outside you're laughing. Also, don't use duct tape. It doesn't stick to any boxes. Use actual packing tape.
Something like this is better. Smoother finish and better tape sticking-ness.
If you have more questions PM me or pop over to /r/movingday. It's pretty american but every mover wishes people had just asked beforehand and loves to help.
Amazon, and order these. 20 quid for 5, and believe me that's a lot of box. They fold in and out of shape, are incredibly sturdy, no tape necessary, and are 100% reusable, got them for my last move and I'll be using the same ones for my next move. If you like, I could unfold one and take a scaled picture. The pictures of the woman holding them on the ad are completely inaccurate, they're much bigger in reality.
