Packing case for Celestron 8” SCT OTA

[Moonshed]

I am not having any luck finding a supplier that sells packing cases in single units. I thought I was onto a good thing with Davpack and a triple layer cardboard box that would be plenty sturdy enough, but it’s only sold in packs of 15.

If anyone can help with a supplier I would much appreciate it. This carriage business is proving more of a challenge, and cost, than I anticipated.

Cheers

Is it one off? You'll struggle to find a supplier to do the one, if they deal with non trade at all. Try Kite. You can sometimes find packing boxes in stationery stores too or storage unit companies.

Is this for an ed80?

Pop into your local self store facility. They sell boxes of various sizes in singles.

Thanks. Could you please be more specific about the “local self store facility” as I don’t know what you mean.

Thanks
