My wee family is relocating down to the South Island early in the New Year so wanted to ask if anyone out there has any moving boxes etc. lying around you no longer require or may be looking to get rid of?

We have found the My Food Bag boxes and wool lined chiller bags come in very handy so definitely if you have some of these lying around we would be interested in hearing from you.

Thanks and wishing a Happy New Year to all of you reading this!!
