Uline.com - buy the minimum order of 14" cube boxes (25 pieces), I think that comes to around $45 - then just keep doing the PO shops till you use all the boxes.
If it is the MSP I think it is, they accept a scanned copy of the receipt for the 25 box lot and a reimbursement request for $1.75 or so, and have an endless supply of the shipping shops. Did you have to ship canned goods to a food pantry?
Not a quick fix, but it should be a reliable one. Thinking more about this as I type, check with the scheduler first since the receipt will be dated after your shops.
