We get ours from Iron Mountain and the box lids measure, at the widest
point, 12-1/2" to 12-3/4".

Hey Folks...

Help!  {:{)}

We're in need of replacing our box supplier who we've had for about six
years, and I'm hoping to find a good replacement.  We use between 3,000
and 5,000 a year of the standard letter by legal RM box...

Here is the problem I'm running in to:  Two of the vendors I'm working
with (Paige and the Box Company) have sent me box samples, and I find
that the width of the lid (being the widest part), is 13 inches.  Every
box I have used up to this date has been 12.5 inches wide...

A half inch isn't a big deal, but I find that with our 4 box, 54 inch
shelving, 13 inch boxes become just too tight on the shelf width.

So here is my question:  Does anybody have a suggestion of a good box
supplier that makes a standard (not accordion bottom) fold-together
Records Management box, which comes in at no wider at the lid than 12.5
inches?

Please feel free to e-mail me directly with any suggestions.

Thanks, everybody!
