Good morning Sandra,
I have this problem occasionally and we use cardboard from empty boxes our warehouse cuts up for us. We just bend them to into a "V" to support the empty space and make notation that the box in not full so we can insert other like records at a later date.
Hope that helps.
Respectfully submitted,

Subject: Box Filling Material
Good Morning,
Maybe y'all can help me out. What do you use for filler material when a storage box is not quite full. Both for archival microfilm or for paper storage. I took a look at office supplies and archival supplies (gaylord) and was wondering what would be my best option. I have looked at newsprint (problem with acid?), tissue paper, bubble wrap, acid free tissue, etc. I know Records Center policy generally prohibits half-full boxes, but some of the time it can't be helped especially in a very small agency like ours. As an example, I had to send two reels of microfilm containing permanent records off-site and needed to help fill up the box...
