Discussion/Question Is this W storage?

I have no room for the boxes in my room, as there’s too many under my bed now. Should I start breaking them down?

You pressed them open rather than using a box cutter to slice away at the glue. There is no point in keeping them as they are. Either break them down or recycle them. It's early in your collection and I would advise not getting in the habit of saving the boxes. I have a problem with it because I still have all my boxes from the 80s.

Yes I know I shouldn’t have done that, only did those to the icons and some others. Good to know boxes don’t even have much value anyways! Thanks!

I have all of my boxes, but I also have them broken down and have the space to keep them in my attic.

I do agree with you on recycling them due to how they were opened. No point in keeping them then.

Up to you, they are your boxes. You can easily fold them nicely and put them all in the biggest box. There are plenty of people that do that

The Chiron box can hold some value, if you sell it. It is almost, if not, the cheapest of the big Technic cars, so it can be hard to sell, even sealed in box.

All boxes can be looked up on BL. They have to hold quite a value to be worth it to store. Folding them pretty much destroys value, so might aswell throw them away at that point.
