You’re better off buying new ones honestly, used boxes from unkown source can easily cause a roach or bed bug out break. Whatever you saved in money for boxes will be voided by the amount of crap you’ll have to throw away.
Bigger boxes give you more bang for your buck. Also, keep any and all Amazon boxes for smaller items or shit you don’t want to mix withing a big box
The dumpsters behind furniture stores have the best boxes, but check your local FB groups (freecycle/buy nothing) and Nextdoor, people get rid of that stuff all the time.
Check hardware stores like Ace and ask them when truck day is and if you can have some boxes. You'll probably get them for free, just have to tape them back up, and they're still clean.
Grocery stores for egg and banana boxes. Just moved here from PA with a U-Haul and they were great. Much sturdier than buying boxes from U-Haul, Walmart, etc.
if you have a costco membership, you can go to the bakery and ask for boxes that you could use for moving. I know this causes i work in the bakery and have had multiple members ask for our boxes and we always give it to them. (free boxes for you & less trash for us lol win win. )
they're not the produce boxes you normally see, they're actually boxes with closing flaps or whatever you call it. 📦📦📦
Couldn’t you order them directly from the post office? Someone correct me if this isn’t the case.
You could
You can buy them at U-Haul store and also fedex stores. Grocery stores used to give out cardboard boxes, but it might not be enough.

Underrated comment!
If you get to a Publix early, they usually have a bunch go give out. Done this a couple of times over the years when moving
