To

give you a feel for what the 16" x 10" x 10" moving box holds here are a few
examples: Three of the heavier items that many people will pack in the small
moving box are CD’s, canned goods, and books. The weight of these items will be
somewhere around 35 - 45 pounds.

It's almost like CD manufacturers had this box in mind when they were deciding
on the size of a CD because 144 fits perfectly in this box with little movement.
Also, the weight will top out at about 37 pounds.

The heaviest items you'll probably pack in this box are canned goods with an
assortment of 40 canned goods filling it up and the weight is around 45 pounds.
