I do frown on these huge styro containers for a lot of things. Waaaaay bigger than they need to be.
Speaking of way bigger containers, look at packaging from sales at Amazon and other online vendors. My wife does a lot of online buying. A couple days ago she received a large box, about a foot tall and wide, and a foot and a half long. At the bottom of the packing material was her item, a one inch square by 3 inch tall box of some cosmetic. Other vendors like TEMU would put that in an envelope for delivery into your mailbox. But not Amazon.
I wonder, what do they ship Styrofoam in?
