Saw a whole fort built from appliance boxes behind the laundromat on 9th, had to ask about it | Cardboard Box Forts

I was cutting through the alley behind the laundromat on 9th street last Tuesday and saw three kids had built this wild two story fort out of fridge and washer boxes. The thing that got me was they had cut little square windows and taped clear plastic wrap over them so it actually looked like glass. They told me the washer boxes were the best part since they are way thicker than regular shipping boxes. I went home and dug through my recycling for anything sturdy but it was all thin amazon stuff. Where do you guys even find the heavy duty boxes besides waiting for someone to buy a new fridge?
