Box for my hood ... any advise please?

[DTNODYA]

I recently decided to take my aftermarket hood off my Mustang and am going to put my stocker back on today. My stock hood was sitting outside under a deck in the woods for like 4-5 years and it took me forever to clean it up. I would like to get a box to store the one I'm taking off ...

My question:

Does anyone know where I can get a box that big? I mean, if I was shipping it, where would I get a box that big? Random question, I know but if anyone can help, I'd appreciate it.

my guess would be to try an autobody. They are usually more than happy to give a big box away just because of the space it takes up in the dumpster or inside the shop.

Build it. Go get some big boxes, lay them flat, and get top work. Staple it all together, and use lots of strapping tape. Then wrap it in a tarp to store outside.
An auto shop may have something laying around. That's the easy way out.

Both of your suggestions make good sense. Thanks ...
