Short answer: yes
Longer answer: are you using the case-packed boxes that came from the manufacturer? Or are you creating your own "cases"? Shipping boxes should not have any bar codes or hazmat or import information in them. If they do, remove it or cover it. Used boxes have to still be able to handle another round of shipping. If the boxes are not sturdy, don't reuse them.

lordy Don't USE the boxes from HomeDepot or WalMart or old amazon boxes you have from your own orders and those single use USPS boxes or similar will not hold up to another use and abuse in the warehouses as they move your stuff to other DC's

Hi @Seller_xjafFq3AVDpcS, I think River Retail gives sage advice above but I would certainly want to underscore that the "answer" here would be dependent upon what type of information is on those boxes and what condition they are in. For instance, standard, "blank" corrugate in good condition that will hold up to multiple shipments wouldn't be the same as something with a brand or barcodes or hazmat info already on it that may not pertain to your product, or boxes in less than optimal condition.
