Used boxes with logos, can I use them?
As a new seller just getting started can anyone tell me if I can use boxes I have spare to begin with, they seem to match the size requirements and I am aware I would need to cover any other labels, but where does that leave me in relation to logos on the box I plan to use, the instructions say nothing about this, is that because using old boxes like this is strictly not to be done? Should I just cover the logos as I would if they were labels?

I recycle packaging all the time.
Usually use a thick black marker pen to obliterate any obvious logos etc., depending on what it is.

Yeah that’s an idea. It is a very big brand so wouldn’t want to cause confusion

If you are sending goods to Amazon to fulfil on your behalf, then NO.
If you are just packaging goods into an outer box with packing materals and you are shipping yourself, then YES.
If the latter, it is best to cross through with a marker any brand/model name.
You can also put a sticker on the box, saying you are doing your bit to recycle and ‘Green’ by reusing boxes - that way unlikely to get any complaints.

Ive sent to FBA in branded boxes for years just black out any barcodes.

Someone once sent me a set of trading cards packaged in a cereal box, so I think you can use anything, as long as it is secure.

As mentioned above you can use anything but bare in mind what customers first opinion will be.
If I receive anything new I have ordered that comes in reused packing I think OMG it’s gona be trash… Which is not always the case Tbf though just first impressions.

I post my own items and have never bought a box in 7 years (20000+ items)
Using any and everything as long as secure.
