I almost never buy a new package for shipping. I have a huge collection of bubble mailers from Amazon. I used to take them from work, too (used), because the secretaries were always throwing a bunch away. In the past two years, though, the supply has dwindled, and they've had to order them to be purchased, so I can't take them anymore.
If you have one big box, you can always "make" a few small boxes. Have you ever watched professional movers. For special items in your home, they will cut and bend larger boxes to fit. I learned it from them, and will do it when necessary.
