What is better to save boxes from things you buy or whenever you move again put them in bags.

Like printer box or simple things that come in a box.

Answer 1

For some things, like a printer, I think it is best to save the box. However, I wouldn't keep original boxes if you have a lot of regular, small, medium boxes left. You can fold them down and slide them behind the headboard of a bed, under the bed, or behind and/or under any other large furniture.
At least, this way, if you save the regular boxes, you'll have something to put that printer in when you are ready to move again.
There are some things that are easier to pack in their original boxes like a lamp or anything with a mirror or anything oddly shaped. It's hard to wrap breakables if they have lots of twists and turns or are wide then skinny.
It's worth it to find a place for the boxes, trust me! I've moved 10x in the last 4 years from apartment to apartment to house to house. I've lost some things I valued, even after wrapping them. If I had had the original box I could have kept the packaging.

I try to save the box at least until the warrenty is up. After that I toss it
