uhaul... you can buy them, then the ones you don't use, return them. A lot of other places won't let you return unused boxes.
edit: and if its for wheels... go at least 2 to 3 inches bigger on either side of the wheel and fill with lots of packing popcorn, bubble wraps and other foamies to protect it.

If it is for wheels, hit up a local tire shop and ask if they have spares

Saw some at Staples (by brentwood) and they were about $5-8 each around that size.
They're cheaper at home depot though http://www.homedepot.ca/product/medi...ing-box/924026

Ya you're kind of limited with McDonalds but hey, they're free and you can take as much as you want.
Didn't think you'd take my answer seriously haha
