All the motorcycle jacket hangers that I've gotten over the years are like this.

Can also search for those and find heavy duty hangers meant for leathers, my leather jacket weighs 9lbs! Your regular clothes will be just fine.

our storage unit place had a little debbie snack truck that would throw it's boxes in their dumpster every tuesday afternoon, and they were always clean and rigid and good boxes. this was good info for many moves.

I don't think it matters "what kind of box", you just need to find a place near you that doesn't want them.

i've bought like, 6 boxes in my life. there is no BIFL cardboard box. just get some gently used boxes and tape em up real good.

I get interlocking stackable vegetable boxes at costco from the box bin. Other stores have them too but costco has more of the larger sized ones. If you need the top covered get a smaller box and put it on top without anything in it. The best part is they are FREE

Reply about your bullet points ^ Caveat: I have zero experience with induction.

Depends on your fuel. Propane produces a hotter flame than natural gas. I have used both.

Simmers, eh, I have a very old (32 years) Hardwick, and I use a heat diffuser when I need a low heat for simmering, depending on the cookware I'm using.

I agree with pita to clean, because my range does not have sealed burners! That option was available, but was above my budget when I bought it. I think they are pretty much standard nowadays, though. :)

I guess a comparison of costs of electricity vs natural gas/propane could be a factor in OP's decision. It was in mine.
