Thanks to tantris aiming me in the right direction, my techie magazines are on their way to the Internet Archive for scanning:
They’re also accepting our 14th Edition of the Encylopædia Britannica (back when folks realized global war was a thing, but before knowing the recently concluded horror was the first), two dozen Tom Swift Jr books (largely responsible for much of the rest of my life), three years of LIFE magazines from the mid-1940s needing no further description, and a few other goodies:
They want boxes packed as solidly as possible to withstand shipping & warehousing, so I converted nearly all of my scrap cardboard into bracing and padding:
The grids are Tray Inserts generated at festi.info:
Here, try one yourself:
That will set up a grid filling the gap between two stacks of magazines in the Archive’s standard 12×18×8 inch box. You’ll also want simple rectangles for the sides & tops, but those are easy.
They preferred the laser cutter’s inevitable campfire smell to smashed boxes full of crumpled magazines. AFAICT, you might be able to crush the box, but if you did the magazines wouldn’t have survived anyway.
Now, to start packing our books …
The Smell of Molten Projects in the Morning 
When we moved, there were an extraordinary amount of banker’s boxes full of books. The heavy weight version of the boxes did well for our longish move, but I’ve seen both heavy and lighter weight boxes on the market. The last batch of (lightweight) boxes came from Staples. The last I looked, Home Depot boxes were too large for books.
HD now has “Extra Small” boxes that look OK, although a filled Archive box is close to the limit of how much paper I want to heave around.
