I have a cake coming up and they are going to pick it up. It will be a 3 tiered stacked (and fully assembled/doweled) cake. I need to put this cake in a big box preferrably 15/16" in size. Where would I find a box this big? My local cake supply store and Michaels only carries the 12" (x 5") size it wont be big enough.
TIA!
Bakery Craft makes delivery system boxes:

I use boxes from walmart, the shipping boxes.
Okay, THANK YOU all for your replies! Pretty much you just use regular ol' shipping type boxes then I see. I just realized there are no "cake boxes" for this. Now I know where to start, I'll try Lowes first.

I guess you didn't see the link I provided for Bakery Craft Delivery System boxes. They are designed for this purpose.
Available:
17.5 x 17.5 x 11.5
22 x 22 x 15.5
Box, lid, and pad inserts to fit the shape of your cake's base.
They also have extender tabs available to add to the top of the box if you require a little more height or worry that the lid won't completely clear the top of the cake.
I use shipping boxes from WalMart or Home Depot. I turn the box on its side so the cake will slide in and out easily. Instead of using round cake boards, I cut 2 cardboard squares to fit the box and tape them together and cover in paper. That way the cake board fits the box perfectly and won't slide around in there. Then I put a small piece of tape over the flaps, so all I have to do is remove the tape and slide the cake out.
I use moving boxes too. I just put a square of nonskid drawer liner inside the box, under the cake board. I have never had one shift in the box at all.
