We use our cardboard boxes to travel too. It's easy to pack & it's light. As for storing, it's also easier too because the boxes can be stacked. One thing that we do is to make sure we have the "FRAGILE" platered all over the box. Like all other suitcases with the same stickers, there is still a change the handlers will throw the box but it reduces the possibility.
To bring the box around is not too be difficult, you can just carry it with both hands or cart it around in a little 2-wheel cart. Most of the time, we cart it to the bus/taxi and it fits into the the trunk.
