It depends on the size of the box.

-- If it's one of the boxes printed on a sheet of graph paper,
then he should report the measurement in millimeters.

-- If it's the box that his new smartphone arrived in, then
he should probably use centimeters.

-- If it's the box that the new tractor was shipped to his
grandfather's farm in, then meters is the best unit.
