When you clean out his/her cage it is okay to put him in a box. make sure he won't escape. But PLEASE don't use an ordinary box as his real cage.

Also:

Make sure you use an open topped box so he can breathe.

Ensure that the sides are high so that he cannot jump out, especially if he is not tame.

Don't leave him in a box (especially if it small for a long time because he will probably start to feel stressed and trapped.

Yes, they will in fact be more happy in a normal sized cage. Just make sure that there are not any holes big enough for them to crawl through and get out.

Can a hamster live in a cardborad box?

I would have t say no. I tried doing that when I first got my hamster and it chewed through the box. I have no idea how, but she did! I suggest you put the hamster in a regular cage, because most hamsters like to climb on the vars. They might chew through the box and climb out.
