What Are Shipping Boxes?

Shipping boxes are essential packaging solutions designed to protect and transport goods safely from one location to another. They are widely used in various industries, including e-commerce, electronics and fashion. These boxes come in different shapes, sizes and materials to cater to the specific needs of businesses and consumers alike.

What Materials Are Shipping Boxes Made From?

Shipping boxes are typically made from corrugated cardboard, which is known for its durability and strength. Corrugated cardboard is composed of three layers: an inner liner, an outer liner and a fluted middle layer that provides cushioning and protection. This material is not only strong, but also lightweight and recyclable, making it an eco-friendly choice for packaging. For businesses looking to minimize their environmental impact, we offer strong boxes for shipping made from 90% recycled materials. These boxes are fully recyclable and can be reused thanks to an additional adhesive strip.

What Sizes and Types of Shipping Boxes Are Available?

Shipping boxes come in a variety of sizes and types to meet different shipping requirements. Whether you need large, long boxes for shipping bulk items or small shipping boxes for individual products, there is a solution for every need. Large Boxes for Shipping Large shipping boxes are ideal for transporting bigger or multiple items Ð not only across the UK, but also internationally. These boxes provide ample space and are designed to withstand the rigors of shipping. They are perfect for e-commerce businesses that need to ship large orders or oversized products. Small Shipping Boxes Small shipping boxes are perfect for sending smaller items such as electronics, fashion accessories, or single products. These boxes are compact yet sturdy, ensuring that your items arrive in perfect condition.

Boxes for International Shipping

When it comes to international shipping, it's crucial to choose boxes that can endure long-distance travel and various handling conditions. Our boxes for international shipping are designed to provide maximum protection and durability, ensuring that your products reach their destination safely.

What Are Custom Shipping Boxes?

Custom shipping boxes allow businesses to personalize their packaging to reflect their brand identity. These boxes can be printed with logos, brand colors, and other design elements to create a unique unboxing experience for customers. For example, our personalized shipping box for smartphones is made from durable corrugated cardboard and can be customized inside and out with CMYK or multicolor printing. It also features two adhesive strips and internal compartments for the device and accessories.

How to Choose the Right Shipping Box for Your Needs?

Choosing the right shipping box depends on several factors, including the size and weight of the items being shipped, the shipping distance, and the level of protection required. Here are some tips to help you select the perfect box: 1. Size and Weight: Ensure the box is appropriately sized for the items to prevent movement during transit. 2. Material: Opt for strong shipping boxes made from corrugated cardboard for added protection. 3. Customization: Consider custom shipping boxes to enhance your brand's visibility and create a memorable unboxing experience. 4. Environmental Impact: Choose eco-friendly options made from recycled materials to reduce your carbon footprint.

FAQ

How eco-friendly are these plain and custom mailing boxes?

Our selection of mailing boxes is extensive, making it difficult to sum up their environmental impact in just a few words. However, we can guarantee that all of our plain and custom mailer boxes are made from corrugated cardboard containing at least 60% recycled content and are FSC® certified, meaning that the paper pulp is sourced from responsibly managed forests and mills. If the cardboard is not finished with plastic lamination, it can be recycled, biodegraded, and industrially composted. To learn more about the eco properties of each packaging product, simply visit the product page. → In the meantime, you can learn more about the eco properties of our packaging here.

How many mailing boxes do I need to order to get a custom print?

With Packhelp, you can customise your printed mailing boxes with professional prints starting at just 30 pieces per order, making it easy to test the waters. For more customised options, like the Double-Sided Mailer Box, the minimum order quantity is 1500 pieces.

Does the price include the cost of my design (logo and graphics)?

The cost of printing your designs is included in the pricing, but keep in mind that custom printing options and finishes like hot-stamping or embossing/debossing are not included. These customizations typically require a minimum order of 1500 boxes.

How do delivery times vary for standard versus customised mailer boxes?

Unlike our custom mailer boxes that you have to design and we need to prepare, unprinted mailer boxes are available in our warehouse for immediate dispatch. Delivery can be as swift as the next day across most UK areas. Should you require custom printing, the process is efficient. With Packhelp's express services, orders can be dispatched in just three days. Ensure your packaging aligns with your brand's quality and message.

What are the typical price ranges for bulk orders of mailer boxes?

The cost of our mailer boxes is determined by factors such as size, customisation, quantity, and more. For reference, an order of 1500 standard-sized, unprinted mailer boxes (FEFCO427) is priced around £2300, equating to £1.53 each.

How can small businesses ensure their mailer boxes are compliant with postal regulations?

Packhelp offers a range of mailing boxes designed specifically to meet the dimensions set by Royal Mail and prevalent courier companies. By opting for these pre-sized boxes, businesses can confidently dispatch their goods, knowing they comply with industry standards. Primary postal and courier services will accept them without issue.
