Custom shipping boxes are corrugated cartons printed with your brand and sized to the product, so it travels with less void fill and arrives in a box that looks like yours. E-commerce brands, candle makers, and subscription shops order them in place of plain brown cartons. There is no minimum order, so one sample carton is as easy to request as a pallet, and if you bring a written quote for the same specs, we beat it. Start with white shipping boxes for a clean printed look, or candle shipping boxes for jars and tins that need a snug, protective fit. Send the product dimensions, weight, and a quantity, and we return a dieline and a quote.
A shipping box that is too big costs you twice: once in void fill and once in carrier charges. Carriers bill by dimensional weight when a box is large and light, so extra air in the carton turns directly into postage. Measure the product, add the thickness of any padding or insert, then add a small clearance so it slides in without force. Give us those as inside dimensions, listed length by width by height.
Corrugated board gets its strength from the fluted layer between two liners. Single wall handles most parcels, and double wall suits heavy or stacked loads. A 32 ECT single-wall rating is a common general-purpose spec, and heavier items call for stronger board. Tell us the product weight and whether the box is stacked on a pallet, because those two numbers decide the board more than the outside dimensions do.
For glass, ceramics, and candles, the box alone is not enough. Dividers, corrugated inserts, or fitted foam keep items from touching each other and from hitting the walls during a drop. Candle jars are a classic case: they chip at the rim and crack at the base when they bang together, so a snug cell for each one matters. See candle shipping boxes, and for the inserts themselves look at custom packaging inserts.
A one-color logo on kraft is the plain, honest choice and works for B2B shipments. A white printed exterior, like white shipping boxes, reads more premium and takes full-color artwork. Printing the inside is a cheap way to make the opening feel considered. Keep any required carrier or hazard markings clear of the artwork.
If the box needs to look like retail packaging and ship at the same time, mailer boxes are built for it. For plain general-purpose cartons, compare cardboard boxes.
Send the inside dimensions, the product weight, whether it is fragile, artwork, and a quantity. The quantity can be one. We return a dieline and a quote, and you can adjust before anything is printed.
No. There is no minimum order, so you can order a single box to test the fit and the print or thousands for a full shipping program. Many brands order one sample, ship it to themselves, and check how it holds up.
Measure the product plus any padding, then add a small clearance and list the inside dimensions as length, width, height. A tight box saves on void fill and dimensional weight charges.
That depends on the product weight and how the box is stacked. Single-wall corrugated suits most parcels, and double wall suits heavy or stacked loads. Tell us the weight and we help match the board.
Give each jar its own cell using a divider or insert so jars cannot touch, and size the box so nothing can slide. Fragile items need padding on every side.
Yes. Many brands print a pattern or a short message on the inside so the opening feels considered. Send artwork for both the outside and the inside with your request.
A shipping box is a plain strong carton, usually taped closed. A mailer box folds from one piece, locks without tape, and looks like retail packaging. Choose based on how much the unboxing matters.
