The Complete Guide to Custom Shipping Boxes

What a shipping box has to do

A shipping box has one essential job, to get your product to the customer undamaged, and a second job that many brands miss, to carry your brand to the door. Custom shipping boxes from The Best Price Boxes are built from strong corrugated board in the grade your product needs, and they can be printed so even a shipping box reinforces your brand. We make them with no minimum order, so you order exactly what you need.

Corrugated strength, matched to your product

Shipping boxes are made from corrugated board, and the strength comes from the flute grade and whether it is single or double wall. Lighter grades suit light products, while heavier and double wall grades protect heavier or fragile items and stack better in transit. Match the grade to your product weight and fragility, and our team will recommend the right build so nothing arrives damaged.

Sizing to control cost

Size matters for shipping cost because carriers often charge by dimensional weight, which factors in the box size, not just the product weight. A box cut to your product keeps dimensional weight low and your shipping bill down, and it protects the product by not letting it shift. Right sizing is one of the simplest ways to save money on every shipment.

Printing and branding

A plain brown box does the job, but a printed shipping box turns the delivery into a brand moment. Print your logo and colors, or keep it simple with a one color print, whatever fits your brand and budget. Even light branding on a shipping box builds recognition at the doorstep.

Cost and no minimum
