Default Where do you get your shipping boxes from?

I was wondering where some of you get your shipping boxes from for the shirt you sell online. Do you use boxes or do you use some sort of envelope designed for that type of shipping?
Thanks,
Shanne

I use usps and you def have to pay for some of those boxes. I would like to switch to a personalized box/envelope like Design by humans have. Does anyone know a company that does that?

uline will custom print part of their line - i know the stay-flat envelopes for sure, not positive about other styles. i think there's a 1000 piece minimum.

FYI, you can buy them in a flat kraft finish and then screen print your logo and website, 1 color, cheap, cheap, cheap. That's what we do and people love it.

Also if you are looking for specialty boxes, nashville wraps has some nice ones. They have alot of nice custom boxes and bags. Hope this helps. For standard boxes I use uline also.

The minimums are pretty high for custom packaging like that. Like 1000's.


There are some vendors listed in other threads about custom packaging like in this threadere and this one here.

Why not buy a custom printed tape to seal your boxes up with?
