Tall Boxes for Shipping
Golf Clubs, Fishing Rods!

Tall boxes make packaging and shipping tall and narrow items such as golf clubs and lamps a breeze. It's always easier to handle these types of items when they are upright. That’s why we like boxes that are loaded from the end for this type of job.

They provide easier insertion and require less tape or staples to seal.

Some of our customers prefer tall boxes in place of mailing tubes for easier storage of drawings, posters or artwork. They're not bad for storing a broom or two either!

Dimensions
Dimensions for boxes are usually given in the sequence of length, width and height (LxWxH) and represent the inside opening of an assembled box.

Standard Sizes
These are the most readily available sizes. Boxes are sold by the Bundle or Bale quantity.

Weight
Corrugated boxes can get heavy very quickly, especially if you're talking about a bigger size box. Keep this in mind when you determine how many you need as this can effect your shipping options.

UPS and FEDEX typically have size and weight limitations so shipping via motor freight is usually the best and cheapest option for larger quantities.

Strength
Boxes are usually specified in a manner such as...200#/ECT-32. This refers to the two tests typically used to determine strength: the Bursting Test and Edge Crush Test.

This information is printed on the Box Manufacturers Certificate located on the bottom flap of the box. We highly recommend that you never exceed the gross weight limit for the box.

Pictorial Markings
These types of markings are applied to shipping boxes to convey handling instructions without the limitations of language. We highly recommended pictorial markings if the package is going to be shipped internationally.

Storage and handling
Always store corrugated boxes in areas that avoid temperature extremes and fluctuations. Make sure to avoid crushing the corrugated in any way, especially the corners.

Custom Printing
Printing can be a tricky thing on corrugated. Colors don't always turn out they way they would on other papers. A great option is to print your logo or other information on a label and place that on your box. We recommend you check out our custom boxes for more info on printing.
