Ensure your customers always have that ‘wow’ moment when they open your boxes, and build those positive experience pillars with shipping boxes that are made to last.

High-quality shipping boxes give you, the business owner, the necessary peace of mind. Corrugated cardboard boxes come in a number of styles and sizes to best suit your needs and budget.

SHIPPING TIP 3: MAXIMISE SAVINGS BY DESIGNING CUSTOM SHIPPING BOXES

If you are looking for the easiest way to save money on shipping, custom boxes are for you. By designing boxes specifically for your business, you will never spend extra money on void fill to stop your items from moving around and you lessen the weight and size of your packages, potentially putting them into a smaller shipping price bracket!

SHIPPING TIP 4: HAVE CLEAR SHIPPING GUIDELINES

By establishing clear shipping guidelines from the get-go, you will save yourself and your customers any confusion. Having a shipping FAQ with order processing times, shipping tracking details, return information and more will save you time and cover you in case anything arrives broken or doesn’t arrive at all!

SHIPPING TIP 5: USE YOUR CARDBOARD SHIPPING BOXES TO CREATE BRAND AWARENESS, AND HIGHLIGHT YOUR BRAND PHILOSOPHIES

There is no better way to show off your brand and create awareness than with your boxes! Jetbox offers Custom Printed RSC Boxes, where you can print your logo or other design right onto the box! 

It is also important to invest in shipping boxes that align with your core values. If you are an environmentally conscious brand, then Jetbox’s shipping boxes are the perfect choice.
