Can I make my own shipping box?

Can you print inside the boxes?

Yes! We can print on the inside of any of our corrugated box styles. This includes Mailers, Shipping Boxes, and Tuck Tops (our secret menu product!). Product Boxes are currently limited to printing on the exterior only. You can even use our online box designer to design the inside of your custom boxes. For Shippers and Tuck Tops, we currently require a 2D dieline template be submitted for both the interior and exterior so we can set up your order as a custom order. You can also submit designs this way for our Mailer boxes, if you prefer to build on a 2D Illustrator template instead of our free 3D box design tool.

The dotted lines represent the height of our item. Since the height of what we are packaging is 2” then that is the distance we need to add around the perimeter of our entire box.

For the large flaps, you’ll include the 2” as well as half of the items width. This will ensure that the box will fold up completely and you will be able to seal it closed. You’ll see what this looks like at the end of this post. For the inside flaps, the total width doesn’t matter because the outer flaps will fold over top of them. I typically use 4 inches.
