Choosing a Shipping Box

A Box Should Fit the Item and the Cushioning

The smallest box the item can squeeze into is not always the right box.

A proper shipping box needs enough room for protective material while still limiting unnecessary empty space and movement.

Appropriate Size Enough room for the item and protective materials
Box Strength A container suitable for the weight and contents
Good Condition No major crushing, tears, moisture damage or weakened seams
Secure Closure Properly taped and reinforced before shipment
Selection of shipping boxes available at UPV Shipping
Helpful Tip Bring the item in and compare sizes before buying.

Protection Inside the Box

Use Packing Materials With a Purpose

Different materials protect against different risks. Many packages need more than one type of protection.

01

Wrap the Surface

Use appropriate material to protect finishes, glass, corners and vulnerable exterior surfaces.

02

Cushion the Item

Create protective space between the item and the walls, top and bottom of the box.

03

Control Movement

Fill open areas appropriately so the item cannot shift freely inside the package.

04

Protect Multiple Items

Wrap items individually and use separation so they do not strike or rub against one another.

Mailers envelopes and mailing supplies

For Documents and Smaller Shipments

Mailers, Envelopes and Everyday Mailing Supplies

Not every shipment requires a corrugated box.

For appropriate items, a padded mailer, document envelope or rigid mailer may provide a simpler and lighter packaging option.

Padded Mailers For small, lightweight and non-fragile merchandise
Document Envelopes For forms, contracts, applications and business materials
Rigid Mailers For eligible documents, photographs and flat items
Shipping Labels For addressing and preparing outbound packages

The same boxes and protective materials used for shipping can also help with household projects.

Stop in when you need a few boxes for a closet, office, college move, estate cleanout, donation project or storage area.

  • Small household moves
  • College packing
  • Office organization
  • Estate cleanouts
  • Storage and seasonal items
  • Donation and collection projects

Helpful Packing Reminder

Do Not Make Every Box Too Heavy

Use smaller boxes for books, tools and other dense items. Save larger boxes for lighter household goods.

Mark boxes by room and contents before stacking or storing them.
