With Halloween looming and often being viewed as a scary time, we thought that we would cover what could be seen as the scary side of cardboard box logistics, and put your thoughts to rest.

Whether you have just started out and are about to launch your product or service, or have been running for years and require scalability options, Quickbox are here to help with all shapes and sizes when it comes to both your business and boxes.

With Halloween comes ‘Trick or Treat’. We know that you would most probably prefer the treat (but that is a slightly tricky screen to screen) so here are some hints and tricks to help make cardboard box logistics less of a fright.

What Are The Main Things I Should Consider When Choosing My Box?

Choosing the right box for you really is down to you and your needs. To give you a head start and to help towards making the right decision for you and your business, why not check out our guide for ‘choosing the right box for your product’? You will see that we have identified four key factors to consider; customer delivery, storage, the size of your product and whether your product is fragile.

Perhaps we haven’t covered one of the factors you are thinking about, that’s not to say that we haven’t thought about it. Why not contact us today and speak to one of our friendly team members.

How Do I Know What Packaging Will Be Best For Me?

Here at Quickbox, we have heaps of past experience and this is something we are more than happy to share with you. If despite looking through our box customisation options, you are still unsure as to what would be most appropriate for your specific product, don’t hesitate to get in touch and we can point you in the right direction for your packaging journey, to begin with, us.

Can I Receive A Prototype Before I Mass Produce My Cardboard Box?

One of the great benefits of not having a minimum order requirement is that we allow you to experiment with different methods of housing your product if you want to explore a number of avenues. This will give you the peace of mind that you are making your product packaging the best it can be, before scaling your packaging requirements up to a full production run, no matter how many boxes you may require. Having the ability to see the finished product with every box you order also shows you exactly how your product will be once the customer receives their goods. Allowing you to try before you buy. You can experience this with clothes, so why not be able to do this with boxes as well?

What Happens If My Business Rapidly Grows?

Scalability is not an issue here at Quickbox as we are able to produce unlimited quantities of products. You can be assured that no matter the growth your company experiences, we will be able to support you every step of the way, meeting your demand and putting a smile on your face. Support is one of the values we pride ourselves on here at Quickbox. As you grow, we can grow with you to ensure that your requirements are not only being met but that we are exceeding your expectations.

How Quickly Am I Able To Receive My Packaging?

Although this varies depending on the box design and level of complexity, no job should exceed more than three weeks, with plain boxes being able to be with you in a week. We understand that with a business it is important to get your product to your customer within a good time in order to maintain the excitement for your customers over whatever they may be receiving. With this being said, that is why our lead time is market-leading, especially considering the design process and obtaining the correct materials in order to make bespoke items to the highest of standards.

What Impact Will My Boxes Have On The Planet?

Sustainability and recycling is often a scary thought for businesses. You are busy concentrating on the daily running’s of your company and recycling or sustainability, for this reason, may not be at the top of your list. That is why we ensure that our cartons are made from paper from sustainable sources. You can be assured that you are taking the steps toward being responsible just by working with us. We take recycling seriously and to help you to also, here is more information for recycling packaging.
