Solutions

What You Can Request

Custom-size box sourcing is available through partner suppliers in our network. These are the most common requests.

Custom Dimensions

Need a specific size? Send the length, width and depth you are after, and partner suppliers can quote on sourcing or producing it.

Hard-to-Find Used Sizes

If you need an unusual size, a supplier in our network may have a suitable used box. It is worth asking before you order new.

Wall Type and Strength

Choose single, double or triple wall to suit the load. If you know the ECT or burst strength you need, include that as well.

Gaylords and Bulk Containers

Custom sizing is not only for small boxes. Bulk containers can also be requested to fit specific pallets, parts or racking.

Printing

Want a logo or handling marks on your boxes? Mention it in your request. Print options vary by partner supplier.

Repeat Orders

If you expect to reorder a custom size, say so in your request and ask the supplier how repeat runs work.

Specifications

What to Include in Your Request

The more a supplier knows, the more useful a quote will be. These details are a good place to start.

Inside Dimensions

Give length, width and depth, measured on the inside of the box. For a product, measure it with any padding and allow a little room to spare.

Weight and Contents

Say what goes in the box and how much it weighs. This helps a supplier suggest a wall type and strength that fit.

Quantity

Give the number of boxes you need now, and whether you expect to reorder. Quantity can affect both the options and the quote.

Delivery Location

Include your location and when you need the boxes. Availability depends on partner suppliers in your area.

Process

How Custom Sourcing Works

Five simple steps from your specifications to boxes in hand, with partner suppliers doing the sourcing and fulfilment.

Send Your Specifications

Use the quote form or email us with your dimensions, strength requirements, quantity and location. A rough idea is fine if you are still deciding.

02

We Match Your Request

We pass your specifications to partner suppliers in our network who may be able to help in your area.

03

Supplier Follow-Up

A partner supplier follows up and may ask for more detail, such as how the box will be used or how it needs to close.

04

Quote

The supplier sets the price, minimum quantity, and terms. Ask about samples if you want to test a box before a full order.

05

Production or Sourcing

If you accept, the supplier sources or produces your boxes and arranges delivery or pickup. Timing is agreed directly with them.

Boxes and bulk containers sized around specific parts, racks or production lines.

Automotive & Industrial

Heavy-duty containers for large or awkward components, usually in double or triple wall.

Warehousing & 3PL

Containers sized to make better use of pallet footprints and rack space.

Agriculture & Produce

Field-pack and bulk boxes sized around harvest and distribution needs.

Retail & Brick-and-Mortar

Boxes for store deliveries, along with printed boxes where a supplier can offer them.

FAQ

Custom Solutions FAQ

Questions about custom-size boxes? Here are answers to the most common inquiries.

How long does a custom box order take?

Timing depends on the size, the quantity and the supplier. A partner supplier follows up with what is possible, so include your deadline in your request.

Is there a minimum order quantity?

Minimums vary by partner supplier and by the type of box. Tell us the quantity you need and the supplier can confirm what they are able to do.

What do I need to include in my request?

Inside dimensions, what the box will hold, the weight of the contents, the quantity, and your location. Printing and wall type are helpful if you know them.

Can I get a custom size in used boxes?

Sometimes. Used stock depends on what suppliers have, so an exact match is not always possible. A close used size may be an option, or a supplier can quote on a new custom box.

Can I get a sample first?

Some partner suppliers may offer samples. Mention it in your request and ask the supplier directly.

What does a custom box cost?

Pricing is by quote from partner suppliers. Size, material, wall type, printing and quantity all affect the price.
