How to Choose the Right Box

Start with these simple questions:

1. How much weight will you put in each box?

• Light items (under 30 lbs): 2-3 ply walls
• Medium items (30-60 lbs): 4-5 ply walls
• Heavy items (over 60 lbs): 6-8 ply walls

2. What size do you need?

• Standard size: 48″ × 40″ (matches most pallets)
• Height varies: 24″ to 48″ tall
• Measure your items first

3. What condition is acceptable?

• Grade A: Looks almost new, lasts longer
• Grade B: Shows light wear, costs less

Example: A warehouse storing auto parts would choose 5-ply boxes because parts are heavy. A clothing store might use 3-ply boxes because clothes are light.

Understanding Box Shapes

Rectangle boxes:

• Stack easily

Octagon boxes:

• Stronger corners
• Better for round items
• Take up more space

Bottom Styles Explained

Full-flap bottom:

• Completely closed
• Prevents small items from falling out
• Best for loose parts or powder

Cut-side bottom:

• Has openings on sides
• Easier to lift with forklifts
