Shipping Boxes
- Measurements:
Corrugated cartons are always measured L x W x H (D), with L (length) being the longest side of the box, W (width) being the adjacent side, and H (D) (height/depth) being the height of the box.
Dimensions listed are inside dimensions.
- Cushioning:
For contents requiring extra cushioning, allow 2" - 3" around all sides of the product for void fill such as Bubble Wrap® or loose fill. Allow 2" - 3" extra above and below the contents.
- Sealing:
Use a carton-sealing tape at least 2" wide. Tape must extend at least 2" over the edges of the box.
