Common buyer questions
What packaging do I need for ecommerce orders?
A box or mailing bag sized to the product, void fill or bubble wrap so nothing moves, plus tape and a courier label. Right-sizing keeps postage and damage down.
Poly or paper mailing bags — which should I use?
Poly mailers are waterproof, lightest and cheapest; paper mailers are kerbside recyclable with a premium feel but less water resistance.
Can you supply plastic-free packaging?
Yes — paper mailers, kraft void fill, paper gummed tape and compostable food packaging. We keep eco claims specific and accurate.
Which boxes fit Royal Mail Large Letter?
Boxes within 353 × 250 × 25mm post as a Large Letter. Our PiP postal boxes are cut to sit inside those limits so you pay the cheaper rate.
