We are pleased to once again work with ecommerce management and consulting firm Groove Commerce, who will develop and design the landing page for this project.  The landing page will resemble and seamlessly integrate with our main site.

The increase in traffic generated by the CorrugatedMailers.com will allow us to showcase our world class customer service and grow our business.

The “Deal of the Day” is updated everyday at 7am CST. There are no quantity restrictions; however, if we sell out the deal is over until the next day.  Here are a few questions we anticipate…

• Will you honor the price at a later time?
• I just bought this item yesterday.  Will you refund me the difference?
• If I buy “X” amount can I get a better price?
• When will this product be “The Deal of the Day” again?
• What is tomorrow’s “The Deal of the Day”?

The answers to the above anticipated questions are; No, No, No, We don’t know, and We won’t tell.  Anyway, we hope everyone gets the point.

We recommend clicking on the following link and book marking the page.  Why?  So you can easily check the “The Deal of the Day”…Daily.

• Use a sturdy Corrugated Shipping Box.  Make sure the corners and flaps are intact.  If you are reusing a box, do not use a box with tears or holes.
• Put protective wrapping such as 3/16″ height Bubble Wrap around the item.  If packing more than one item into a box, wrap each item individually.
• Center your item in the box and allow for 2″ to 3″ of packing material to be placed around the item (this includes the area underneath the item).  We recommend using Packing Peanuts or bubble wrap as cushioning.  The goals here are to suspend and stabilize the contents.  The items should not touch any portion of the box or not move around during transportation.
• If shipping multiple items be sure that they do not touch each other and that there is at least 2″ between each item.
• Tape your box on the top and bottom seem (include the left and right sides) using a Carton Sealing Tape.
• Put the appropriate Shipping Label on the outside of the box to encourage proper handling.

Remember that poor packing can lead to damaged items or cause your customers to be critical of the item you sold them.  In either case, they might not come back.

Lastly, even the best of packing jobs can end up getting damaged; therefore, we do recommend insuring your packages with your carrier.

1. Is the item being shipped fragile or large?

If yes, ship the item in Corrugated Shipping Boxes.

If no, consider one of the following mailing products; Bubble Mailers, Mailing Tubes, Poly Mailers, or Rigid Mailers. Mailers are a low cost alternative to boxes and are usually less expensive to ship.

2. If using corrugated shipping boxes, decide how the item(s) will be protected during transportation?

The most common methods of protecting the contents of a shipping box is wrapping the item in Bubble Wrap, suspending the item using Packing Peanuts, or filling the box with Kraft Paper in effort to stabilize the item.

3. Factor in the other supplies needed to ship the item(s) which include; Carton Sealing Tape, Shipping Labels, Packing List Envelopes, and a Tape Gun.

Now calculate the amount of materials it takes to package one item and multiply by the number of shipments per month. This will give you an understanding of how much packaging material is needed on a monthly basis. Finally, divide the cost of materials by the number of items you ship per month to arrive at your “per item” packaging cost.

Other things to consider:

• Don’t forget to insure your package. Both UPS and FedEx offer free insurance up to $100 per shipment. The US Postal Service does not offer free insurance.
• If you have an employee packing, you will have to calculate labor charges to cover the “time” aspect of packing.
• Buy your packaging supplies in bulk to save money.

• Hundreds of New Products
• Improved Site Navigation
• Quantity Discount Tables
• Simplified Checkout Process
• Blog driven Shipping and Packing Tips

Other changes geared toward bettering our customers’ experience include; our sitewide “Have A Question?” forms, our Eco Information page, and our UPS Transit Time map.

One thing that has not changed is our dedication to providing exceptional customer service.  As we always say, “We know our success is dependent upon yours”.
