How To Specify Storage Box
A short buying guide for the points that decide price, lead time and whether the reorder repeats correctly.
- Fix the internal dimensions against what the box has to hold.
- Decide whether the box stacks, nests or does both.
- Choose between a label window, a printed panel or a plain body.
- Confirm whether the box ships flat or assembled.
- Check the carton count, because storage items are bulky and freight sensitive.

Frequently Asked Questions About Storage Box
Do storage boxes ship flat?
Flat packing is available on most constructions and lowers the freight cost. Assembled packing suits a shelf ready retail item.
Can we have a custom size?
Yes. Boxes are cut to your internal dimensions.
Can the box carry our brand?
Yes, through a printed panel, a printed label or a printed sleeve.
Do you accept OEM and ODM orders?
Yes. We work as the production department for importers and brand owners. You can send us an existing sample, a drawing or a specification and we will quote against it. Own brand printing and retail packaging are part of the normal service.
How do samples work?
Samples already held in stock are free of charge. If a new mould has to be opened or new material sourced there is a charge for it. Stock samples usually take three to five days to prepare, and a new tool or new material extends that. You comment on the sample and we remake it until it is approved.
