Cube Boxes have dimensions where the length, width and depth are all equal in size. For example a box that has dimensions of 12 x 12 x 12 is considered a cube box. Shipping boxes are priced more economically when run in large volume runs. The wholesale and retail markup on boxes is calculated based on the number of boxes tied to a single run. The same amount of labor and setup is required regardless if you are setting your equipment up to run 50 boxes or 10,000 boxes. It’s always a good rule of thumb to remember the higher the quantity in a single run the lower the cost per box taking into account the overall total square footage of material. This is why stock boxes are priced more competitively than say custom boxes.

We stock around 30 different cube box sizes. Typically cube boxes are excellent for packaging round or cylindrical objects. These type boxes are optimal to stack and can be easily fitted within the dimensions of a standard pallet. Square boxes are also used as master shipping boxes when a number of small boxes need to be nested to fit inside a corrugated shipper. This scenario of consolidating several small boxes into a large box is ideal for saving on parcel shipping charges. It also decreases the opportunity for damages incurred during the shipping process and lessens the chances for lost packages. Corrugated Boxes are strongest when the 90 degree angles of the box are maintained. Boxes that are out of square or have been slightly crushed lose a high percentage of their stacking strength.
