Choosing the right postal packaging
Boxes vs Envelopes
Use postal boxes for fragile, multi-item or heavier goods where edge/crush resistance matters. Select postal envelopes for flat, slim or lightweight products to reduce postage and DIM charges.

| Use case | Why choose postal boxes | Suggested add-ons |
|---|---|---|
| Fragile items | Better edge/crush resistance than envelopes | Edge protection, paper bubble |
| Gifts/subscriptions | Premium look with easy opening | Tissue, branded labels |
| Mixed orders | Space for multiple SKUs and inserts | Cardboard sheets, loose fill |
