Poly mailers are the most inexpensive way to ship items, and you can even customize them to look decorative and visually appealing. There are many advantages to choosing poly mailers for your shipping needs over traditional corrugated cardboard boxes. Choosing the right poly mailer has the ability to save you money in terms of shipping costs and space.
Cost
In terms of the physical shipping package, boxes can cost significantly more than poly mailers, and if your business primarily focuses on shipping, your supply costs can increase exponentially.
Return Shipping
One of the best things about PolyPak’s wholesale decorative Re-PAK® poly mailers is that they are returnable. You ship the item to the customer, and if they need to make a return, the package is resealable. It saves the customer money from having to find appropriate shipping material, and since the bag is so light, you really only have to be concerned with item weight, which again, saves your company valuable funds. And since you already know the package is well protected, you can rest easy knowing that the item can ultimately be resold.
Weight
Boxes may be the traditional form of shipping, but they are also heavy. When you’re shipping items, every ounce counts, and a box can add a small but significant amount of weight. Poly mailers are negligible in terms of weight, which means the cost of shipping is related to the item weight only. Boxes can add as much as half a pound to your total shipping weight, and if you do a lot of business, the costs really add up.
Space Savers
In addition to the issue of weight, flat boxes occupy a lot of space in a warehouse, and stacked boxes even more. If you have a small business or sell items out of your home, space is at an even bigger premium, and a case of poly mailers will take up a fraction of the space that boxes do.
Sustainability
Saving money doesn’t always mean saving in the immediate sense. PolyPak is dedicated to sustainable growth and using recycled plastic in their manufacturing process, which has the potential to actually drive down the cost of manufacturing, and the savings can be passed on to the consumer.
