In short
Book mailer boxes are slim corrugated mailers that fold around flat items such as books, planners, frames and prints, with raised edges that protect the corners. Box Sense makes them from 10 boxes, with production in 8–12 business days after proof approval. Shipping is free to any address in the USA.
About our book mailer boxes
Books arrive damaged at the corners more than anywhere else. A book mailer wraps tightly around the item so it cannot slide, and its folded edges form a bumper that takes the knocks. Publishers, online bookshops, stationery brands and print sellers rely on them.
We make book mailers in fixed sizes or with multiple score lines for different thicknesses, in kraft or white corrugated, printed with your brand, from 10 boxes.
Book mailer options
Choosing the board
| Board | Best for | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| E-flute corrugated | Mailers and light shippers | Thin, with a smooth print face |
| B-flute corrugated | Most shipping boxes | About 3 mm; good crush resistance |
| Kraft board | Natural looks | Brown fiber; dark or white ink |
What affects the price of book mailer boxes
Every box is made to order, so each order is quoted individually. These are the things that move the price most, in order:
- Size. Larger formats use more board.
- Adjustable depth. Multiple score lines for variable thickness add little cost and reduce the number of sizes you stock.
- Closure. Peel-and-seal strips and tear strips add steps.
- Quantity. The unit price falls steeply as quantity rises.
Send your size, quantity and artwork through the quick quote form for a firm price within 24 hours.
Sizing
Measure the length, width and thickness of the item. A snug fit matters more than cushioning: the mailer should hold the book still. If you ship many thicknesses, a variable-depth mailer covers them with one size.
Shipping rates
Printed books and some educational media can ship at USPS Media Mail rates in the US, which makes a light, slim mailer especially economical. Check current USPS rules for what qualifies.
