Question
What's the minimum order for custom shipping boxes?
Answer
Minimum order quantities for custom shipping boxes depend mainly on the printing method, since each method has different setup requirements.
| Printing method | Typical minimum |
|---|---|
| Digital printing | 25-50 boxes |
| Flexographic printing | 250-500 boxes |
- Digital printing suits small runs and design testing with no plates.
- Flexographic printing lowers per-unit cost at higher volumes but needs plate setup.
- For very small quantities, custom labels or stickers on plain boxes are a cost-effective alternative while you test designs.
