Subscription box

Measure your fullest month, not your lightest. Then check the outside dimensions against the carrier's band. A common target is under 1 cubic foot and under 1 pound for the cheapest USPS rate. We size the box so the outside lands just under the band you choose, and we send the outside dimensions on the proof so you can check them.

Yes. The dieline stays the same and only the art changes, so a new month is a new proof and a new print run, not a new box. We usually suggest keeping the outside constant and changing only the inside lid print, which is cheaper and keeps the parcel recognizable.

A die-cut E-flute or paperboard tray with a cavity per item. A tray adds one part to assemble and stops five items becoming a pile at the bottom. For soft goods only, printed tissue and a card are usually enough.

For a subscription, yes. A perforated strip along the front means the customer opens it without a knife and the box survives to be filmed. It adds a die-cut feature and no extra lead time. It does mean the box is not easily resealed, so it is not for returns.

Allow 10 to 14 business days after proof for the boxes, plus a day for the proof, plus transit. For a monthly send, order 5 to 6 weeks before the ship date. Reorders on the same dieline are faster to proof because only the art changes.

The subscription box is the shipper. It is an E-flute corrugated mailer printed inside and out, it ships flat to you and goes through a carrier on its own, sized to the rate band you ship in. The subscription rigid box is a wrapped 1200 gsm board box with a magnetic lid that the subscriber keeps; it arrives assembled and travels inside a plain mailer. Both start at 200 units in 10 to 14 business days after proof. Most boxes are opened once, so the mailer is the sensible default. The rigid box earns its cost on a welcome kit or a premium tier.
