Packing & Shipping Supplies For E-Commerce Retailers

December 10, 2018

Whether you run a business selling antiques on Ebay or you make and sell your own jewelry on Etsy, it’s essential that you have the proper shipping supplies. Any e-commerce retailer will tell you that in order for your company to run efficiently, you must be able to pack and ship out packages in a timely and professional fashion.

At Perkaroma, we understand how critical it is for e-commerce retailers to have the best packing and shipping supplies on-hand when they need it, which is why we’ve dedicated ourselves to providing shipping supplies to businesses across the New York and New Jersey areas. Whether you need shipping and mailing labels or shipping boxes, we’ve got the shipping supplies you need to keep your business running smoothly and your customers happy.

In this blog, we’re going to discuss some of the best packing and shipping supplies to consider for your e-commerce retail store.

Quality Shipping Boxes & Envelope Mailers

Ordering quality shipping boxes for the office may not seem like a big deal, but it can make or break your business’ reputation. If you’re going to be shipping products, whether it be clothes, electronics, or stuffed animals, it’s important to ship them in sturdy boxes you can trust. Shipping boxes come in a wide range of shapes and styles, but for the best fit, we recommend opting for boxes that are a little bigger than you need. If you’re shipping particularly heavy items such as paper weights or computer parts, you may want to look into flat rate boxes as an affordable alternative to regular boxes.

Chances are, you’ve ordered something online in the past and received a box that was way too large for the item. You may have thought, “What a waste!” or “Who needs all this packing filling?” As an e-commerce retailer, the last thing you want is your customers feeling the same way when they receive their items from your online store. This is why it’s so important to use the proper-sized shipping boxes for your product.

If the items you are shipping are light and durable, you may want to consider envelope mailers rather than boxes.

There are many benefits to envelop mailers, including:

Envelope mailers tend to be less expensive than normal shipping containers and boxes.
Mailers occupy a less amount of space in your care or in the office.
Using envelope mailers instead of boxes can save your employees time and your company money because they are less labor-intensive to pack and put together.

Different Types Of Envelope Mailers

With the large variety of envelope mailers on the market, you may be wondering how on earth to pick the best one for your needs. At Perkaroma, we carry a diverse selection of envelope mailers for businesses across New York and New Jersey. Some of our most popular envelope mailers include:

Catalog Envelopes – As its name suggests, catalog envelopes are used for mailing important documents, like insurance policies, wills, and resumes.

A Shipping Scale

One office item that many e-commerce businesses invest in is a shipping scale. This is an easy way to calculate your shipping costs if you print out your own shipping labels at the office. Some shipping scales have USB capabilities, allowing you to connect them to your shipping software or label printer.
