UPS Strength Guidelines on Cardboard Box

Which packing box is right for packaging? This box guide will help provide the answer.

200 lb. Test or 32 ECT Boxes? What’s the difference?

Eliminate costly returns due to shipping damage. Choosing an incompatible cardboard box for a desired shipping or packaging need may not help it or its contents survive the perils of everyday handling.
International Plastics and UPS recommend 200 lb. test boxes. They provide more strength and protection than 32 ECT boxes which are a budget-friendly alternative for lightweight shipments.
International Plastics 200 lb. test boxes are made with heavier paper and have 60% greater bursting strength than 32 ECT boxes.
Providing substantial bursting strength means negligible crushed or damaged boxes and content during shipping.
International Plastics 100% satisfaction guarantee assures that we stand behind any of our products and that we refuse to sacrifice the quality of our boxes.

How to Measure a Packing Box

Listed dimensions are always inside dimensions.
Length is always the longest side of the box that has a flap.
Width is the shorter side of the box that also has a flap.
Depth measurements do not have a flap.
NOTE: Acceptable manufacturing variance is approx. +/- 1/8”

Helpful Hints

The first dimension is Length.
The second dimension is Width
Depth is the 3rd dimension and the only side without a flap..
To ship via UPS or FedEx, surround each item with 2” of packing material and place each item 2” away from the walls of the box.
To ship via USPS, surround each item with packing materials until items are no longer moving around in the box.
