We make book style boxes to hold and show items like electronics, toys, and personal care products. The main feature of this type of box is a top flap that opens just like a book. We build these boxes from strong cardboard or thick paperboard so they fit well and last a long time. If you need it, we can also add handles to make them easy to carry.

The Shipping Problems Booksellers Face (And How We Try to Solve it with Book Boxes)

Selling books online comes with a few predictable headaches. The main issues include:

  • Transit damage (battered corners and bent spines)
  • High shipping costs
  • And slow delivery times

Enter book style boxes by The Premier Packaging. With these boxes  we try to solve shipping problems for bookstores, publishers, subscription book clubs, and e-commerce sellers. Each book box we make lets you ship your books in a frustration free way. To avoid transit damage, we offer many closures as an add-one:

  • Pre-applied adhesive strips
  • Easy tear strips for opening
  • Peel-and-seal closures

They are custom-made specifically for shipping books in combination with further box styles like book wrap mailers or book box mailers, to safely keep packing costs and shipping weight under control.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What details do you need from me to give an accurate quote?

A: To get you a fast and accurate price, just tell us the exact dimensions of your item, the box style you like (e.g., magnetic book box or collapsible), and the number of boxes you need. If you already have a design or specific finish in mind, let us know so we can factor that in.

Q: Can I get a sample box to test before placing a full order?

A: Yes. We know you need to test the fit and feel, especially for heavy books or premium electronics. You can ask for a physical sample or a 3D digital mock-up to make sure the box works perfectly for your product before you commit to a full production run.

Q: Do these book style boxes ship flat or fully assembled?

A: It depends on the exact style you choose. Rigid styles, like magnetic or clamshell boxes, are shipped fully assembled so they are ready to pack right out of the box. If you want to save on shipping and warehouse space, we highly recommend our collapsible boxes, which ship flat but build into a strong, rigid shape in seconds.

Q: How long does it take to make and deliver my custom order?

A: Once you approve the final design and size, we move quickly to print, cut, and ship your boxes. Turnaround times depend on the size of your order and the printing features you choose. The standard time period is about 10-14 business days. We will give you a clear, honest delivery timeline right up front with your quote.
