Prevent costly returns caused by shipping damaged, inexpensive boxes that may not withstand the rigorousness of daily shipping and handling.

We recommend a ECT-48 Double Wall Corrugated which provides more strength and protection than 32 ECT boxes, a budget-friendly alternative for lightweight shipments.
SSBM ECT-48 boxes are made with heavier paper and have a 40 LB. greater weight capacity and bursting strength than 32 ECT boxes.

Measuring a box

Listed dimensions are always inside dimensions.

The next dimension is width. The width side also has a flap but is always the side shorter than the length.
Height is the only dimension without a flap. Height measurements do not include flaps.
