Coloured cardboard boxes cost a surprising amount extra (almost double). BrownBoxAway doesn't have the same ring to it. MagicBoxAway is pretty good though.

- astine 16y agoYes, but they look so sleek. Seriously, people will judge the trustworthiness of your company by the appearance of your boxes and the quality of your branding. I don't know the costs of the cardboard boxes you're looking at, but I suspect that the price difference might be worth it. Add a simple logo and you'll be golden. ...I like the 'redboxaway' because the color is the brightest, and because red and box are the same number of letters it leads itself to more logo options. There is a possible name clash with a popular video rental business though.
- AlexMuir 16y agoTo give an idea of price for boxes (a random fact, but maybe useful). A double-walled cardboard box measuring 18" x 12" x 12", with a logo and text in one colour, costs around 90p when ordering 1,500 at a time. They are suprisingly expensive. And that's with me collecting from the factory.
- astine 16y ago90p ~~ $180... For a single box?! I can get them cheaper at Staples, though not in bulk. Who's your supplier?
- AlexMuir 16y ago£0.90 = $1.41. You sure they're cheaper in staples? Here's Staples prices in the UK [1] - £3.99 for a box of the wrong size, but roughly the same volume. And ours are printed for £0.90.
