WHY BUILD A BOX

Built differently. And it shows.

  • No minimum order

    Order one box or up to 1,000 — same attention, same per-unit craftsmanship. No setup fees for small runs. No penalty for testing first.

  • Premium print, any surface

    Full CMYK on kraft, white ink, spot UV, foil, emboss. The finishes agency designers spec — now on a mailer you actually pay for.

  • Real people, real replies

    Talk to a packaging specialist by phone or email — no bots, no ticket queue. Call 888-406-1610.

  • Made in California since 1996

    Every box printed, cut, glued, and packed in Fullerton, CA. Thirty years, 1,000+ brands, 70% repeat customers. Real shop, real people.

  • We had never made a display case for our products before and working with Build-a-box made it easy! We went through a few variations until we reached the perfect display. They even helped us figure out how to ship the packaged units. Great quality with reasonable prices. Highly recommend.

QUICK ANSWERS

Before you ask.

  • Is there a minimum order quantity?

    No. Our minimum is literally one box, and Build A Box handles runs up to 1,000 units — the price per unit drops as quantity goes up. Need more than 1,000? Our sister company Rox Packaging (roxpkg.com) handles high-volume wholesale runs.

  • What's your typical turnaround?

    Standard custom orders ship in 7–10 business days from artwork approval. On a deadline? Rush production in 1–3 business days is available — call us at 888-406-1610.

  • Can I get an instant quote?

    Yes. Pick your size, material and quantity in our free 3D design tool and your unit price updates in real time as you design.

  • Do I get a proof before printing?

    Yes. After checkout our prepress team reviews your design and emails you a digital proof. Nothing prints until you approve it.

  • Do you offer samples?

    We don't offer free samples. Instead, every custom-printed order gets a digital proof, and production doesn't start until you sign off on it.

  • Can you print full-color on my boxes?

    Yes — full CMYK digital print on most box types. White ink on kraft is available (a favorite for DTC mailers), plus specialty finishes like foil stamping, spot UV and emboss.
