New In: Ecommerce Boxes
1 December 2025
Shipping hampers can be tricky, especially around busier times of year including the festive season. Whether you’re sending a delicate wicker basket or a simple collection of products, ensuring your products arrive intact while keeping costs low is a top priority. That’s why we’re excited to introduce our new range of ecommerce cardboard boxes.
With three versatile sizes, these boxes make shipping safer, more cost-effective, and professional-looking, whether used as a standalone package or as a protective outer for your wicker hamper baskets.
Why choosing the right hamper matters
The right packaging does more than just contain products, it protects them. Hamper items are often fragile or irregularly shaped, so using a box designed for hampers reduces the risk of damage during transit. Beyond safety, presentation matters. Customers judge their experience from the moment they see the package.
Using a sleek sturdy cardboard box enhances unboxing, giving your brand a professional edge. Finally, the right size box can save on shipping costs. Oversized packaging increases both shipping fees and wasted space, while under-sized boxes can cause damage. Our mailer boxes hit the sweet spot for both security and cost-effectiveness.
We’ve created three sizes of these cardboard boxes to perfectly fit our top three bestselling wicker hamper baskets. The smallest is designed for our 10 inch wicker hamper, the medium is for our 12 inch basket and the large will fit our 14 inch basket.
How you can use these boxes
The great thing about these boxes is that they offer versatility. For brands looking to create low-cost hampers, the boxes can be used as the primary packaging. They are strong enough to hold items securely, while offering a clean, professional appearance. For businesses shipping wicker baskets, these boxes serve as a protective outer mailer, preventing damage during delivery without the added cost of oversized packaging.
Additionally, the boxes can be printed (if you’re after higher quantities) with your own branding or logo helping them stand out. Find out more here.
Tips for packing hampers in our boxes
Packing hampers efficiently ensures your products reach customers safely. Use tissue paper, shredded paper, or wood wool to cushion more fragile items. For breakable items, consider dividers or additional padding. Close and seal the box to avoid any damage in transit.
If you only want a small number of boxes so can’t brand them, think about how else you’re hamper could stand out. Small branding touches like stickers or sleeves are both easy ways to add your branding in an easy, cost-effective way.
