A personalized mailer

When it comes to making a strong impression with your packaging, presentation is everything – whether you’re an ecommerce business, event promoter or brick and mortar. Display mailer boxes are a great way to excite customers the moment your package is delivered. Personalize the outside and inside of your custom shipping boxes to show off your personality and your style. It’s a detail your customers may notice – and show off to others.

A variety of options

Available in 12 sizes, our shipping boxes are made of corrugated E-flute cardboard, sturdy enough to ship small to mid-sized items without the need for additional packaging. And the front-tuck opening creates an exciting moment with every unboxing.

Easy to design

Ready to create your one-of-kind packaging? First, choose the display mailer size that suits you. Then upload your own design, motto or logo to our 3D design studio (be sure to remove any die-lines to prevent them from getting printed). Make your design stand out by adding custom details like backgrounds or patterns. We’ll take it from there, and have your custom shipping boxes delivered and ready to use.

I absolutely loved my mailer boxes. I had the opportunity to work with a representative when I got stuck and she was AWESOME! My mailer boxes were gorgeous and perfect for what I needed.

I made an order for the first time and i thought i was ordering a box that was at least 13 inches long but the one I ordered was 13 inches long when it’s not assembled. So I made a mistake in ordering, but customer service made it right. Can’t wait for my custom boxes to come in

Surprised and Overjoyed!

I am overjoyed, and my graphic design thesis looks wonderful! I actually was afraid to only order the box from vista print — the box was significantly cheaper than its competitors. I scared myself into ordering a second box from another company just to be safe. Not only did vista print’s box arrive very early, but the print and quality was beautiful. The colors were saturated and the print looked and felt professionally done. No damage, assembled perfectly. It outshined the expensive box I purchased by a long shot. I am very very pleased & would highly recommend vista print for mailer box printing! I’ve also seen vista print business cards from my classmates, and they look great as well. Thank you!

After choosing the options that work best for you, upload your logo or image to our online design studio. There you’ll use the editor to customize your packaging look or use the tools to reimagine an existing image. Remember to remove the die-lines from your uploaded image, otherwise they will be printed along with your design. Pro tip: For a more vibrant print, we recommend designs with darker tones or colors. Then, select the custom options that work best for your packaging look.

We recommend clear packaging or poly tape to best show off and preserve your design. When packing, we recommend you overlap the tape and make sure the tape stretches several inches down the either side of the box.

E-flute is very thin (1/16") corrugated cardboard. It’s very easy to fold and is excellent for printing. Sturdy and crush resistant, it’s a good option for shipments – we do not recommend these mailers for very large or heavy items.
