Learn More About Flat Pack Postal Boxes

Flat pack postal boxes are cut to carrier-compliant dimensions so businesses can hit flat-rate and dimensional-weight limits every time, while shipping to your dock unfolded to save storage space until an order goes out. Crat Packaging builds these corrugated mailers to match USPS and common carrier size brackets, printed with your brand.

Why Businesses Choose This Format

Postal carriers charge by size bracket as much as weight, and a box a fraction of an inch too large can push a shipment into a higher-cost tier. These are engineered to common flat-rate and dimensional-weight brackets, and because they ship unfolded, a shipping desk holds months of correctly sized stock without a full room dedicated to storage. Small shippers, subscription companies, e-commerce sellers, and mailrooms watching per-package cost all rely on the format.

Eco-Friendly Postal Packaging

A 2025 McKinsey survey found that over 60% of U.S. consumers pick green packaging when they have the choice. Crat Packaging builds these mailers from recyclable, FSC-certified corrugated board with soy-based inks at no added cost.

Sizing and Print Options

We cut to standard postal brackets or custom dimensions, with full-color branding, barcode zones, and address panels available. Small shippers can start with a single-color stamp and scale to premium branded printing.
