Learn More About Shipping Boxes for Shirts

Crat Packaging manufactures Shipping Boxes for Shirts in a flat, garment-proportioned footprint built to match folded apparel dimensions, so t-shirts and folded clothing ship snugly with minimal void fill and less wasted cube on every pallet. Apparel brands save on both material and freight cost when the box is shaped for the product instead of forcing a t-shirt into a generic cube carton.

Shipping Boxes for Shirts Specifications

Box Style Low-profile flat-pack RSC, garment-proportioned
Material E-flute corrugated or heavy chipboard mailer
Assembly Flat-shipped, tuck or tape closure
Best For T-shirts, folded apparel, single or multi-garment orders
Print Options Flexo 1-4 color, full-color litho branding
Order Volume (MOQ) 150 units minimum
Shipping Flat-packed pallets, US-wide freight and parcel

Sized for Folded Apparel, Not a Generic Cube

A standard cube-shaped shipping box wastes space around a flat-folded shirt, which means more void fill, more dimensional-weight shipping cost, and lower pallet density. This format is built low and wide to match a folded garment stack, so a shirt (or several) fits snug without extra packing material. The flatter profile also stacks more efficiently in freight and on retail backroom shelves.

Common Use Cases

  • T-shirt and apparel brands: direct-to-consumer shirt shipments with minimal void fill.
  • Multi-garment orders: boxes sized for 2-6 folded shirts in one shipment.
  • Print-on-demand apparel: low-cost, fast-fulfillment shirt packaging.
  • Wholesale apparel distribution: bulk shirt shipments to retail accounts.

Sizing and Capacity Options

Standard footprints match single-shirt and multi-shirt fold dimensions, with depth options for anywhere from one garment to a small bulk order. E-flute corrugated offers structural protection for parcel shipping, while a heavier chipboard mailer style works for lighter-weight, lower-cost single-garment orders.

Eco-Friendly Packaging

A 2025 McKinsey & Company survey found over 60% of U.S. consumers pick green packaging when they have the choice. Crat Packaging offers recyclable and FSC-certified board options for Shipping Boxes for Shirts at no premium over standard stock.
