Compare Custom Mailer Box Formats
A custom mailer box is a foldable packaging format used to pack, present, or ship products without a separate lid. The right structure depends on product size and weight, packing method, delivery route, protection needs, and the unboxing experience you want to create.
XLY reviews each project by structure, material, printing, finish, insert, quantity, and destination before confirming a production specification.

MOQ For Custom Mailer Boxes
Our standard MOQ is 500 pieces per design, size and style. Smaller orders of 200–499 pieces may be considered for selected structures, but the unit price will be significantly higher due to fixed setup and production costs. Certain structures, materials and production methods may require a higher MOQ. Different designs, sizes, or styles are reviewed separately rather than combined to reach 500 pieces.
For general purchasing questions, read the custom packaging FAQ or the MOQ, sampling and production guide. Factory workflow and inspection information is available on the Factory & Quality Control page.
