There is a wide range of shapes, colors, sizes, and materials. In this article, I am going to describe several types of shipping boxes and their advantages.



<ol type="1"><li>The Corrugated Boxes are the boxes that are most commonly used. One of the advantages of these boxes is that you can pack heavy stuff in there. These boxes are made from corrugated paper. Corrugated boxes are extremely popular because they can prevent damage to your package.

<ol type="1" start="2"><li>Another type of box is Folding Carton Boxes.</li></ol>



The Folding carton boxes place second place for popularity after the corrugated boxes. Folding carton boxes, also known as custom product boxes, are paperboard boxes usually used for packaging individual products. The folding carton boxes are easy to use and seal. These types of boxes are usually used when shipping shoes, canned goods, perfume, candles, beauty products, and clothes. There are also different colors, designs, and sizes of folding carton boxes.

<ol start="3"><li>Full Overlap Boxes have all flaps of the same length. When the box is closed, the outer flaps come within one inch of complete overlap. It makes boxes resilient. These boxes are heavy-duty and they are good for heavy goods.</li></ol>
