C-Series Boxes from Custom Boxes Now

C-Series Boxes & More

As subscription services and online clothing shopping boom in popularity, so do the C-series boxes they’re often packaged in. C-series boxes, also referred to as self-locking boxes or self-enclosing boxes, are a unique type of shipping solution that self-locks for a secure packing experience. These containers, made from durable corrugated cardboard, are extremely versatile, shipping anything from clothing to food.

Aside from traditional C-Series boxes, you can choose from:

  • Full overlap containers (FOL)

  • Half slotted containers (HSC)

  • Center special slotted containers

Why Use Custom Boxes Now For Your C-Series Packaging?

Many people find ways to reuse C-series boxes thanks to their durability, meaning they’ll keep your brand around for a long time. Even if recipients choose to dispose of the box after use, they can do so with a clean conscience — at Custom Boxes Now, we make all of our packages 100% recyclable.

Our C-series boxes require tooling through the use of a cutting die. We carry these cutting dies in several sizes for relatively standard-sized boxes. However, if your business requires a self-enclosing box with unique dimensions that we have not printed before, there may be a one-time charge of $600 to $1,000. Be sure to contact us to discuss our sizing and customization options before placing your order.

Frequently Asked Questions

I need my boxes tomorrow – can you get them to me in time?

In some instances, if you order before noon Central Standard Time and select overnight delivery. Orders received online after 2:00 CST are not available for next-day delivery. For any orders requiring short turn times such as this, please call us to discuss current lead times: 1-855-720-9309.

How do I know what box strength I should choose?

CustomBoxesNow.com has simplified the box ordering process. By offering three grades of corrugated board, you can choose the right strength for your box application. If you still have questions, please call 1-855-720-9309 or learn more about us online!

The strength of a box depends on its size and the strength of the corrugated used in its construction. The larger the box, the more strength it can hold:

  • “STANDARD” strength box: Single-wall, 32 ECT, we do not recommend exceeding 65 lbs and 75 total inches of measurement.
  • “STRONG” box: Single-wall, 44 ECT, we do not recommend exceeding 95 lbs and 95 total inches of measurement.
  • “EXTRA STRONG” box: Double-wall, 51 ECT, we do not recommend exceeding 105 total inches and 120 lbs

Total inches can be measured by taking the outside dimensions of the box and adding them together (length, height, and width.)

Is there a minimum quantity of boxes I must order?

No, we do not require a minimum order quantity. However, the larger quantity of boxes you order, the more you save per box.

Can I add a logo or other custom printing to my box?

You may choose to add printing to your custom box:

  • Standard Printing – this allows you to select from popular phrases such as “Fragile” or “This Side Up”.
  • Custom Printing – this option allows you to upload your logo or graphics and add them to your box. You will see a print plate charge added to the cost of your box. After selecting custom printing, you will be asked for the number of panels (on which you want printing), number of colors, and image size. You will also be asked to upload your image later in the checkout process.
  • Panels: Number of sides that would be printed. For 2 panel printing we normally print the two longer panels of a box, opposite of one another. For 4 panel printing, we print both the length and width panels of the box. If you are interested in getting the top or bottom panels printed, please contact us.
  • Colors: 1C printing is a single spot color, that can be screened, printed on a box. 2C printing is two spot colors, both of which can be screened, printed on a box. 4C printing can be either four specific spot colors or process printing.
  • Image Area: The total dimensional area of your print, centered on each selected panel. Please do not select an image area larger than the box you are purchasing. If you would prefer a different placement on the panels, please call us and we would be more than happy to help you.

Please call us if you need assistance with adding custom printing. Please allow 2-3 extra days for custom printing. For other custom box creation questions, check out our help center.
