I'm in need of packaing materials, ideally recycled/sustainable products, such as jiffy bag of various sizes, cardboard sheet, boxes e.t.c
Does anyone know of good cheap companies through their work?
Sorry dull, but probably quicker to post here and get suggestion/ recommendation than trawl through google and end up with shonky supplies.
Thanks in advance 😀
When Mrs S senior was running a small mailorder business she got much of her packing stuff off eBay.
Depends on the volumes you're after, but eBay makes sense as that's where a lot of small mail order business trade.

The only one I've ever had call to use, they were good enough when I used them ~7 years ago
Tidy cheers! I'll check them out, TBH I'll order in bulk as it'll be cheaper and I'm going through stuff quickly due to the amount of units that are coming in at the moment.
Sweet cheers, thanks Trekster, I really try and use only recycled material where possible so the best place looks good.
loco, where are you?
I am a packaging buyer based in Yorkshire.
If you are using Royal Mail for post, remember they operate Pricing In Portion, I send lots of little packages out, and use boxes which fit into the PIP sizing for Large Letter, saves a lot paying Large Letter rate not packet, for small items, I use http://www.defendapack.co.uk/pricing_in_proportion_boxes.htm
Hope use these guys:

I reckon they would run through a few unprinted boxes on the back end of a hope run if this suited you.
I think most of us are familiar with the boxes hope use for stuff?
Great thanks everyone, CHB I'm in South Wales.
We use [url= http://www.rajapack.co.uk ]http://www.rajapack.co.uk[/url] at work. No idea if they're cheap/expensive, but service is good and delivery always fast (and well packaged, funnily enough :lol:)
Hi Loco
I'm the Graphic Designer at the aforementioned inspirepac.
This place is probably more high volume than I think you'd want to do. why not try speaking to the paper mills direct, they may let you have some waste board
cheers
