    Ive been looking at different ways of packing tshirts to post them to customers. Was wondering if anyone had any ideas for something different but inexpensive?

    I have seen some, bag type things, you put your goods in and then inflate
    them.. But can’t think where i saw them

    Maybe you could put them in clear plastic tubes like the ones you get tennis balls in

    You could print a lable and slip it inside and have the shirt design showing
    through, could look cool

    I like that, something that protects the shirt but looks funky also.
    Also thanks for the reply to the other post, HotMark. I was about to buy a roll of that for testing, the stuff I have now restricts the designs because it just wont handle small details.

    excellent! 😀 😀

    I looked into this last year also ….. but signs are our main business ….. so decided peeps just get their tops in a recycled box … original hey 😆 I did find some good ideas for packaging on florist suppliers sites …… you know trade suppliers to them for their packagings etc …… they have some good affordable ideas usually?? I hope Im making sense?? Probably not so if necessary just ignore this post 😮 Im not talking just flowery paper here either ….. find the right supplier & they usually have a massive range of different solutions .. quite quirky ones at that ……… like Xmas themes etc aswell …… Only thing is I cant find the details of the company I was looking at .. I will keep looking though & post if I find them!!

    Carrie, your suggestions made me think of 9′ Pizza boxes.

    I bet loads of Box makers have blanks of these just waiting for an address lable,
    branding lable and postage stamp. If they only have printed ones they could be
    assembled inside out though it could end up looking like a dogs dinner 😉

    Orange Dog – Piazza Box (Nudge/wink) see what I did there, see what I did huh!

    Ok I’ll shut up.

    Cheers Pete
