We have stickers that we place on our boxes that say, "THANK YOU FOR YOUR BUSINESS!", our business name, and then a recycle symbol and text that says, "We Re-Use Boxes". Re-using boxes just makes sense in this industry. Many other products in other industries come "Mass shipped", and then need to be shipped individually, thus needing individual boxes. We are MASS producers in a sense, so it makes sense to me that we would use the boxes shipped TO us, to ship out. I know that a custom box, with your logo printed on it is a very nice way of creating a good first impression on your customer, but with the un-used boxes in our shop from our incoming shipments, it seems wasteful not to use them, and, personally, I don't want to spend a portion of my day driving them to a recycling center.

We'll toss the real bad ones, slap some stickers on the good ones, and use them to ship. Maybe someday we'll do custom boxes for our smaller orders.
