FAQs

At Gilmores, we offer a full range of mailing and shipping supplies to suit everything from everyday office posting to high-volume warehouse fulfilment. Our product range includes:

  • Padded and bubble mailers / mailing bags
  • Doculopes (document enclosed envelopes)
  • Cardboard mailing boxes
  • Postal tubes
  • Protective packaging materials such as bubble wrap, air-pillows, void fill, and packing paper

If you’re unsure which packaging option is right for your items, our team can recommend the most suitable products for your application and dispatch process.

Choosing the right packaging depends on weight, fragility, and size:

  • Flat or lightweight documents: standard envelopes or mailing satchels
  • Fragile or delicate items: padded bags or bubble mailers; can use protective wrap as added protection
  • Bulky or heavy products: mailing boxes, air-pillows, double-wall cartons, or heavy-duty satchels
  • Mixed or irregular-shaped goods: custom packaging ensures efficient protection and reduces postage costs

If you need help selecting the right mailing satchel, we can guide you to the best packaging solution.

Contact our Packaging experts to discuss your options.

To prevent damage during shipping, use protective packaging such as bubble cushion mail packs, Protecta Bags, bubble wrap, or void fillers like Bio Fill.

For best results, follow these steps:

  1. Assess your product: Consider its fragility, weight, and surface sensitivity.
  2. Choose the right box: Use sturdy cartons; for heavier goods, choose double-wall boxes.
  3. Wrap the item: Use protective wraps such as bubble wrap to cushion your product and prevent bumps and shifting. As a guide for bubble wrapping: Standard items: 2–4 layers; Glass, ceramics or fragile goods: 4–5 layers, especially around corners and protruding parts.
  4. Cushion the box: Air-pillows allow at least 5cm of cushioning around all sides and corners.
  5. Fill voids: Use air-pillows, void fill or packing paper to prevent movement in transit. Note: our Eco-friendly range.
  6. Label clearly: Add labels such as Fragile, Handle With Care, or This Way Up to assist handlers and reduce risk and breakages.
  7. Seal securely: Use packing tape with strong adhesive to ensure that your box is securely closed.

Let us know your requirements and we’ll provide tailored options and cost-effective pricing.

Absolutely. Bulk ordering is available on most mailing and despatch supplies.

Higher volumes often mean better value, and we’re happy to prepare a competitive custom quote.

Tell us the products, quantities, and any special requirements, and we’ll provide pricing quickly and accurately.

There are several simple ways to bring down your overall despatch costs:

  • Use the right-sized packaging: Oversized satchels, boxes or void-fill add unnecessary cubic weight. Choosing packaging that fits your product reduces both freight charges and material usage.
  • Switch to lighter-weight materials: Products like lightweight mailing bags, padded mailers, and die-cut cartons keep items protected without adding bulk – helping you save on weight-based shipping rates.
  • Buy in bulk: Purchasing packaging materials in larger quantities reduces the per-unit cost and minimises reordering and freight on incoming supplies.
  • Standardise your packing process: Using consistent carton sizes and pack methods improves packing speed, reduces waste, and ensures your shipments meet carrier guidelines.
  • Protect items efficiently: Replacing heavy void fill with kraft paper, honeycomb wrap, or air pillows provides excellent protection with lower cost and weight.
  • Review your courier options: Sometimes adjusting box sizes, switching to flat-rate options, or consolidating shipments can significantly decrease postage fees.

At Gilmores, we’re always happy to recommend packaging options tailored to your products and shipping volume.

Yes! We offer a wide range of environmentally conscious packaging options, including:

  • 100% recyclable cardboard cartons: Made from sustainably sourced materials and suitable for curb side recycling.
  • Recyclable paper padded mailers: A paper-only alternative to traditional bubble mailers.
  • Kraft paper, honeycomb wrap & paper void fill: Renewable, recyclable protective packaging that replaces plastic bubble wrap.
  • Eco-friendly tapes: Including water-activated paper tape and recyclable kraft tapes.

If you let us know your product type and shipping method, we can recommend the most eco-friendly packaging that still provides the protection your goods need.
