Editorial guide by Boxly · Confirm product-specific advice with your supplier.
Describe the contents.
Share dimensions, weight, photographs and intended use. Flag glass, delicate jewellery, food contact or courier transit so those needs can be addressed in the packaging specification.
Describe the order.
State the quantity, desired arrival date and destination PIN. Explain whether the deadline is a fixed event date and whether delivery is to one address or several.
Describe the brand.
Supply artwork, colour references and desired logo placement or finish. Say if the artwork is not ready; do not approve a production file you have not checked.
Ask for the whole quotation.
Request the unit rate, applicable MOQ and pack size, sample/tooling fees where relevant, taxes, freight, payment terms, artwork approval steps and production/delivery schedule. Keep the approved specification with the quote.
Turn this into a packaging brief.
Share the product, dimensions, quantity and delivery postcode. Ask for a clear specification and comparable written quote.
