Whether you're moving, shipping fragile goods, or setting up warehouse systems, we offer durable, cost-effective options for every use case.

Corrugated cardboard boxes are far superior to standard cardboard in both strength and durability. Their design includes a fluted layer sandwiched between two flat sheets of linerboard, which acts like cushioning and adds rigidity. This makes them ideal for protecting products during transit, stacking in warehouses, and resisting impact, moisture and compression. Compared to basic cardboard boxes, corrugated styles offer significantly better performance for both lightweight and heavy-duty applications. If you’re looking to reduce product damage and maintain professional packaging standards, corrugated boxes are the go-to solution.

BDCM boxes (Bulk Distribution Carton Metric) are a specialist type of cardboard storage box designed for maximum efficiency in the supply chain. These boxes are sized to optimise space in warehouses, containers, and on pallets, reducing wasted volume and improving handling. They are particularly popular in retail distribution and fulfilment centres due to their standardised sizing, which streamlines stock management and speeds up the packaging process. Strong, stackable and easy to assemble, BDCM cardboard boxes help businesses cut storage costs and improve packaging accuracy.

All of our cardboard packing boxes and corrugated cardboard boxes are made from recyclable materials, and many are suitable for reuse. Businesses looking to improve sustainability will benefit from the recyclable nature of corrugated packaging, which is widely accepted by recycling services across the UK. In addition, many of our boxes are manufactured using recycled fibres and can be reused multiple times depending on handling. By choosing corrugated boxes, you're investing in eco-friendly packaging that reduces landfill waste and supports responsible business practices.

We supply and deliver corrugated cardboard boxes to businesses and individuals across the UK. Orders placed before 4pm are dispatched the same working day, helping you get your packaging when you need it. We also offer free delivery on orders over £100. Whether you’re looking for a small number of cardboard storage boxes or a bulk pallet of heavy-duty corrugated boxes, Plus Packaging can fulfil your order quickly and reliably, no matter where you’re based in the UK.

Selecting the right cardboard box depends on the type of items you're packing, how they'll be handled, and where they’re going. For lightweight or non-fragile items, single-wall boxes offer a good balance of protection and affordability. For heavier, fragile or high-value goods, double-wall corrugated boxes provide added strength and cushioning. Euroboxes and BDCM boxes are ideal for pallet stacking and distribution due to their consistent sizing and easy integration into warehousing systems.
