Where do you go to buy packaging to deliver your photos, frames, and products to clients? |

I use Tyndell Photographic for my boxes and tissue paper. I use the Tyndell chocolate boxes and the Raw Sienna tissue paper. I only buy the 8x10 and 11x14 boxes.
I get clear bags from Clear Bags. I get the crystal clear bags. I use them to separate the different sizes.
This reminds me.. I have to run to a fabric store to buy some rolls of ribbon to tie around the boxes. I don't know what color I want. I know I don't like those foil coated rubber bands. I haven't been putting anything around the boxes since I ran out of the rubber bands.
Hope this helps. |

Yes clear bags is great. I order from them all the time to package my home decor items I sell. They have bags in just about every size imaginable. They usually come in packages of 50-100. But their prices are reasonable around $6-$50 per lot depending on size. |

Tyndell was great. I needed cardboard "memory mates" to put team pictures in, compared probably 10 sites and their prices were very competitive.
What really impressed me, though, was that I ordered it on like a Friday, and had the box (or would have if the weather had co-operated) on like Tuesday or Wednesday. When delivery became impossible due to the nasty stuff falling from the sky, and UPS was absolutely no help, they were VERY helpful in tracking it down for me -- I actually talked to a human being when I called. A human being whom I could understand actually answered the phone. It was cool. |

The site does look like it will have everything I need. Right now I'm trying to solidify my prices and the places I will use for ordering certain products. And I think that will help for my packaging. Thank you. |

BagsUnlimited has a lot of that stuff.
I had not personally ordered from them, but I found them when MattO asked about suppliers for sleeves over in this thread.
Might be of use to you. |

With Tyndell, the only negative thing was the pricing for the shipping for the boxes. I think it was $30 for 2 cases of boxes. They didn't give me the price when I ordered them. The next time I am going to call to get shipping prices ahead of time. I noticed after I ordered that the shipping prices aren't listed when you order boxes. I don't know why the shipping was so expensive...they are empty boxes. |
