Corrugated Shipper: wholesale price

A typical US business buyer pays a median of $2.00 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.26 at volume, on a typical 14-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point for a sourcing conversation rather than a binding quote.

What moves the price

For corrugated shipper, the drivers are dimensions, board grade, flute type, burst strength, print method — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.

Price is driven most by board grade, flute structure, print coverage, and dimensional efficiency; larger, denser shippers with custom print and stronger board move the price up fastest. Real supplier routes that fit this band include US wholesale converters and food/beverage packaging specialists for 500-9,999 units, then national converters or import/landed-equivalent sourcing for 10,000+ where per-unit pricing drops sharply. Published supplier pricing is sparse for exact food-beverage shippers, so the lower tiers are anchored to quoted wholesale ranges from custom packaging suppliers while the larger tiers are anchored to published bulk and import-equivalent pricing.

Also known as: case, master carton, shipper.
