A personalized mailer

When it comes to making a strong impression with your packaging, presentation is everything – whether you’re an ecommerce business, event promoter or brick and mortar. Display mailer boxes are a great way to excite customers the moment your package is delivered. Personalize the outside and inside of your custom shipping boxes to show off your personality and your style. It’s a detail your customers may notice – and show off to others.

A variety of options

Available in 12 sizes, our shipping boxes are made of corrugated E-flute cardboard, sturdy enough to ship small to mid-sized items without the need for additional packaging. And the front-tuck opening creates an exciting moment with every unboxing.

Easy to design

Ready to create your one-of-kind packaging? First, choose the display mailer size that suits you. Then upload your own design, motto or logo to our 3D design studio (be sure to remove any die-lines to prevent them from getting printed). Make your design stand out by adding custom details like backgrounds or patterns. We’ll take it from there, and have your custom shipping boxes delivered and ready to use.

VistaPrint offers Full-Print Mailer Boxes design templates in assorted styles.

Mailer box

Feb 10, 2026 | Louise B. |

Verified Buyer

I like the mailer’s the print is great however, once I filled the mailer with its contents, the front lip doesn’t sit flush any longer. That’s a bit disappointing.

Box Print Quality

Verified Buyer

I was expecting better print quality on the boxes. Colors bleed. Fine text looks blury. Images appear pixelated.

We printed a custom message inside a branded box, No need to include a note. Was a perfect way to send a corporate gift.

Sturdy and high quality

Dec 3, 2025 | Pavle C. |

Verified Buyer

Placed on order for a single box with a custom print on all sides. The print quality was excellent - vivid colours and no smudges or mistakes. The box itself is sturdy and of high quality. Very tight tolerances all around and no noticeable gaps between any of the panels.

E-flute is very thin (1/16") corrugated cardboard. It’s very easy to fold and is excellent for printing. Sturdy and crush resistant, it’s a good option for shipments – we do not recommend these mailers for very large or heavy items.
