Know The Right Way To Measure The Dimensions Of The Boxes

July 18, 2024 Packaging Guide

Know The Right Way To Measure The Dimensions Of The Boxes

Are your products ready to be shipped to the market? But what are you going to use to ship them? Well, there are certain boxes which can be used for packaging and shipping various products. These boxes ensure the safety and security of the product making sure that they reach the customer safely. For that, you need to get custom boxes of the exact size of the products so that you can make box dimensions according to it. 

Every product has a different size and the box should be made keeping in view size even if you don’t know how to measure the dimensions of the box. By reading the following blog, you will learn the right ways to measure the medium box dimension

What Are Box Dimensions? Why Are They Necessary?

Box dimensions refer to its length, width, and depth altogether is the size of the box. The outer and inner dimensions are completely different from each other. Somewhere between your learning years, you might have heard about the formula length x Width x Height. It is used to measure the size of the different product boxes.

However, it should be kept in mind that it is really necessary to measure the average box size correctly. This way you can make sure that your product is being packaged in the right box size. For example, if you want to ship a fragile item like a candle, you need to make sure the box that you choose for its shipping and packaging fits it right so it won’t budge into the other items. This way you can reduce its chances of breaking.

Measure The Correct Dimensions Without An Error

It is no big deal to measure the standard box size if you want to ship only one product in it. However, it can be a daunting task to measure the dimensions if you want to ship multiple products within a single box. Three units are used to take the accurate measurements of the boxes:

  • Length (L)
  • Width (W)
  • Depth(D)

While measuring, it would be thoughtful to leave space for an extra 0.635cm so that the delicate products don’t get crushed with the box.

Internal Dimensions And Their Importance

When a box is fully assembled the inner dimensions display the space available for the product. There should be enough room for the product to fit perfectly but also leave some space for movement of the product.

Suppose you have rigid shoulder neck boxes and you want to ship cosmetic products in them, then you should have space for its movement otherwise the box will compress the cosmetics.

Right Way To Measure The Dimensions Of The Boxes

It is necessary to get accurate box dimensions for shipping because most small products are shipped within a large box which gives an unpleasant look. In the same way, if a product perfectly fits into the box looks flawless, and error-free and also gives an elegant unboxing experience to the customers. By following the mentioned process you can effortlessly get the right measuring of your boxes.

  • Get the measurement of the length of the box by identifying the longest side of the box. If you are taking a large box dimension then you need help from a tape for accurate measurements. Measure the side that seems longer than the others, that is how you will get the (L) length of the box.

 

  • For the measurement of width, rotate the measuring tape at 90 degrees, it is always shorter than the length.

 

  • Now measure the height, know that flaps are not included in height. So tuck the flaps inwards for accurate measurements of height. Shoulder & Neck Rigid Box Dimension Requirements are different from other boxes.

Box Dimensions

Measuring Different Box Styles

In the industry, you can never guarantee what type of shipping box sizes are required for the packaging of products. Business owners ask for extraordinary packaging of their products. Packaging experts focus on different dimensions according to the product size and need.

For instance, if you want to measure the dimensions of the shoe box dimension the prominent focus will be on the length as the depth and width would be shorter as compared to the length. Some other factors need to be considered while making custom boxes.

The Weight Capacity Of The Box

What is the purpose of making boxes if they cannot handle the weight of the products or the rigours of shipping? Study and durable materials like rigid material, corrugated material, and cardboard material should be used to make rigid boxes so that the products can be delivered to the customers in pristine condition.

Crux Of The Blog!

In conclusion,  getting the accurate small box dimension is necessary because it will keep your product in place while shipping which will give an excellent unboxing experience. No matter what product are you shipping in, whether it is bakery products, cosmetics or belt boxes. We at CustomBoxesMarket.ca will help you to create perfect boxes for your products so that they give your customers a memorable experience.
