Long Boxes

Stop the Damage: The Unmatched Protection of Long Boxes

Many businesses come to us frustrated with generic packaging that doesn’t hold up. A design studio once told us they were losing money replacing damaged posters because their old suppliers only offered square boxes. We reworked their packaging with reinforced long cartons, and damage complaints dropped to zero. That’s the difference precise packaging makes.

Whether you need long storage boxes with lids for keeping products dust-free, sleek long gift boxes for presentation, or heavy-duty long packing boxes for courier runs, we adapt the structure and material to your exact use.

Stop Paying to Ship Empty Space

Not every product sits neatly in a regular carton. A poster tube, a fishing rod, or even a tall bottle needs something shaped with them in mind. That’s where our long cardboard boxes come in. We cut them to the length and width you need, so you’re not paying to ship empty space — and your items don’t shift or knock about on the journey.

Think about it: a rolled-up print sliding in a box that’s too wide is bound to scuff. A fragile bottle packed into an oversized carton will need unnecessary filler. With our custom long boxes, you get packaging that’s snug, secure, and cost-efficient.

The Right Material for Your Long Box’s Mission

Every industry has different demands, and your packaging material should reflect that. We offer:

• Corrugated board for shipping long or heavy products that need extra muscle.
• Sturdy cardboard for cost-effective retail-ready packaging.
• Eco-friendly kraft stock for natural or artisan brands.
• Premium rigid board for high-end long gift boxes, perfect for spirits, jewellery sets, or corporate gifting.

All our long packaging boxes are FSC®-certified and printed with eco-friendly inks. For food and beverage products, we also supply boxes that meet relevant safety standards.

Printing & Branding That Elevates Your Box

A long box isn’t just about protection — it’s a branding opportunity. At Buy Packaging Boxes, we bring your ideas to life with crisp digital printing for short runs or precise offset printing for wholesale volumes.

You can keep things minimal with a logo on kraft, or go bold with full-colour graphics that stretch across the box length. Many of our retail clients also add tactile finishes like embossing or foil stamping to make packaging feel premium in hand.

We’ve even worked with gift brands who wanted custom long boxes with ribbons and inserts, creating packaging that customers kept long after the product was gone. That’s branding that pays off.

Custom Long Boxes for Every Use Case

From industrial parts to delicate gifts, our long boxes cover a wide range of applications:

• Long cardboard boxes for shipping – tough enough to withstand courier handling.
• Long storage boxes with lids – ideal for keeping products neat and dust-free.
• Long gift boxes – luxury options with premium finishes for retail or corporate gifting.
• Extra long storage boxes – custom-sized for oversized products that won’t fit elsewhere.

Eliminate the guesswork. Our packaging experts will recommend the ideal structure for your product and budget, backed by a free 3D mock-up so you can approve the design with total confidence.

When Oversized Boxes Were Burning Profits: A Success Story

A candle maker in Manchester once struggled with packaging tall jar sets. Their products either arrived broken or cost too much to ship because they had to use oversized cartons. We created custom long boxes with partitions that held each jar upright. Not only did their breakage problem disappear, but their customers started praising the “premium feel” of the packaging in reviews. That’s when packaging stopped being just protection — it became part of their marketing.
