We throw all of our bubble mailers into brand new tall gaylords for middle mile distribution which works well. UsedCardboardBoxes contacted us about using used gaylords, which we were skeptical at first, but they work just as well and are half the cost.

We used to buy brand new gaylords to manage our scrap metal. Little did we know that you could purchase used gaylords in the marketplace. We've saved considerable money, with no change to our processes. We're never going back.

We've been sourcing gaylord totes from UsedCardboardBoxes for our bulk ingredient storage needs. They have consistently met our operational standards, and the prompt delivery ensures our production line never halts.
