Shipping supplies?

Are we there yet?
Where do you purchase shipping supplies (boxes, heat packs, deli cups, cold packs)?

I have a place... but I'm not sure I'm getting the best deal.
 
I get my bags and some boxes (they come with the styro) from superior enterprises. I also purchase plain boxes (8x8x8 and 12x10x6) from Uline and then get 3/4" styro sheets from Menards (Lowe's/Home Depot) and cut them to fit the box. Superior also supplies me with my deli cups and heat packs.

Thank you!!

They are MUCH less expensive than my other option.
 
I buy from Superior as well. They have great customer service if you have a question & ship promptly. I've ordered from them several times & been happy every time.
 
I use Superior and Uline as well. Lucky me, though, as I can get all my styrofoam and cold packs free at the vet hospital. I love it when the vaccines or any other cold item comes in!
 
I also get mine from Superior Enterprises. Heat packs are priced fairly, too. I haven't needed to order cold packs from them, but I would. I just wish they sold the 12 ounce size. Shipping is fast and pretty darn close to free. They charge $8.50 per ORDER now. My last order was something like 6 differt LARGE boxes....for $8.50/each. Shipping is quick FROM them. Etc.... I'd be hard pressed to say anything bad about them except I seem to order the wrong cups too often (MY FAULT)......lol. He should be more telepathic!

I used to use that (and it is where I get more cold packs than I know what to do with!), but they were usually larger than I needed or the liners were WAY too thick. In most cases, I SAVE money buying a box than using a free one. The extra size on the free boxes cost me $10 more on shipping, and I usually eat the increased shipping charge. :( Shipping has become WAY too expensive. I'm paying FedEx more than I used to pay Delta - only 7 years ago! - for DASH shipments with insurance!
