Heavy duty Gaylord boxes are meant to ship or store items of all types.

The material they are made from is supposed to consist of at least three layers of sheets, with a corrugated center. If your purchase of heavy duty Gaylord boxes does not have the required number of layers, it means they are not good quality and won’t last long.

Multiple uses

Good packaging not only protects your items during transit but also becomes cost-effective in the long term. Unless put under exceptional duress, these boxes can be reused at least two to three times before they have to be replaced.
