Small Business Owners: 3 Reasons You Want A Packaging Service

November 18, 2014 by admin

If you’re a MA small business owner, you may be asking yourself, “Why do I need a packaging service? Can’t I just box up and mail out my products myself?” Well, this post is for you. You certainly can box up and mail out your products on your own, but there are 3 reasons why you might prefer to have Boston’s best packaging service do it:

1. You will save tons of time.

Properly packaging, addressing, and mailing products can be a time consuming prospect – particularly if you have a significant volume of merchandise or it’s difficult to package, such as fragile items or electronics. The time you spend packing is time you can’t spend creating more business, generating revenue and building your company. Delegating the task to a professional packaging service will free you up to concentrate on high-value tasks that will increase your overall profitability.

2. You will save money.

If you decide to do all the packaging of your products in house, you will need some or all of the following: a dedicated space large enough to accommodate the packaging process; packaging materials, including shipping boxes, packing supplies, tape, labels, and more; and one or more employees to do the work – all of whom are paid an hourly wage as well as benefits and other employee costs.  None of these items are free; some of them are quite expensive.

Worst of all, you are responsible for these costs no matter how many packages you need to send. If you have no packages to send some days, you still have to pay rent on the space you maintain for packaging purposes. Your employees still get paid. If, on the other hand, you choose a MA packaging service, you only pay for what you actually need. The savings can be substantial.

3. Your customers will be happier.

The best MA packaging service knows how to pack your merchandise to stand up to the rigors of transport. This means less breakage, fewer lost packages, and reduced customer complaints. What could be better than having happy customers?

"I used Boston Pack & Ship to send an antique drop-leaf table that had been my mother's and four Windsor chairs that my father had made, an antique blanket chest and two large framed (with glass) photographs. I had no special instructions, but all the items had huge sentimental value - they were all special to me and were now being sent to our oldest son who had just bought his first home. So it was important that they arrive safely. Both Bill and Joe were very friendly, up front with the fees and service provided and the process went just as they described. I might not have thought any more about it, but when the furniture arrived, our son made a point of calling and saying how nice the movers had been and said that I should feel comfortable recommending them to anybody in need of their services."
