Frequently Asked Questions
Are bubble mailers recyclable?
Poly bubble mailers are recyclable at plastic film drop-off locations (not curbside). Our padded paper mailers with honeycomb cushioning are fully curbside recyclable.
How much protection do bubble mailers provide?
Bubble mailers protect against drops, vibration, and compression. They are suitable for items that are not extremely fragile: books, clothing, cosmetics, jewelry, and lightweight electronics. For fragile items like glass, use a corrugated box with cushioning instead.
Can bubble mailers be printed in full color?
Yes. Full-color exterior printing with your brand, logo, and design. Matte or gloss finish available.
What is the minimum order?
500 bubble mailers. Flyers/inserts: 250 minimum. Free US shipping. 7 to 10 business days.
Custom Bubble Mailers with Logo for Ecommerce Shipping
Custom bubble mailers work best for lightweight products that need padding without a full corrugated box. Teal can quote branded bubble mailers, poly flyers, padded envelopes, labels, inserts, and mailer box alternatives based on product size and shipping risk.
- Best uses: apparel accessories, cosmetics, books, stationery, small electronics, samples, and subscription add-ons.
- Quote details: product size, weight, fragility, mailer size, print coverage, quantity, and whether the package needs return-mailer support.
- When to use boxes: choose a corrugated mailer box instead when the product can crush, leak, or needs a premium unboxing experience.
