Frequently Asked Questions

What’s The Difference Between Rigid Gift Boxes And Flat Pack Gift Boxes?

Rigid boxes arrive already set up, hold their shape, and feel premium straight away. Flat pack boxes fold down for storage and are assembled when you need them, which is ideal if you’re ordering larger quantities in limited space.

What Gift Box Styles Do You Stock?

The page lists a wide variety, including lid and base, shoulder, hinged, drawer, and matchbox styles, plus flat pack options like magnetic snap shut, pillow, and gable boxes.

What Is A “Lid And Base” Box?

A lid and base box has two separate pieces, the base plus a lid that fits over it for a snug closure. It’s a classic presentation style for gifting, retail, and keepsakes.

What Is A Magnetic “Snap Shut” Gift Box?

Magnetic boxes are flat pack boxes with magnets embedded in the flap and main body, creating a secure snap-shut closure once assembled.

Do Gift Boxes Come With Inserts?

Many products in this category are designed to work with inserts, and the page notes that many boxes include foam or card inserts. If you’re packing a specific item (like a candle or bottle), check the product details to confirm insert type and fit.

How Do I Choose The Right Size Gift Box?

Start with your product size, then choose the smallest box that comfortably fits, allowing room for tissue, shredded paper, or an insert. Dimensions are commonly listed as Length × Width × Height, and it’s worth checking whether measurements are internal or external when you’re aiming for a snug fit.

Which Gift Boxes Are Best If I Have Limited Storage Space?

Flat pack boxes are the space-savers. Tiny Box Company’s own box guide describes flat pack as a strong option when you want to order more units but need easier storage.

Are These Gift Boxes Suitable For Business Use, Not Just Personal Gifting?

Yes. Gift boxes are great for business packaging, including corporate gifting and retail packaging, alongside individual gifting.

What Materials Are Your Gift Boxes Made From?

You’ll find boxes made from materials including boxboard/paperboard and corrugated cardboard, as well as wooden boxes for a premium option. For recycling/disposal guidance, always check the specific product description, especially if the box includes coatings or mixed components.

Can I Brand Gift Boxes With My Logo (E.g. Foil)?

Tiny Box Company offers branded gift box options, including foil-branded gift boxes. For the smoothest results, you’ll typically want print-ready artwork and a clear idea of where the logo will sit on the box (lid, side panel, or sleeve).
