What Are Double Wall Cardboard Boxes?

Double wall cardboard boxes are made by stacking two pieces of corrugated cardboard side by side with a liner placed in between. This additional layer of cardboard gives the box extra durability and strength to store heavy equipment and other items that would otherwise break through a single layer of cardboard. Double wall corrugated boxes are most effective when used with bubble rolls or packing paper to give your items extra protection in transit.

When Should You Use Double Wall Boxes?

Double wall boxes are ideal for packing heavy equipment and other valuable items. The extra layer of cardboard prevents heavy items like power tools from breaking through the bottom of the box and spilling onto the floor. You can also seal the double wall box on both sides using packing tape or another strong adhesive to add another layer of protection. When it’s time to move to a different location, you can rest assured that your equipment will be secured in one place.

Double wall shipping boxes should be used when you mail fragile or valuable items to different locations. The added cushioning from the two layers of corrugated cardboard will protect the items by absorbing the shock that occurs during transit. If you want to take it a step further, be sure to use packing peanuts or bubble wrap to ensure that your product remains in mint condition as it travels between different locations.

Can You Reuse Double Wall Corrugated Boxes?

Although double wall boxes are sturdier than standard cardboard boxes, they tend to wear down as you use them. It is possible to reuse a double wall cardboard box for shipping and moving, but you should closely inspect the box for wear and tear. Some of the things you want to look out for when determining whether or not a cardboard box is viable are holes, tears and damage from water.

These factors can weaken the structural integrity of a double wall cardboard box and elevate the risk of damaging your belongings. Ideally, you will want to reuse double wall boxes for items that are not too heavy or fragile. If you come to the conclusion that the box is no longer viable for storage or shipping, you can recycle or use it in other ways.
