The Boxery, a U.S.-based packaging supplier, reports growing demand for small-batch shipping supplies orders from home-based and side-hustle online sellers.
-- LYNDHURST, NY — The Boxery, an online packaging and shipping supplies retailer based in Lyndhurst, New York, reported this week a marked increase in small-batch orders placed by home-based and side-hustle sellers over the past several months. The company said the pattern reflects a broader shift among individual sellers on online marketplaces who are ordering shipping supplies in smaller, more frequent quantities rather than large bulk shipments. The trend has been most visible among sellers operating from home offices, garages, and shared workspaces rather than traditional warehouses or retail storefronts.
The shift coincides with continued growth in independent online selling nationally. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, e-commerce sales accounted for roughly 16 percent of total U.S. retail sales in recent quarters, a share that has expanded steadily as more individuals sell goods directly to consumers through online platforms. Industry observers have noted that many of these sellers operate part-time or as a secondary source of income, a factor that influences how and when they purchase packaging materials.
The Boxery said its order data shows more customers requesting smaller quantities of corrugated boxes, mailers, and related shipping supplies, often in mixed sizes rather than single large pallet orders. This differs from the purchasing patterns historically associated with commercial shippers, who typically order in bulk on a scheduled basis. The company attributed the change to sellers managing tighter storage space at home and adjusting orders based on fluctuating sales volume.
To accommodate this demand, The Boxery said it has maintained its inventory across multiple U.S. warehouse locations, allowing smaller orders to be fulfilled and shipped without the delays sometimes associated with large freight shipments. The company noted that its product catalog, which includes more than 1,000 corrugated box sizes along with mailers and protective packaging, allows sellers to select specific dimensions suited to individual products rather than purchasing standardized bulk assortments.
“Home-based sellers are ordering differently than the wholesale accounts we’ve served for years, and we’ve adjusted our fulfillment approach to reflect that,” said the Owner of The Boxery. “Smaller, more frequent orders are becoming a regular part of how independent sellers manage their shipping needs.”
