Serving Portland, Oregon and the metro area
Referral service. Quotes come from partner suppliers.
From used corrugated boxes to pallet-sized gaylords, tell us what you need and we pass your request to partner suppliers serving the Portland metro.
Portland Boxes is a referral service. We take your quote request and pass it to partner suppliers, who set prices, terms, pickup, and delivery.
A simple A to D scale is a handy way to say what condition you need. Partner suppliers may use their own terms, so confirm condition with the supplier before you order.
Boxes that have been used once or show very little wear. Clean, with no visible structural damage.
Lightly used with minor cosmetic marks. Generally suitable for shipping and storage.
Moderate use with visible wear. Usually a fit for internal storage or less demanding shipping.
Heavily used boxes suited to storage, internal transfers, or recycling once they are done.
Partner suppliers set their own condition standards and order terms. Ask how they describe condition, and what happens if boxes do not match, before you confirm.
Reusing a box avoids making a new one, so the fiber, energy, and water that went into it keep working.
Plenty of storage, moving, and internal jobs do not need a new box. Used boxes can be a practical fit for them.
Corrugated cardboard is widely recycled, so a box that can no longer be reused can usually go on to recycling.
Portland Boxes does not hold stock. We take requests from Portland, Oregon and the metro area, including Beaverton, Hillsboro, Gresham, Tigard, Lake Oswego, Tualatin, and Clackamas, and pass them to partner suppliers. What is available at any time depends on those suppliers.
Requests can cover anything from compact 6 x 6 x 6 shippers to triple wall gaylord containers on a 48 x 40 footprint. Whether you are shipping handmade candles from a home studio or moving parts around a plant in Swan Island or Rivergate, tell us the size, quantity, and wall type and a partner supplier will follow up.
Requests can cover used single wall and double wall boxes, standard and heavy-duty gaylords, new boxes, packaging accessories, and custom sizing or printing. Pricing is by quote from partner suppliers, and pickup and delivery are available through them.
These are sizes people commonly ask for. All dimensions are in inches (L x W x H). Need something else? Include it in your request. Availability depends on partner suppliers.

A few questions up front help you get the right box. These apply whether you are buying one bundle or a full pallet.
Ask how the supplier describes condition, and whether used boxes may show old print, labels, or tape.
Ask for the rating on the box maker's certificate where there is one. ECT relates to stacking strength; burst relates to puncture resistance.
Ask the supplier for rated capacity for your load. Used boxes may not perform like new ones, so test before you commit to heavy loads.
Avoid boxes that have been wet, are moldy, or carried anything that could contaminate your goods. Ask how they were stored.
Partner suppliers set their own prices and terms, including what happens if boxes are not as described. Confirm these before you order.
Pickup and delivery are available through partner suppliers. Ask what is possible for your location and quantity.
Pricing is by quote from partner suppliers. We do not set prices. These are the things a supplier will usually ask about.
Larger boxes and heavier board use more material. Include dimensions and whether you need single, double, or triple wall.
