Single-Walled Boxes

Single-walled boxes should not be used for anything weighing over 20 pounds
This type of box is acceptable for additive parts (SLS, FDM, and Poly Jet)

Double-Walled Boxes

Double-walled boxes are the preferred box for CNC and sheet metal orders
Boxes that are over 24” should be double-walled
If at all possible do not pack parts weighing over 50 pounds into a single double-walled box. If you need to send parts in more than one box, you can print more shipping labels in the Partner Portal

Note: DO NOT RE-USE BOXES, USE BRANDED BOXES, OR INCLUDE ANY BRANDED ITEMS IN BOXES WITH XOMETRY PARTS. Boxes with logos of shipping companies e.g. FedEx or UPs ARE permitted as long as they are NEW boxes for the Xometry job. (Unacceptable Examples: reused Amazon boxes, boxes with logos or other company names that don't belong to the shipping vendor, etc.)
