Does the post office have book mailers?
The post office does not usually sell boxes specifically for books, however, they do have generic boxes that can fit books with additional void fill.
Our book mailers are a more custom-fit option which cuts down on the need for bubble wrap or additional fill. They also ship under USPS's lower media mail rates for sending books.
What is the best way to seal an easy fold book mailer?
Packaging Tape: Standard clear or brown packaging tape works well for securing easy-fold mailers, offering a strong hold.
What is the best way to mail a book?
Books can be mailed in a range of boxes and envelopes. Our multi-depth book mailers are the best solution for sending books domestically or internationally. They fit multiple sizes of books without the need for additional bubble wrap as they fully contain the book with no void space.

I realize that there are already several posts on this topic, but since rates and shipping methods have recently changed for the major carriers (i.e., USPS Ground Advantage) I wanted to get updated advice if possible. I'm planning to ship over 100 advanced copies (6 x 9 trim paperback and hardcover) and am looking for the best boxes or padded mailers as well as the most cost-effective method to ship these within the Unites States. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
