Mailing Tubes

Mailing tubes from Cutting Edge are the perfect way to safely ship prints, artwork, posters, and maps. Mailing tubes offer significantly more protection than other shipping options against the denting, bumping, and dropping that can occur during transit. Mailing tubes are often more durable than cardboard boxes, and their cylindrical shape makes them even stronger. High-quality paperboard is used in producing our mailing tubes, ensuring they can provide the best protection for your products. Cutting Edge mailing tubes offer complete protection with a thickness of almost 1/8” and come in white end caps for secure packaging. Our mailing tubes are available in packs of 10 or 20 per order and come in a variety of sizes, including 2″ x 12″, 2″ x 20″, 2″ x 24″, and 2″ x 36″. They are priced below wholesale, plus shipping and handling.

Tubes used for mailing come in various diameters, lengths, and thicknesses to accommodate the item being shipped. It is crucial to remember this when selecting a tube, as some tubes have thicker walls than others. Additionally, many mailing tubes feature multiple layers for further reinforcement. Cardboard tubes that ship items like medical specimens or other sensitive materials often have aluminum interiors for both content protection and to comply with US Postal regulations. Depending on the item being mailed, mailing tubes may be closed at both ends with glued or removable metal; however, these specialty tubes will likely need to be custom ordered. Some examples of items typically shipped in mailing tubes are posters, blueprints, signboards, banners, paintings, and other forms of artwork. Smaller and more fragile items, such as pencils, may also be shipped using Mailing tubes.
