hi I'm Jessie June a founder of Lumi and,this is shipping things a show about,shipping things and today we're talking,about poly mailers if you've ever,ordered clothes online you probably,received a poly mailer and they're super,versatile and that's why they become a,de facto for ecommerce shipping of soft,goods poly Millers are really common for,soft goods but they're not just for,clothes you can ship towels bedding even,pillows in a poly mailer,you can even ship something rigid like a,look you'll just want to wrap it in,bubble wrap and this is a more,economical thing to do than actually,ordering padded mailers several brands,even use poly mirrors to protect,shoeboxes from damage in transit poly,mailers come in a broader range of sizes,from tiny ones some big ones and a,standard poly mailer is 2.5 million,thickness a mill is one thousandths of,an inch,now if you increase the thickness from,like 2.5 mill to five mill you're using,twice as much plastic so you can expect,your cost to also potentially double,increasing thickness actually increases,the strength of the poly mailer but you,only really need it if you're shipping,sharp or rigid objects that you think,might push through the poly mailer more,mill equals more edge strength craft,boxes can seem like the better option,for sustainability but a lot of poly,mailers actually have recycled content,you can tell by looking inside the,mailer if it's dark gray inside it has a,high amount of recycled content if it's,white it's probably virgin plastic,material poly Millers can also be,recycled and put back into the stream,again at loonie custom printed poly,mailers start with a minimum run of,5,000 pieces the manufacturing processes,involved are really complex and that's,the minimum you need to get these,machines up and running we're talking,about machines that are a whole city,block here people railroad cars pull up,with plastic pellets in them get sucked,through a tube into a machine that melts,them down they get blown my point is in,order to order them you need to make the,numbers work,so let's consult mister calculator,at lumia if you order five thousand ten,by thirteen printed poly mailers you're,looking at a unit cost of 40 cents that,means that for five thousand pieces your,total cost will be two thousand dollars,if you order ten thousand of the same,ten by thirteen printed poly mailer,you're looking at a unit cost of twenty,one that means that just four hundred,dollars more you get twice as many poly,mailers again poly mailers really pay,off in high quantities not only are,printed poly Millers generally cheaper,than that cousins printed box but they,can also save you a lot of money when it,comes to actually shipping let's say,you're shipping a sweater from LA to New,York for your new company if you put,that puppy in a box and ship it via USPS,that's going to cost you ten dollars to,get across the country if you should,have the same sweater in a poly mailer,it's going to cost you two dollars and,fifty cents to get it across the country,that is a huge savings for the same item,traveling the same distance another,awesome thing about poly mailers is,exactly how customizable they are there,are so much you can do with your design,you could go shiny you could go mad with,matte ink combined matte and shiny do a,pattern all-over so big and bold or,smaller subtle or you could use metallic,inks shipping is often seen as a box,game and poly mailers get overlooked but,frankly that could be one of their best,assets for example this is a stack of 50,poly Millers and this is a stack of 50,boxes the fact that they don't take up,very much space but have a big impact is,awesome
