What's A Packout?
As you get into shipping perishables (or anything, really), you'll start to hear certain terms. "Packout" is one of 'em, and it's super simple: It refers to how you pack your box.
People get post-graduate degrees in this, but if all you're doing is shipping desserts and food that has to stay under 70°F or so, your packout can be pretty simple.
From the bottom to the top:
- Cardboard box, 200# test is usually fine.
- Insulated liner, 1-1.5" thick
- Product (Paleo Treats and snacks for us)
- Gel pack (sometimes we put this next to the Treats)
- Bubble wrap
- Dry Ice
- Insulated top
- Cardboard box
Super. Easy.
You got this!
