What is a maxi letter box?

Smaller and more compact than a folding box, roomier and more robust than an envelope: the maxi letter box is your solution for sending important documents and printed matter, as well as small goods of a lower weight. You'll find the right maxi letter box for you at packaging warehouse - functional, robust and versatile. The special plus: every maxi letter box is tailored exactly to the maximum dimensions of Deutsche Post! Excess postage costs due to oversized packaging? You can save yourself from now on.

How much does a maxi letter box cost - and how heavy can it be?

The cost of your maxi letter box depends not only on the size and material, but also on whether the maxi letter box should be printed or unprinted. The weight of the maxi letter box determines the shipping costs. Don't forget to subtract its own weight - between approx. 50 and 150 g depending on the size - from the weight of your shipment. The lighter the goods, the cheaper: if your maxi letter weighs up to 500 grams, you pay 1.95 euros postage with Deutsche Post, for example. You can also get the right maxi letter box from us for shipping abroad. An international maxi letter can weigh up to 1,000 g (7 euros), with a postage surcharge of up to 2,000 g (17 euros). Its size is based on minimum and not maximum values. In addition to the maxi letter box, there are other shipping options available to you - with your own dimensions and specifications. You can find more information on shipping solutions such as Maxibrief Plus, compact letter and large letter or DHL Parcel S to L in the overview provided by your Post.

How much fits in the maxi letter box?

The maxi letter as a 5 cm high packaging solution is suitable for every industry. You can use it to send flat goods weighing up to 2 kg (Maxibrief Plus) at low cost. The dimensions of 35.3 x 25 cm are identical to those of the large letter, although the large letter is only 500 g and 2 cm high. The lid of the box is already bulging? This is counterproductive for protection and postage, as your maxi letter box becomes a small parcel costing at least 3.99 euros. But if your item fits exactly into the maxi letter box, the savings will increase your margin. In addition, low shipping costs are often the deciding factor in whether customers buy from you or your competitor. But what is possible within the permitted dimensions? A maxi letter box provides enough space for the formats DIN A6 (10.5 x 14.8 cm), DIN A5 (14.8 x 21 cm) and DIN A4 (21 x 29.7 cm); book and merchandise items may also be square.
Maxi letter box calculation
Popular dimensions for the maxi letter box are:
 
  • 150 × 100 × 50 mm 
  • 180 × 130 × 45 mm
  • 180 × 100 × 30 mm
  • 220 x 140 x 40 mm
  • 240 × 160 × 45 mm
  • 320 × 220 × 50 mm
  • 350 × 250 × 50 mm
Please note: Please note: When ordering your maxi letter box, you are planning with the inside dimensions of your packaging! You must therefore subtract the thickness of the box. The thickness of a maxi letter box depends on the type of corrugated cardboard: for an E-flute maxi letter box this is 1.5 mm, for a B-flute maxi letter box 3.0 mm

Which packaged goods travel well in a maxi letter box?

Anything and everything, as long as it's small and flat! Not only important documents and books, but also small items such as spare parts and cell phone accessories. This is particularly inexpensive, but without liability and tracking (without registered mail) as a book and goods shipment (in German: BÜWA). Ideal for sending samples and specimens, for example. Individual messages must not be enclosed with the consignment, but invoices and delivery bills can. Whether it's a consignment or tariff maxi letter, your maxi letter box is easy to deliver because it can go straight into the letterbox - saving your customer a trip to the post office or parcel station.

What other cardboard packaging is available?

We also offer cardboard boxes in fixed standard formats - an inexpensive solution, unprinted or as printed hinged boxes. All our free-format and fixed-format hinged boxes (maxi letter boxes, large letter boxes, parcels), optimized for shipping with Deutsche Post and DHL, are also available with practical adhesive strips. As with all our maxi letter boxes, large letter boxes and packaging for DHL parcels from S to M, we use high-quality corrugated cardboard, some of which can withstand loads of up to 14 kg. Whether plain or individually printed, brown in brown or all-round in white, they are all available from just one piece - and ready in just five days thanks to express delivery. Naturally sustainable: made from 99% recycled paper, they can be recycled again after use - or go into the compost.

Why the corrugation makes all the difference: maxi letter boxes made of corrugated cardboard are available in three corrugated cardboard versions

We recommend our E- and B-flute for maxi letter boxes. Both materials combine the best properties of stability, impact resistance and good printability.
Maxi letter box in E-flute
Maxi letter box in B-flute
Maxi letter box in EB-flute

Maxi letter box as E-flute:

E-flute stands for ultra-fine flute - with a corrugation height of 1.5 mm. The E-flute type ensures stable boxes with a load capacity of 10 kg. The smooth surfaces of E-flute maxi cartons are easy to print on thanks to the narrow 3 mm flute pitch. A lightweight E-flute maxi letter box helps your shipment to comply with the permitted 1,000 g and saves you maximum postage.

Maxi letter box as B-flute:

B-flute stands for fine flute - with a corrugation height of 3 mm. Very strong and stable, a B-flute maxi letter box is ideal for packaging even sensitive products weighing up to 20 kg. A flute pitch of 4.8 mm ensures even, easily printable surfaces. Due to higher corrugations and greater spacing, the air cushions within the B-flute corrugated board are slightly larger - for even greater edge crush resistance and burst strength compared to the E-flute.

Maxi letter box as EB-flute?

Possible yes, not really necessary: The EB-flute combines the advantages of the E-flute and B-flute, so that the load capacity climbs to up to 30 kg thanks to this material mix (flute height 4.5 mm) (maxi letters are rarely that heavy)! Good printing results can also be achieved on EB-flute - with a narrow flute pitch of 4.8 mm. Packaging made from EB-flute is the winner in terms of edge crush resistance and burst strength - ideal for shipping sensitive goods.
 


Which other service providers send maxi letter boxes?

If the post office and DHL go on strike, shipping service providers such as Hermes, DPD or PIN step in. Their range of services has certain special features. Are you opting for Hermes parcel shipping? CO2-neutral via compensation, you can have your small shipment in a maxi letter box delivered to one of the 16,000 parcel stores nationwide from 3.70 euros; your recipient will be notified by email. Shipment tracking? Only included for doorstep delivery (from 4.50 euros), liability for parcels up to 50 euros. Payment is made when the parcel is handed in or online, including parcel label creation (even without a printer), which saves you approx. 1 euro for many shipping formats. How big can the smallest Hermes parcel in the maxi letter box be? The longest and shortest sides together have a maximum length of 37 cm. As a parcel service, Hermes also offers you many other formats from S parcels to XXL parcels including bulky goods surcharge. Collection from your premises is also possible. Determine parcel class? You simply add the longest and shortest sides - the dimensions determine the price. Hermes offers a shipping cost calculator; the parcel label is available as a PDF for printing and as a QR code for verification in the ParcelShop. The Hermes ParcelShop Finder shows you where the nearest one is.

What distinguishes the shippers PIN and DPD?

The service provider PIN advertises low prices and four-day delivery times to attract eCommerce business customers who frequently send books and goods. Interested? Drop your books and merchandise in a maxi letter box in one of the 550 green PIN letter boxes or hand in your maxi letter box at one of the 150 partner stores or one of the 18 depots. A consignment of goods up to 500 g costs 1.60 euros net, up to 1,000 g 1.87 euros net. Prelabel franking (sent free of charge) means that the postage is only calculated during the sorting process. Billing takes place later, by monthly invoice.

DPD shipping service provider
DPD is also courting business customers with its DPD Mail and ParcelLetter services for the international dispatch of business mail and catalogs. DPD wants to score points with private customers and immediate senders with its online price savings and range of services. You can hand in your small insured parcel in a maxi letter box at one of the 7,500 Pickup parcelshops. Or you can pay for shipping online, print out your parcel label in the office (or have it sent to your cell phone) - and wait for a DPD courier to collect the shipment. For the parcel size, add together the shortest and longest sides. The cheapest option is called DPD Shop2Shop: You pay online, but hand in your - trackable - shipment at the Pickup parcelshop. Changes on receipt? The DPD Parcel Navigator also allows the consignee to make changes at short notice. The smallest DPD shipping option XS has a maximum size of 35 cm, costs 3.29 euros or internationally from 9.90 euros - depending on the country and delivery zone (DPD does not deliver to some parts of the country, such as Spain's Canary Islands). What is particularly in DPD's favor: all parcels must be rectangular, packed in cardboard and stackable. The maxi letter box meets these requirements perfectly!

How sustainable are maxi letter boxes?

A maxi letter is a sustainable form of shipping - starting with the integration of GoGreen for climate-neutral letter shipping by Deutsche Post, which offsets transport emissions by investing in climate protection projects. A maxi letter box is also a perfect fit: the more precisely the contents fit into the packaging, the less filling material you need. Above all, however, our sturdy, affordable maxi letter boxes are environmentally friendly because corrugated cardboard ensures a small carbon footprint. The corrugated cardboard for the maxi letter box consists of a high percentage of recycled cardboard - depending on the corrugated cardboard liner. The company's own recycling rate - almost 100%! - is also impressive; the printing is also environmentally friendly. After use, the maxi letter box goes into recycling, over and over again - up to 25 times. Still too soon? Then the maxi letter box will continue to serve as shipping packaging or storage, both commercially and privately. Our magazine article "New recycling guidelines from FEFCO" reveals what else is important when configuring recyclable maxi letter boxes.
