Sending Hampers With
Confidence
With WBC, sending hampers and jars as a gift couldn’t be easier. Ultimately it’s your choice how you send your hampers and deli gifts. Be sure to weigh up the risks, and discuss it with your courier in advance. We’ve come up with a number of options for ensuring your hampers not only make it through the courier network in one piece, but arrive looking as fresh as when you sent them.
Card Hamper Boxes
You’d be surprised how simple but effective Card Hamper Boxes can be!
Available in a variety of useful sizes, cello wraps, lids and basket bags make light work of wrapping hamper trays. Of course wicker trays will always be a staple of our hamper packaging collection, but with a little know-how, try something different. It’s quick and easy to turn a conduit as ordinary as a wooden gift tray into a beautiful profit-generating gift with on-going use.
Many of our card gift trays come with cello-Lids designed to fit specific trays. The lids securely lock into place using unique tab closures. They give a highly professional finish, and are ideal for sending hampers as a gift through the courier network.
Don’t forget to shop our range of shred which protects the contents inside, while the corresponding protective outer is a perfect fit for ensuring your hamper arrives in mint condition.
Wooden Hamper Boxes
For a strong and sturdy option, wooden hampers are a great alternative. They also have the added benefit of having an ongoing use once the contents have been devoured. Don’t forget to add shred and the correct protective outer and consider topping it all off with a variety of finishing touches!
Wicker Hampers
For the ultimate in luxury, wicker says it all. Take care to pack contents snugly, and even these can be sent easily through the courier system.
Each product will have a recommended protective outer, but some may need a little added shred.
