Are your box dimensions accurate?
Yes, we provide internal and external measurements for all boxes in inches. If sizing is critically important, please contact us for an exact measurement or order a sample before placing your bulk order. Box measurements vary +/- 1/16"
How can I guarantee stock?
Our website is live, so unfortunately we cannot guarantee stock for every product. If a box is out of stock, there will be a message to advise when it will be back in stock, you can also sign up for a back in stock email. Contact us for more information and to reserve incoming boxes.
Can I preorder boxes that are out of stock?
Absolutely, please contact us if you see an out of stock message and you need exact timing.
How should I store the boxes?
The boxes should be stored in a cool dry location and away from damp conditions, i.e garage. Boxes will fade if left in direct sunlight. Storing boxes in damp or too hot locations will cause the sticky corners and magnets to fail.
How do I order large quantities?
If desired quantity is not available online, please contact us to place your large order.
How are the gift boxes assembled?
Our gift boxes ship flat and are easy to assemble. Remove the double sided sticky corners and press firmly. The boxes are closed with a magnetic closure located in the flap and on the front of the boxes, fold the flap back and forth a few times to help with the rigidity and help the magnets stick together.
Please see our assembly guide for more information.
Help! My corners aren't sticking!
We use top quality, double side adhesive tape. If you are having trouble please try the following:
1. Make sure to reveal the sticky substance.
2. Ensure that you are pressing firmly for full adhesion.
3. Do not over stuff the boxes.
4. Cold and hot weather can affect the glue and make it more brittle. Make sure boxes are stored at room temperature.
If you're still experiencing problems, this could be due to shipping temperature changes, storage and many other factors. We do have replacement 3M double sided adhesive tape that we can send you free of charge.
Also, please see assembly guide for complete instruction.
If that doesn't solve your problem - please contact us within 30 days for replacement, refund or credit towards your next order.
Help! My magnets aren't working!
Magnets like being together. Our boxes use very strong magnets and you should not experience any problems. Because our boxes are folded flat the magnets may take a bit to get used to each other. Try bending the top flap up and down carefully as not to tear the box. Magnetic force will be stronger after the box has been closed for several hours. Do not over fill the boxes as the pressure will force the magnets apart.
Ensure that magnets are lined up together. They can also be affected by cold and hot weather.
In the rare instance that the above steps do not work, contact us and we will work with you to remedy the issue.
Are your boxes recyclable and eco friendly?
Yes they are, if the front flap is removed. The magnets are not recyclable and will need to be disposed of separately.
We 100% support recycling efforts, but also strongly believe in reuse instead of recycling. The recycling process uses energy and some waste and only by reusing boxes can we truly reduce our environmental impact. Here at GBM, we are committed to doing our part to save the environment and believe the best way to help the environment is to not throw anything away.
Our high quality gift boxes will last a lifetime and can be used for many purposes other than gifting.
