Your brand, in every box
Everything you need to know about custom packing slips
A packing slip is the document that travels inside a shipment listing what’s in the box — the order number, the items, quantities and the ship-to details. A custom packing slip does exactly the same job, but it’s printed with your logo, brand colors, a thank-you note or a discount code instead of a plain black-and-white grid. For ecommerce stores, wholesalers, subscription boxes and fulfillment operations, that turns a functional document into part of the unboxing experience and a low-cost marketing touchpoint in every parcel.
Because they’re customized to order, the right specification depends on how you pack and ship. This guide walks through the sizes and formats available, the paper stocks that affect look and cost, how integrated label-and-slip sheets streamline fulfillment, how the ordering process runs from artwork to delivery, and how bulk pricing works. If you already know what you need, you can request a custom quote at any point.
A branded slip works twice — order record and marketing
A generic packing slip is something the customer glances at and throws away. A custom packing slip printed with your logo does the same job — confirming the order and helping with returns — while reinforcing your brand at the exact moment the customer opens the box. Add a thank-you message, a reorder code or your social handles and that document becomes a quiet, repeatable driver of loyalty and repeat purchases.

Packing slip sizes: which format do you need?
Slip size affects how much detail you can print, how it folds into the box, and how it works with your printer or thermal setup. Compact 4×6 slips suit small parcels and thermal printers; larger 5.5×8.5 and 8.5×11 sheets give room for detailed itemization, notes and marketing. Here’s how the common sizes compare.
Sheet size (longest side)
A5 measures 148×210mm — the common international equivalent of the half-letter slip.
Printable area (square inches)
More area means more room for itemization, return instructions and marketing — at a slightly higher paper cost.
| Size | Best for | Detail room | Thermal-friendly |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4×6" Compact | Small parcels, poly mailers, thermal printing | Essentials only | Yes |
| 5.5×8.5" Popular | Most ecommerce orders, subscription boxes | Good | Sheet only |
| A5 (148×210mm) | International orders, DL-friendly folds | Good | Sheet only |
| 8.5×11" | Wholesale, B2B, detailed multi-line orders | Maximum | Sheet only |
Paper stock and formats that fit how you pack
Custom packing slips are printed on standard uncoated paper stocks that write well, fold cleanly and keep costs down for high-volume shipping. Lighter bond weights suit large runs where every gram of shipping weight matters; slightly heavier text stocks feel more premium in the hand for brands that want the unboxing to feel considered. Recycled and kraft-look stocks are popular with sustainability-focused brands.
Format is just as important as paper. Loose printed sheets drop into the box or a document sleeve; padded sets tear off one at a time at the packing bench; and integrated label sheets combine your shipping label and packing slip on a single peel-and-place sheet, so packers print once and handle one piece of paper per order. Choose the combination that matches how your team actually works.
- Uncoated bond / offset stock — writes cleanly, folds without cracking
- Heavier text stocks — a more premium feel for the unboxing
- Recycled & kraft options — for sustainability-minded brands
- Loose sheets or padded sets — match your packing workflow
- Integrated label-and-slip sheets — label and slip on one page
- Black-and-white or full color — from budget runs to branded showpieces

One slip, many jobs
How custom packing slip pricing works
Custom packing slips are priced per unit, and the per-slip price drops as your quantity climbs. Your final quote depends on four things: size, paper stock, color (black-and-white vs. full color), and total quantity. Larger runs and simpler printing bring the unit cost down the most.
