How to choose a large cardboard box

Start with the weight of your contents, then consider transit conditions and stacking requirements.

Large single wall, up to 20kg: One corrugated layer between two linerboards. Suits bulk lightweight goods, oversized retail products, and items that will not be heavily stacked. Cost-effective for high-volume despatch operations.
Large double wall, up to 30kg: Two corrugated layers for increased compression resistance and stacking strength. The standard choice for industrial fulfilment, heavy retail goods, and export shipments where single wall is insufficient.
Large triple wall, up to 500kg: Three corrugated layers providing industrial-strength protection. For heavy machinery, automotive parts, large electronics, and international freight requiring maximum load-bearing capacity.

For oversized or non-standard dimensions, RAJAPACK offers custom-made large cardboard boxes to your exact specification.

Frequently asked questions

What size is a large cardboard box?

There is no single standard definition, but large cardboard boxes typically start at around 500mm in their longest dimension. RAJAPACK categorises large boxes from 500 x 500mm through to 800mm+ formats, with extra large and XXL formats exceeding 700mm. For exact dimensions, use the box selector tool to find the closest match to your internal packing dimensions.

What is the difference between large single wall and double wall cardboard boxes?

Large single wall cardboard boxes have one layer of corrugated fluting and are rated for contents up to 20kg — lighter, lower cost, and suited to general warehouse despatch. Large double wall cardboard boxes have two layers, providing greater compression resistance and stacking strength for contents up to 30kg. For heavy, fragile, or high-value goods in a large format, double wall is the correct choice. For industrial loads above 30kg, use triple wall.

How much weight can a large cardboard box hold?

It depends on wall construction. Large single wall boxes hold up to 20kg. Large double wall boxes hold up to 30kg. Large triple wall boxes are rated up to 500kg and are suitable for heavy industrial and export shipments. Always check the specific product page for the weight rating of individual box sizes, as dimensions affect load capacity.

What are extra large and XXL cardboard boxes used for?

Are large cardboard boxes recyclable?

Yes. All RAJAPACK large cardboard boxes are 100% recyclable and manufactured with at least 70% recycled fibre content. To recycle: flatten the box, remove non-paper materials such as polypropylene tape, and place in kerbside paper and card collection. Boxes sealed with paper or gummed tape can be recycled with tape attached. RAJAPACK is Silver Sustainable Packaging Company of the Year 2025.
