A wide range of sizes
Sending something long, rolled, or awkwardly-shaped no longer needs to be a complicated. Our cardboard postal tubes are designed to wrap your items in sturdy, all-round protection, giving you the confidence that your posters, plans, or cylindrical products will arrive exactly as they left. Made from 65gsm spiral wound board, these tubes offer genuine structural strength without unnecessary bulk, so you can pack efficiently and post with certainty.
Every round postal tube comes fitted with white plastic end caps as standard, sealing the contents at both ends. It's worth noting these caps reduce the usable length of the tube by 15mm at each end, so it's worth factoring this in when you're measuring items for a snug fit. The caps sit securely in place, and if you're sending something particularly valuable, they can also be taped down for an extra layer of security.
We know that no two dispatches are quite the same, which is why our cardboard postal tubes are available in a wide range of lengths and diameters, including options above 100mm for bulkier items. Spare end caps are also available separately for a number of sizes, so you're never left short if extras are needed down the line. If you can't find the exact length you're after, our team is on hand to help you find the right fit.
How to use
Using a postal tube is straightforward:
- Roll your item - these tubes are ideal for posting items such as charts, maps, posters or documents
- Simply slide the item carefully into the tube
- Fit the white plastic end caps securely at each end, then add tape over the caps if you'd like extra peace of mind for higher-value items
- Once sealed, address and post as you would any parcel, or simply use the tube for straightforward storage
Sold in packs and priced per tube, our brown cardboard postal tubes are available in packs of 5, 10, 20, 25 or 50, with discounted rates for orders of 100 or more. Made from 100% recyclable and reusable materials, they're a sensible choice for anyone looking to combine dependable protection with sound long-term value. Tubes are delivered banded together and wrapped in a protective polythene cover, keeping everything secure right up until it reaches you.
