Custom Packaging & Boxes in North Hollywood, CA

A show closes, a gallery opens, a dance company drops a new shirt line. The NoHo Arts District moves merchandise in short, unpredictable bursts, and stock boxes never look right on a merch table. Angels Print prints custom boxes for North Hollywood theaters, studios, galleries and restaurants out of our Sun Valley shop, roughly ten minutes up Lankershim. We handle the whole thing in house: mailer boxes for online drops, kraft boxes for studio retail, tuck-top cartons for candles and ceramics, printed tissue and shopping bags for the counter. Because we are close, artists come by with a prototype in a tote bag and leave with a dieline. Free local pickup means a weekend run of packaging can be sitting in the lobby before doors open.

Most creative packaging lives or dies in the first three seconds of opening, so we build around that moment. Custom mailer boxes print full color on the inside panel, whether that is a poster image, a cast photo or a line from the script, for close to the price of a blank one. Custom tissue with a repeating logo, a printed belly band, a die-cut insert that holds a mug and a vinyl sleeve without extra padding: those pieces cost less than people assume, and they turn ordinary ecommerce packaging into part of the show. For companies mailing merch after a run closes, E-flute mailers keep dimensional weight down, which matters far more than board price once postage stacks up across a hundred orders.

Restaurants along Lankershim and Magnolia ask for a different set of parts. Kraft boxes with a one-color logo for pastries and dessert to go, food-grade paperboard with a grease-resistant coating for anything warm, printed sleeves that turn a plain white clamshell into your brand for pennies a unit. Shopping bags come up constantly for takeout and retail alike: paper bags with twisted or flat handles, printed one or two colors, sized so a stacked order does not tip on the walk to the car. We also print the sticker seals that close a bag, which is the cheapest branding move on this list. If your logo only exists as a low-resolution file from an old menu, we redraw it clean so it prints sharp at any size.

Nobody rehearsing in a small studio wants a pallet of boxes in the corner. That is why small batch packaging is most of what we quote in NoHo: 50 to 200 mailer boxes for a single drop, 100 kraft boxes for a gallery opening, a couple hundred bags for a weekend market. Digital printing keeps those runs affordable, and reordering the same file later costs less because the setup work is already done. Custom structures take one to two weeks in production, while printed wraps, labels, tissue and inserts can move in 24 hours when a date sneaks up. Anything over $100 ships free, and if you would rather not trust a carrier, the Sun Valley pickup counter is minutes away.

Send whatever exists. Packaging printing in North Hollywood usually starts with a phone photo of a product on a table and a rough idea of quantity, and that is enough for us to propose two or three structures with prices next to each other. Vector art is ideal, but we work from flattened files and rebuild what we have to. Every job gets a flat proof showing fold and score lines before press, plus a physical sample when the structure is unusual or the run is large. Call (818) 806-9006, or come by the shop and put your hands on board samples. Kraft versus white, E-flute versus B-flute: that question settles itself in about ten seconds in person.
