Custom Packaging & Boxes in Van Nuys, CA

Between the repair bays on Van Nuys Blvd, the dealership back lots and the small shops around the Civic Center, a lot of Van Nuys businesses spend their week putting product into boxes. Angels Print builds those boxes to order. We print custom boxes for Van Nuys companies at our shop in Sun Valley, a short drive up the 170, and everything from the dieline to the final press sheet happens in house. That means corrugated shipping boxes for parts, printed mailer boxes for online orders, tuck-top cartons for retail shelves, and plain kraft boxes with a one-color logo when the budget is tight. Tell us what goes inside and how it travels, and we size the box around it instead of forcing your product into a stock carton that never quite fit.

Weight decides the board. A brake rotor, a stack of chrome trim or a case of shop fluids needs 32 ECT single-wall corrugated at minimum, and we move up to double-wall when the part is heavy or the route is rough. Lighter goods ride fine in E-flute mailers that fold flat and ship cheap. Custom mailer boxes are the workhorse for Van Nuys sellers moving parts and accessories through eBay, Amazon and their own storefronts: a roll-end tuck front box that needs no tape, printed inside and out, with a die-cut insert so nothing rattles across the country. We can add a tear strip, a second adhesive lane for returns, and your part number printed on the end panel so a warehouse crew can read the stack without opening anything.

Not everything you sell goes in a shipper. Product packaging boxes on a shelf get judged in two seconds, so those we print on 18pt or 24pt paperboard with a tuck-top or auto-bottom structure, then laminate matte or gloss so the panel survives handling. Kraft boxes are the other half of what we hear most: uncoated brown board, one-color logo, sometimes a white ink hit so the mark stays bright. Retail box printing is where small details pay off. A printed inside lid, a window with clear film, a barcode placed where the scanner finds it. If a Van Nuys shop needs the box, the hang tag and the counter signage to match, all of it comes off the same equipment in Sun Valley with the same color build.

Quantity is where most packaging quotes fall apart, so we quote it both ways. Digital short runs make small batch packaging realistic, whether that is 50 boxes for a product test, 250 for a seasonal item or a first ecommerce launch, while longer runs bring the unit cost down hard past a thousand. Custom die-cut structures usually take one to two weeks in production, because cutting and gluing are real physical steps. Printed pieces that dress an existing box, like labels, box wraps, tissue, packing slips and thank-you cards, can turn in 24 hours when a deadline appears. Delivery starts at $50, or skip the wait and pick up in Sun Valley on your way through, which most Van Nuys customers do.

Start with whatever you have. A rough sketch, the box you use now with a tape measure next to it, or a competitor carton you like the feel of can help communicate the design intent and contents. Before production export, ask us to confirm whether a current approved production source exists for the selected product and which revision applies; a planning layout does not establish an approved 1:1 dieline or fit. If your artwork already exists we check bleed, ink coverage and where the seams land before anything reaches press, because a logo cut in half by a fold is the most common file mistake we see. Call (818) 806-9006 or send the files over, and we come back with real board specs, a real price and a real production date instead of a vague range. Ask whether a physical box sample is available for your project; confirm its structure, timing and cost before committing to a full run.
