Heavy Duty Triple Wall Gaylord Boxes

Yes, Gaylord boxes are specifically engineered for stacking when loaded on pallets in warehouses or during transport. Their triple wall construction and high Edge Crush Test (ECT) ratings allow multiple filled units to be stacked several tiers high without collapsing, provided weight limits and proper alignment are maintained.

Gaylord boxes are also commonly known as bulk bins, bulk containers, octagon bins, or bulk boxes. The term "Gaylord" originated as a brand name that became the generic industry term for large corrugated containers used for bulk storage and shipping of loose materials, parts, or products.

Load capacity depends on the box's ECT (Edge Crush Test) or Mullen burst rating, as well as pallet base and stacking configuration. Triple wall Gaylords typically handle several hundred to over a thousand pounds per unit, with higher ECT-rated boards supporting greater stacked and palletized freight loads.

Yes, custom Gaylord and bulk box sizes are available in both short and long production runs, typically with a 7-10 day turnaround. Custom dimensions, wall construction, and liner grades can be specified to match unique bulk storage, industrial, or shipping requirements.

Mullen burst strength measures a board's resistance to puncture from a single point of pressure, commonly required for single-box UPS or FedEx ground shipments. ECT (Edge Crush Test) measures stacking strength and is preferred for palletized, stretch-wrapped freight. Triple wall Gaylords are available in both rating systems depending on application.

Select triple wall and heavy-duty corrugated boxes are available in MIL-SPEC weather-resistant configurations, including V3C and W5C grades, compliant with ASTM D5118 and ASTM D4727 standards. These are suited for military, government, and hazmat shipping applications requiring documented regulatory compliance.
