shipping box

Parcel delivery vessel

A shipping box is a cardboard container designed for transporting goods through mail or freight services.

Shipping boxes are typically sturdier than regular boxes, built to withstand handling during transit: I need to find a shipping box for this vase.

The term distinguishes boxes meant for sending items from storage boxes or gift boxes.
