About Us

With our "whatever it takes" approach, our sole focus is to provide the resources and expertise you need to run your packaging operations most efficiently.

Our Approach

Yes, we sell some of the best packaging, shipping, safety, and janitorial supplies in the industry. And others will say the same. So why choose United Packaging? Because you need a partner, not a vendor.

When others are simply order takers, we take a holistic, consultative approach. Everyone wants to save money. Of course. But, when others will simply offer you the cheapest tape, we'll show you how using the right tape can actually save you more. When others are myopically fixated on unit cost or case cost, we're looking at the big picture for even better, long-term savings.

And, sometimes, those savings come in the form of other efficiencies like properly managed inventory, streamlined packaging, better equipment, and decreased safety issues. We'll help you spot the waste and eliminate it.

We're in it for the big picture and we're always up for a challenge. We have decades of experience. Some of our clients have partnered with us for over 20 years for this very reason. Our team consists of seasoned industry veterans, Six Sigma black belts, and young "up and comers" who bring a fresh set of eyes to old problems.

Consider us full service. Whether you need help getting the right supplies at the right price or something more comprehensive like proactive inventory management, off-site stocking, logistics, or packaging equipment, we're here for you.

"I have had nothing but great experiences with United Packaging. They always respond to my requests within 24 hours (most of the time it's within just a couple hours). Deliveries are always on time. They have also been very proactive with reaching out to me to make sure I don't need any supplies. In this fast-paced world that we now live in, United Packaging has always been there to accommodate me!"
