Packaging Supplier in Chicagoland
Local supply and sales support in ChicagolandAugust Packaging supplies corrugated boxes, stretch film, carton sealing tape and protective packaging to manufacturers, distributors and fulfillment centers across Chicagoland. Your packaging is stocked locally through our 3PL partner facility in the Chicago market, and our sales team supports you here.
Packaging for the country's biggest freight hub
Chicago is the largest rail and intermodal hub in North America, and the region's warehouses, food plants and manufacturers move a huge volume of product every day. That volume is hard on packaging: long truck and rail lanes, mixed pallets and high-speed packing lines all expose weak boxes and cheap film.
We help Chicago-area shippers spec packaging that holds up on those lanes. That means box grades matched to stacking and transit, stretch film that contains loads through intermodal moves, and tape that seals in cold docks through a Chicago winter.
