If your boxes will fit in the priority bubble mailer it will ship for mailer price plus your candles are still protected by the box at cheaper rate

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

Oh my gosh.... this whole time I thought the 4x4x6 box didn’t fit. I ASSUMED it didn’t fit.. but it fits!!! Wow. Thank you!

[@georgettearmstrong9068]

You are very welcome!

[@cliviascreations]

The 9x5x3 also fits inside the bubble mailer

[@jolenefetterolf4771]

Georgette Armstrong Is the bubble mailer located with the flat rate boxes?

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

jolene fetterolf yes it’s under the USPS free boxes, I have it linked! It’s called a priority flat rate envelope :)

[@HsuLiving]

This information is awesome.I"ve been stressing about the shipping of my candles and your information has eliminated the stress.Great channel.Blessings!!!

[@lavenderwarrior1]

I have it in the highest HD setting possible, and your skin looks fantastic!

Where do you find those plastic boxes that hold the Tea light samples in??

I want to know so bad! Lol

[@shanegrier1381]

im hopign to one day start a candle business and i was kinda worrying about how to know what sizes to do for multiple orders so very helpfu;

[@Carmen-bo2wr]

This was the part of my candle making process that I'm currently stuck on but this video has helped so much! Thank you for this information! All of your videos have been so helpful :)

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

I’m so glad :)

[@hubbardstoncandlecompany5089]

For anyone looking for Priority Mail Cubic rates ShipStation also offers this.

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

Oh I didn’t know this, thank you!

[@sunshinehandcrafted]

Can you do a video about your warning labels, how you make them, and the sizes you use for each product? I love your videos they have helped me so much. Your wax melt smells amazing.

[@sonicamy4518]

Great video, Erica! I use several of the same boxes you do. I use the postal service a lot using the 7.75$ envelope and the medium flat rate box, I also use the small flat rate box. They have a large flat rate box too, I've only used it once, can't remember the price though. I think 22.00$ and you can jam a ton of stuff in there. We used a few of them one year to ship the grandkids Christmas gifts. Sometimes you just can't be there!😥

[@ilenewhite5542]

Hi I have 2 questions: 1) what size box should I use if I’m using 8oz Candle jars? I think the size box you’re using will be a bit too big for my candles. What do you think? 2) where can I purchase those clear containers in your video that you using for the sample tea lights? I planning on send a few friends samples of my scents for feedback. Those would be perfect. Thanks. Also all of your information is soooooo helpful. I appreciate it.

[@VALEROSEMUSIC]

Thank you this was so helpful! Also, your skin is perfect! beautiful!

[@RandySoWavvy]

I just ordered the 4x4x6 box you recommended I’m hoping since my candles are 6oz and 8 oz jars I can fit multiple in the box so I won’t need to order multiple different size boxes at least for now 😊

[@thebrushlush2291]

Thank you for the info Erica. Do you mind sharing where did you get your tealight boxes?

I have a question my regional rate box a had writing on it can I still reuse it

[@donnaperry2954]

Just a quick fyi I ship. my candles in the 4x6x6 and 8X6x4 both can fit that priority padded envelope. Both will ship for $7.75 :)

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

Yesss!! I just learned that it’s amazing! 🥰

[@donnaperry2954]

@@MemoryBoxCandleCo Its a little tight for the 8x8x4 but it will fit lol. Just FYI I have learned so much from your videos. I went from making beauty vids to making candles and you have helped my process out so much. Thank you!

[@testepp0001]

Erica, First of all you are a beautiful young lady, no foundation needed. Thank you so much for all your help! All of your videos are very informative. Could you please do a video on sink holes! I am going crazy, is there a good way to prevent them?

[@deborahmelvin9253]

Would you recommend the 8x6x4 for 2-3 10 oz jars?

[@cosmicroyaltyX7]

Where do you get those boxes?

[@SimpliiManii]

We have 8oz tins as well and use the 4x4x6 boxes to ship them. Granted we’ve shipped about 2-3 tins in that size box but it could still work if your shipping more than one

[@themerazfamily4711]

Do 10 oz candles fit ??

[@jacquelinetrejo6141]

Thank you so much Érica you are awesome!!❤️

Do you leave it to the customer to choose also what would you choose if your adding shipping to candle price.

How would you ship tea light candles that have embeds sticking out of the tops?

[@jafallica]

You’re a wealth of information.

[@SamanthaJadeMinor]

This was beyond helpful!! Thank you for all of the information!

[@inanutshell688]

Can you share how you package if you are shipping your jar and a container/s? I switched to containers because a jar broke but I had a container dent for the first time which I think was due to shipping 4oz and 8oz containers together. Thank you for your response

[@gabyschmidt22]

You should look up Scotty stuffers for the flat rate envelope, it’s brilliant! I got mine from eBay.

[@HarmonyandHope7]

Erica, I’m interested in testing different fragrances for wax melts using the same melted wax. Have you done this? If so can you make a video? I’m thinking I should pour the wax in different containers then add fragrance at the right temp

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

Hmmm, I haven’t done that. I usually melt the amount of wax needed per scent ❤️

[@MsBeauTIFFull]

This video was right on time! I launch tomorrow and I already have those boxes from Uline but I was wondering about what to ship the wax melts in..Thank you! You're the best!

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

Yay good luck! ❤️

[@nateberry7630]

What are wax melts used for I’m thinking about making them but I don’t know what they are used for

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

They are used for putting into wax warmers. They don’t use a flame, just a light bulb and it heats up the wax melt and disperses the scent!

[@nateberry7630]

Memory Box Candle Co o cool I make candles if you want to see them I have a Instagram @liferoad candles I would be so excited if you could give me advice on my candles

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

Omg stop 😍😅❤️❤️

[@valerielamb6477]

Hi Erica! Do you have the customer pay the entire price of shipping, do you include the shipping costs in your price and list it as free shipping, or do you add some of the shipping cost in the price and charge the customer a fixed shipping cost? I’m worried that customers will be turned off by large shipping costs so I’m debating adding some of the shipping cost into my candles. Thanks! By the way, I didn’t even notice you weren’t wearing foundation. You look great! I’ve been dealing with cystic acne since I was about 13, and I’m 23 and still can’t find the solution for it. But honestly your skin looks awesome!

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

I add the shipping cost into my prices, that way I can offer free shipping! And ahh thank you! I completely understand the struggle. It was horrible for so many years. Check out “Hyram” on KZbin. He’s a skincare expert and I wish he was on KZbin when I was struggling, my skin has improved even more from listening to his knowledge/recommendations! ❤️

Great vid Erica! How do you decide how many of the uline boxes to purchase/keep on hand?

[@helenastaats6327]

Hi! I love your videos, this was really helpful. One question though. What to do when you walk in at USPS and they say they never heard of cubic priority mail ?

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

You don’t use priority mail cubic at the post office, you use it on pirateship.com (you pay for the label on pirate ship, print it out, put it on your package and then drop it off at the post office) ☺️

[@andeewood9546]

Do your customers like the tin candles? I’ve been thinking about switching to tins instead of jars since I have a lot of problems with wet spots. Also thinking about switching to a white or black candle jar. Just more expensive.

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

This is my first week selling them! But so far the feedback has been positive :)

[@cstarr0215]

I know this may seem like a weird question but do your tea light candle plastic cups have issues burning as far as safety goes? I’m still pretty new at candle making and would love to use the tea lights for samples, but I’m scared that if someone burns it in their counter it’s gonna melt.

[@kathrynmalloy6286]

Love your videos!! So I haven’t officially launched yet I am about to have a soft launch to friends and family and they all ordered a ton! Like one aunt ordered 12 13.5 oz candles (woo hoo!) but I have no idea which shipping service/box I should use?! Can you give me some guidance I need to ship soon 😬 Side note - I don’t know if this is the same for candles but I do know UPS does really well when it comes to shipping higher weight items I went to ship a very large frame wooden frame at that and the shipping for that was only like I think it was $13 or something like that and so that is crazy and expensive considering how big this thing was so I didn’t know if you’d ever used UPS before to ship candles but I just really wanted to know what your recommendation is for shipping a dozen candles thank you so much!!

[@jessrabot6562]

Hi! Love your videos! I'm very new to the candle game and was doing my research and joining a bunch of fb groups when I came across something that I didnt even realize was a thing for homemade goods... general liability insurance?! Just curious on which route and what companies you suggest or where I can find more info... ive already put in an order for supplies for Christmas gifts to family and friends but I was thinking about selling aswell once I got the hang of it but insurance would put a major damper on the financial part of that... any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you... and stay AWESOME!

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

Check out indie or soap guild insurance. I believe they are made for handmade items. Don’t go through Next (I made that mistake and now I’m looking for another insurance company)

[@jacquelinetrejo6141]

Do you use thermal bubble wrap on the candle tins?

[@MemoryBoxCandleCo]

I do! Just a little strip horizontal around where the wax is :)

[@savanna.shares]

Have you looked into easyship.com? One of my business friends said it’s better rates than pirate ship. I’m not sure on the specifics since I didn’t find it, but maybe check that out!

[@joyosterhoutmcneil3395]

Hey girl, I’m just curious how it works with various state taxes. Have you encountered this yet? Someone had said you had to register in each state??

Are you talking about sales tax? If so, Etsy collects sales tax for me so I don’t have to worry about it :)

Hi! I’m dealing with shipping... Do you think people will feel like $10 for shipping is too much or shouldn’t they understand?

[@Sariahrobinss]

I feel like it might be a good idea to try incorporating your shipping cost or at least part of it into the price of your item so you can lower the shipping cost your customer
