Fast Food Takeout Boxes
Built for the delivery era, so it is square, stackable and closed for a fifteen-minute ride.
Delivery changed the specification: boxes now sit in insulated totes among other orders. Square footprints, level tops and closures that hold through handling are what that requires.

Every detail. Intentional.
Designed for totes
Square and level, not just presentable.

The full kit of capabilities.
Sizing & dieline.
We cut Fast Food Takeout Boxes to a dieline built around your product instead of pulling a stock size off the shelf. Send us the length, width and height of the item (or the item itself) and we return a measured dieline, free, before you commit to anything.
Length, width and height of the item itself, at its widest points. Measure the product, not the box you happen to use today.
Allow 2–4 mm on each axis for a snug fit, and more if you are adding foam, a pillow insert or tissue.
We quote as Length × Width × Height. Tell us whether you are working in millimetres or inches and we match it.
✦ Not sure of your size? Send us the product and we measure it and build the dieline.
Pricing & minimums.
We price Fast Food Takeout Boxes per specification rather than from a fixed list, because the same build in two different finishes can land at very different numbers. Below is what actually moves the price, so you can shape the spec before you request a quote.
The single biggest lever. Unit cost falls sharply as volume rises, because setup and tooling spread across more pieces.
Board weight and stock choice change both the raw material cost and the shipping weight of the finished run.
Foil, spot UV, embossing and soft-touch each add a pass on press. One or two lift the box; five compound the cost.
Full-bleed print inside and out costs more than a one-sided design on natural stock.
Foam, moulded pulp, velvet pillows, magnets and ribbon are priced per piece on top of the box itself.
Standard production is the base rate. Rush moves you up the production queue and carries a surcharge.

Questions, answered.
Everything you need to know about Fast Food Takeout Boxes.
A square footprint, a flat top and a closure that holds when the bag is carried at an angle. Delivery boxes sit in insulated totes among other orders for fifteen minutes or more, so they get stacked, tilted and leaned on. Tapered boxes shift and collapse under that, which is why we do not put them forward for delivery work.
The vents are tuned to the trip length too, since a closed bag traps far more humidity than counter service ever does.
In one motion, a couple of seconds per box, because the blank is cut and creased to lock into shape as it is opened. Assembly speed is the first priority on this format. A few seconds saved per box, multiplied by a lunch rush, is real labour. We avoid complex multi-fold designs for the same reason.
Blanks ship flat and store flat, which also keeps the back-of-house footprint small.
Yes, the combo option adds a divided interior so a main and a side travel in one container instead of two. The divider is part of the same blank, so it does not add an assembly step. One box per order keeps the bag simpler to pack and the meal simpler to unpack.
The full interior is coated, because in a closed box grease reaches every panel and not only the base.
Kraft board with one or two colour flexo for independents and street food, full CMYK on white for chains that want photographic artwork. E-flute corrugated is the board to specify where boxes carry stacking load in delivery bags. Inside print is under-used and cheap to add: the customer sees it at the moment of opening, and it is usually blank.
Spot colours are matched to Pantone so the brand stays consistent across every box format you run.
Most operators use 6 x 5 x 3 inches for a single main and 8 x 6 x 3 inches for a meal with sides, measured outside, length by width by height. Keep the footprint square or near-square where possible. Square packs tighter in a tote and shifts less in transit.
Bring us the portion you serve and the bag your drivers use and we will size the box to both.
We take orders from 500 boxes per size and print. Because operators usually want two or three sizes, each size counts separately for the minimum. Tiered pricing starts above 1,000 and runs up to 100,000 per order.
A mixed order across sizes is quoted as one job, so the setup is shared.
From approved artwork, count 7 to 10 business days for a standard run and 5 to 7 business days if it is rushed. Sample boxes are ready in 5 to 7 business days. Fill one, close it, put it in your delivery bag and drive it around the block. A closure that survives that trip will survive a driver.
When the production order follows, the sample fee is deducted from it.
Kraft, clay-coated and E-flute boxes with a PFAS-free barrier are fibre-based and accepted in paper recycling where the local programme takes lightly soiled food board. The PFAS-free spec also matters for compliance, since several states now restrict PFAS in food packaging.
Heavily greased boxes are better composted, and the same fibre stock is suitable for that where a facility exists. We keep the barrier compliant across the whole range so you are not choosing between print and recyclability.
