What Are Packing Peanuts?
Packing peanuts are a convenient way to protect items while preparing for a shipment or move. They provide more padding than newspapers. Packing peanuts also work well with bubble wrap in bulk. Packing peanuts in bulk are perfect for low-volume packing and help to prevent objects from settling inside shipping boxes.
What Are the Most Common Features of Shipping Peanuts?
Bulk shipping peanuts have a variety of benefits and are a great addition to shipping supplies. Features include:
- Anti-Static Properties: Anti-static packing peanuts protect electrical equipment from static discharge.
- Easy to Carry: Bulk shipping peanuts are lightweight, which prevents adding extra weight to a shipping box and making it harder to carry.
- Keeps Items Cool: Packing peanuts in bulk are resistant to humidity, moisture and temperature, creating the perfect environment for your items.
What Types of Bulk Packing Peanuts and Bulk Bubble Wrap Are Available?
Purchase bulk packing peanuts by the cubic foot, with options available in either 7 or 14 cubic feet. Bubble wrap in bulk comes in a variety of lengths, ranging from 50 to 175 feet.
Width is another important measurement to consider. Wider rolls accommodate larger items, minimizing the need for double-wrapping with narrow wrap. Most options are 12 feet wide. Some bubble wrap features perforated edges every 12 inches so it’s easy to portion.

What Types of Objects Ship Best with Bulk Shipping Peanuts?
Bulk foam peanuts are perfect when shipping a variety of items. When shipping especially fragile items, it makes sense to wrap products in bubble wrap first and then surround them with packing peanuts. This offers two levels of security and peace of mind for expensive products.
For an odd-shaped shipped item, it's easier to pour packing peanuts around the object than to cover every side with bubble wrap. Purchase packing peanuts in bulk to safely protect frames, computers and other fragile items. If you’re moving, consider stocking up on bubble wrap in bulk to cover the sharp corners of bed frames, dressers and television sets.
How Can You Dispose of Bulk Shipping Peanuts After Use?
Bulk shipping peanuts are versatile and they serve multiple purposes. They are 100% biodegradable and can be thrown in your compost piles when you finish using them. They can also be used as drainage filler in the bottom of your planters.
