Ordering Gift Boxes for Your Whole Team? Start With This Checklist

Ordering Gift Boxes for Your Whole Team? Start With This Checklist

Sending gift boxes to a whole team sounds complicated, but a little planning up front makes it simple. Here is the checklist we walk through with our corporate clients before a single box is packed.

1. Confirm Your Headcount

Count everyone — including leadership, new hires who start before the ship date, and anyone on leave you would like to include. Adding a couple of extra boxes is wise; someone always gets remembered at the last minute.

2. Set a Budget Per Person

Decide what you would like to spend per recipient, covering the box contents and shipping. A clear per-person budget helps us suggest the right mix of items — a candle, a mug, something sweet — without surprises later.

3. Note Dietary Needs and Preferences

If your boxes include cocoa, cookies, or other treats, ask about allergies and dietary restrictions ahead of time. We are happy to swap treats for non-food comforts like journals, socks, or candles where needed.

4. Decide How They Will Arrive

Boxes can ship to one office for you to hand out, or individually to each recipient's home — the better choice for remote and hybrid teams. If we are shipping individually, send us a simple address list and we will handle the rest.

5. Leave Room for Lead Time

Hand-packed boxes take a little time, especially in larger quantities. Reach out a few weeks before your send date when you can, and we will confirm a timeline that works.

6. Write the Message Cards

Every box can carry a message card with your words. Keep it short and warm — a sentence or two from the team means more than a paragraph of formality.
