This may be a silly question does anyone store there mug boxes in a cold environment like a garage as I am wondering if there is any adverse effects to doing this like them going kind of brittle etc.
Cheers and sorry for the silly question lol

Hi Craig
There are no problems in storing mug boxes in a cold environment. You should know as you have been to my house and I have no central heating so you know how cold it gets LOL!!!

You could line your walls with poly boxes, home made insulation

Well mine are also in the garage as where else would anyone store such a large volume of low weight items. It is the reason I prefer cardboard mailers.

These boxes would be kept in warehouses by the manufacturers, and your suppliers - which I doubt would be heated.

I've worked in a few warehouses and i'll guarantee they're colder than a garage, normally the bloody roller doors are left open all day

causing a nice breeze.

I can vouch that our warehouse is cold and there are no adverse effects. Our roller doors are open most of the day as well, but last couple of days staff have been down to just wearing t-shirts as they're rushing around like... err I mean carefully packing orders
