Teach Soap

Has anyone used "containerandpackaging.com" for bottles etc? Looking for shampoo bottles and they have some nice stuff, but usually try to find someone who has used a company before I dive in

I do and have. They have good prices for items bought in bulk.

Just bookmarked that site for future reference - it looks like a place I can spend lots of time browsing!

I order from CPS regularly. Their shipping is SUPER SLOW. And I mean from the time placing the order, to when it leaves their facility. They have 3 different warehouse - widely scattered across the USA. Every time I order, I get different packages from different places - jars from Utah, caps from Kentucky, etc.

Just something to plan for - give yourself plenty of time.

Thanks for the heads up! That is definitely good to know before ordering.

I hadn't been to their site before---great selection! Prices seem very fair until you hit the last checkout page and see the shipping (which I kind've anticipated). $19 shipping to ship a $57 cart? Nah... I'll keep getting my containers from WSP, for now.

Yes, the shipping is expensive AND slow - and to those of us in Canada, it is outrageous!!

But........... they are the only place I can find that carries my containers without a 10,000 piece minimum. *sigh*
Packaging is my biggest expense - if the jar is 50 cents, it costs me a dollar by the time it gets to me.
I even use one of those drop shipping/mail forwarding places for some stuff. It helps a bit. but comes with its own set of annoyances.

ain't bizness FUN?!?
