FAQ
Ordering
Is TreatBox Letterbox Friendly?
Yes, we do offer letterbox-friendly TreatBoxes!
We have a dedicated collection of Letterbox TreatBoxes, which you can explore here.
However, whether your TreatBox fits through the recipient’s letterbox will depend on:
Letterbox size – Dimensions vary between homes.
Delivery service used – Special Delivery requires a signature.
Postal worker discretion – Placement may depend on the individual delivering the box.
Larger products – Some items, such as our Mugs and Candles, are not letterbox-friendly and may require the recipient to be home for delivery.
For the best chance of letterbox delivery, we recommend choosing from our Letterbox TreatBoxes collection.

Do you really handwrite every gift message?
We sure do! And we love it! You all spread so much love, it is truly amazing
Why was my order not sent in a letterbox friendly box?
We always aim to make orders letterbox-friendly whenever possible. However, if your order includes larger items, the box size will be adjusted accordingly.
Some Build Your Own TreatBox items require extra space, and certain luxury add-ons may need a larger box to ensure they arrive safely.
If you have any concerns about the size of your order, feel free to get in touch—we’re happy to help!
Why does my box contain less shred than in the website images?
The shredded material in your box is primarily used to protect your items during transit. The amount included may vary depending on the contents of your order—some items require more protection than others.
We also aim to balance product safety with reducing waste, ensuring your order arrives safely while minimising environmental impact.
