01 What Are Custom To Go Boxes?
Custom to go boxes are printed takeout boxes made to carry meals from your kitchen to your customer. They keep food tidy in transit and carry your logo, menu highlights, and social handles, so every order promotes your brand.
02 What Styles of To Go Boxes Are Available?
We make handle-top boxes, lunch boxes, clamshell boxes, and boxes with window cut-outs. Handle-top boxes suit catering and group orders, lunch boxes suit individual meals, and clamshells suit hot items and sandwiches.
03 Are To Go Boxes Grease-Resistant and Leak-Resistant?
We offer grease-resistant and leak-resistant board options that help boxes hold up to oily and saucy food. No paper box is fully leakproof for liquids, so tell us what you serve, and we’ll recommend the right board and coating, or advise on a liner for very wet items.
04 Are Custom To Go Boxes Food Safe?
Food packaging needs materials and coatings suited to food contact. Ask us about food-safe board and coating options, and confirm that your final packaging meets FDA requirements before production.
05 Can Compartments and Inserts Keep Food Separated?
Yes. Compartments and inserts keep sauces, sides, and mains apart in transit, so flavors don’t mix and presentation stays neat. Tell us your menu items and portion sizes, and we’ll recommend a layout.
06 Can I Add a Window to a To Go Box?
Yes. A window cut-out shows the food inside and helps customers see what they are ordering. Tell us the window size and position, and we’ll place it in your design. Food-safe window film is available on request.
07 What Can I Print on a To Go Box?
Your logo, menu highlights, social handles, website, and brand artwork in vivid full color. You can also print inside the box for a message or promotion.
08 Who Uses Custom To Go Boxes?
Restaurants, cafés, food trucks, caterers, and meal-prep brands use them for takeout, delivery, catering, and weekly meal plans.
09 How Do I Size a To Go Box for My Menu?
Send us your portion sizes or the size of your food containers, and tell us if you need compartments. We’ll design a box that fits your food without crushing it.
10 What Are the Minimum Order, Sample, and Turnaround Terms for To Go Boxes?
Orders start at 100 boxes, so you can start small and scale up to bulk quantities. A flat view and 3D mock-up come with your design, and a physical sample is available on request. Production typically takes 6 to 8 business days, and we’ll confirm timing with your quote.

Ordering packaging with my own logo from Aqua Printers was the best decision for my brand. Beautifully printed, strong, and it gives a luxury feel to every package. My customers are impressed every time they open it.

I didn't expect anyone to comment on packaging. After switching to Aqua Printers, customers kept posting pictures of it and our branding on social improved dramatically. It basically became free marketing for us.

Very happy with the final product and it shipped to me quickly. The proof stage caught a colour issue before production, which saved us a whole run. I'll be coming back for more.
