Where to buy bubble wrap

Bubble wrap can be purchased or ordered in office and packaging supply stores. It often comes in the form of sheets, bags or rolls. Based on your specific needs, you can find bubble wrap in varying thicknesses, which is in reference to the height of the bubble. The thickness of bubble wrap is usually found between the range 3/16 inch and 1 inch. The standard sizes are 1/8 inch, 3/16 inch, 5/16 inch, and ½ inch.  Not only can you find different sizes in regard to thickness, but you can also find bubble wrap in which the diameter of the bubbles itself are of different sizes.


In order to determine what size of bubble wrap you need, you will have to first consider what it is specifically you want to back. For instance, if you were to purchase bubble wrap that had a thickness of ½ inch and bubbles with a diameter of 1 ¼ inch, would be useful for medium to larger items that are less fragile. On the other hand, if you intend on packing more delicate items, you should use small bubble wrap which would have a smaller thickness and diameter.

To seek the best protection when packing items, it is recommended to use multiple sizes of bubble wrap. For instance, you can wrap a delicate item in small bubble wrap to secure and then fill the space inside the box or container with larger bubble wrap. So regardless of what you may need, you can order a variety of bubble wrap and other packing supplies “one stop-shops” such as Papermart.
