13 year old post but still applies.

Over the years we've swapped over to non static peel strips but if the clean up struggle is real then this tip will save you! You're welcome!!

{TIP} Do you ever sit down with our reseal bags for a big night of packing and end up flick flick flick flicking the tape around your workspace? Pop a big loop of sticking tape somewhere nearby, and just dab the strips onto the tape. No more flicking and makes clean up EASY!!

Just on the off chance you're looking for awesome clear bags to preserve 1960s NME or Melody Maker mags....

Picking up from our Vermont warehouse is a great option!

Once you've entered your address at checkout, choose 'free pick up' and wait on a text from our team to let you know it's ready. Then swing past at your convenience (Mon-Fri 9am-5pm). Plenty parking spaces at the front left side.

If you're outside the catchment for the pick up option, just enter our address (203 Rooks Road, Vermont 3133) and it'll appear as an option.

*** IMPORTANT SUPPLY UPDATE ***

Like many businesses, we’ve been closely monitoring global supply chain pressures and rising fuel costs. I’d like to share how Pack It In is positioned to manage these challenges, what steps we’ve already taken, and how we plan to move forward, so we can provide you with as much certainty as possible.

FREIGHT COSTS
Our website pulls shipping rates directly from our carrier accounts, so the prices shown in your cart will reflect any increases in fuel levies. Carriers across the board are currently raising these levies — Australia Post is set to increase theirs over the weekend — and most apply changes on a 1-month delay. This means that even if fuel costs begin to ease, shipping rates may take some time to follow.

Where possible, we recommend placing larger orders less frequently, as this is typically more cost-effective than ordering smaller quantities more often. If you’re local, you can also take advantage of our free click-and-collect option from Vermont.

BAGS
The cost of manufacturing our bags is influenced by three key factors: raw materials (a byproduct of the fuel industry), exchange rates, and sea freight costs. Over the years, we’ve carefully timed our production runs to avoid peak pricing pressure, helping us keep our pricing as stable as possible.

We currently hold strong local stock levels in our Melbourne warehouse, with many sizes covered for more than 1.5 years.

However, 12 sizes have now fallen below 8 months of stock. Under normal circumstances, this would trigger a full container order from our factory. At present, though, our film supplier’s raw material costs are sitting 30% higher than usual, and it’s unclear whether prices will continue to rise or begin to ease.

Manufacturing a full container at these elevated costs would not be financially responsible, as it would require passing on significant price increases. Instead, we will only produce the sizes that are both low in stock and in highest demand. For lower-volume sizes — or those with close, well-stocked alternatives — we will delay production until pricing improves.

What you need to know:
If you regularly purchase any of the sizes below, we recommend topping up soon, as current supply is below two months:
• 75 x 100mm bagside
• 460 x 620mm
• 510 x 700mm

There’s no need to stock up on other sizes at this stage. If price increases become necessary over the coming year, they will be modest and spread across the full range, rather than concentrated on the sizes affected by current peak costs.

If there’s a specific size you rely on and would like an update on availability, feel free to get in touch — we’re happy to provide guidance based on current stock levels.

BOARDS
Our raw board material is sourced from a mill in Malaysia. While material costs are generally stable, they are affected by freight pricing and shipping delays — factors we didn’t want to leave to chance.

To provide greater certainty for our customers, we made the proactive decision to pre-purchase $55,000 worth of board stock, allowing us to lock in pricing for the next 4–5 months. This stock is already secured and on hand in Melbourne, giving us confidence in both supply and pricing through to approximately August–September, when we very much hope global conditions will have improved.
