Didn’t know this about Uline. When I saw the title of this post, I thought it was about how to stop getting sent their big catalog, lol.

Oof! Yeah they’re EVERYWHERE. I think they pay for some kind of list where anytime anyone starts a business ULINE gets your contact info

Thank you for this post, Jacob. I'm including it in my note to a company whose products just arrived in my mailbox today. I'll be including it in future emails as well. Whenever I receive something I've ordered that comes in packaging from ULINE, I send a note similar to the one below, which I just sent to a cute little company that is likely going to feed my new hobby addition:

Dear XXXXXX,

I love my order! It got here wayyyyy faster than I expected. Thank you! I am brandy new to XXXXXX. I love its portability. Yay! A new hobby! Thank you for your fabulous selection of colors.

I have one request: When I turned over the box and saw that it was made by ULINE, I was disappointed. They are an AWFUL company. Horrible.

I’ll stop there, but there’s more if you want to dig around. I find these attitudes offensive. This article is insightful. https://jacobreed.substack.com/p/how-to-break-up-with-uline-and-encourage

I used to use ULINE to ship my products until I discovered their values. I have since changed to Ecoenclose and have not looked back. Please consider finding another source for shipping supplies. Thank you……………………..Lisa
