Grey Mailing Bags 21×24" (533×610 mm) – extra-large capacity, fast to pack
Grey mailing bags 21×24" (533×610 mm) give generous room for bedding sets, pillows, bulk textiles and larger boxed goods while keeping parcels lightweight. Made from tough 60-micron recycled LDPE, they’re moisture-proof (water-resistant), opaque for privacy, and close in seconds with a self-seal strip.

Why this 21×24" size?
When 17×24" starts to strain, 21×24" adds height for bulkier apparel bundles, duvet covers, throws and mid-size retail boxes—without jumping straight to heavy cartons. Need more width rather than height? Try 20×26" (wider, slightly shorter).
Real use examples
- Textiles & home: bedding sets, pillows, throws, towel bundles, large cushion covers.
- Apparel: coats, knitwear bundles, multi-item clothing stacks.
- Boxed goods: mid-to-large retail boxes and gift sets with inner wrap.
Fit & packing guidance
- Best fit: bedding/textiles, stacked apparel, bigger boxed kits.
- Need more width? Use 20×26".
- Need less bulk? Step down to 17×24" for a neater seal and lower postage.
- Corner care: pad sharp inner-box edges to reduce punctures.
- Press out air: flatten before sealing so labels sit flat and sacks/totes stack cleanly.
Key benefits
- Self-seal, tamper-evident closure for rapid packing.
- 60-micron co-extruded film helps resist tears, splits and scuffs.
- Moisture-proof / water-resistant outer for wet routes.
- Opaque grey for privacy and a clean, uniform look.
- Recyclable LDPE — remove the glue strip before recycling.

Eco & Materials
Material: 100% recycled LDPE (resin code 4), co-extruded for strength and opacity. Recyclable in many UK schemes — please remove the adhesive strip first. Not biodegradable or compostable.
Strength & Protection
60-micron film is puncture- and tear-resistant and moisture-proof. The self-seal, tamper-evident adhesive forms a permanent bond once pressed.
Storage & Performance
Store at 13–21 °C and out of direct heat/sunlight. Let cold stock acclimatise before use to maintain adhesive performance.
Lightweight = Lower Postage
Recycled LDPE mailers are exceptionally lightweight, helping you keep parcels in lower weight bands versus boxes.

- Apply labels on a smooth, clean area; press firmly for reliable scanning.
- Add invoices/returns in a clear document wallet outside the bag.
