How it works
Set up your catalog. Give every order a packing plan.
Add product dimensions
Record length, width, height, and weight in centimeters and kilograms for the variants you ship. Ceramics, folded apparel, and long items can live in the same catalog.
Add the packages you use
Enter the internal dimensions and weight limits of the boxes, mailers, and tubes you stock. Test mixed baskets in the simulator before packing live orders.
Recommend, preview, and print
Each order gets a package recommendation, a 3D placement preview, and a printable packing slip with steps your bench can follow.
Order example
Mixed orders often need more than one package.
Two mugs and a shirt can share a box. A rolled poster cannot. PackTune states that as a packing decision: Medium Box plus Poster Tube — not a single oversized carton.
- Each item is assigned to a package in your catalog.
- Orders that need two packages are shown as two packages.
- A new packer can follow the recommendation without guessing.

Why PackTune
Built for catalogs that do not all fit in one mailer.
Home, gifts, ceramics, apparel, pet, sport, auto, and mixed baskets rarely share one box size. PackTune is for Shopify stores where packing is a decision, not a habit.
Less packing guesswork
The bench question becomes which recommended package to use, not which empty box looks close enough.
Consistent fulfillment
The same order should not leave in three different boxes depending on who packed it.
Mixed-item orders
When one package cannot hold the whole order, PackTune can recommend more than one — box plus tube, mailer plus box.
Less unused space
Oversized boxes and extra void fill are often a decision problem, not a supply problem.
Faster training for packing staff
New hires can follow a recommendation instead of learning the catalog by trial and error.
Use the packages you already buy
You keep the boxes, mailers, and tubes you stock. PackTune helps you choose among them on purpose.
FAQ
Common questions about PackTune
What does PackTune do for Shopify orders?
PackTune recommends which box, mailer, or tube to use for each Shopify order based on your product dimensions and the packages you stock. Mixed orders can split across more than one package.
Does PackTune replace my carrier or WMS?
No. PackTune is a packing recommendation app. It does not buy shipping labels, quote live carrier rates, or replace a warehouse management system.
How do product dimensions work?
You enter length, width, height, and weight for the variants you ship, in centimeters and kilograms. PackTune uses those sizes with your active package catalog to recommend a fit.
Can I preview how items should be placed in the box?
Yes. PackTune includes a packing simulator, a 3D placement preview, and a printable packing slip with step-by-step placement instructions for the bench.
