Bespoke Boxes to Combat Boredom

Bespoke Boxes to Combat Boredom

Have you watched every box set, completed DIY jobs and read every book on the shelf? If weeks in lockdown have left you and your partner at a loose end, Buckt UK could fire up the fun.

Monthly Subscription Boxes to Keep you Entertained

Buckt UK is a monthly subscription box that includes 5 monthly activities to do at home. They include physical activities, mental challenges, online course and digital entertainment. You are provided with the ‘ticket’ to take part and the resources you need to give it a go.

The content of these boxes is kept a mystery, so there is the element of surprise as you explore what’s inside. It is great value and will encourage you to try out all manner of things that you may not have considered before. Here is some feedback from their customers:

“Amazing range of activities each month (stuff I didn’t even know existed!). Amazing staff always willing to help…a complete bargain. Would and have recommended to all my friends!!”

“An amazing little box of activities that we look forward to on a monthly basis. Regardless of preferences, there is always something we want to do in the box. The value of the box more than offsets the price which is pocket change anyway. If anyone is thinking about this, I’d highly suggest you at least try it as there is no obligation to stay.”

Adapting the Boxes as Business Evolved

Inspired by the idea of the ‘bucket list’, Buckt UK launched in Birmingham. Initially, the boxes included a ticket to a local event or attraction based in and around the city. As the concept caught on and the geographical range extended, they developed the concept. The original idea was called Buckt UK Go and a new option Buckt UK Home was launched. This included quality online workshops and digital entertainment.

The shift in direction has enabled Buckt UK to continue their subscription box service throughout the lockdown. Like many other small businesses, the ability to adapt to changing circumstances is the key to success.

Printed Boxes at a Great Price

Buckt UK approached Aylesbury Box Company for a quote. They wanted quality printed cardboard packaging that was competitively priced. The packaging needed to be branded with the company’s design and sufficiently robust for sending a variety of contents.

After initial discussions, we sent a few samples which enabled Buckt UK to make informed decisions about what would work. With specifications agreed, we dispatched the first box order last year. Their feedback was as follows:

“Just had 2000 boxes delivered and the quality is exceptional. A few reasons why I would recommend these guys:

• The price is – from the research I conducted – a lot better than the competition.
• The quality is exceptional
• Delivery was included, which many other box companies didn’t provide
• The Minimum Order Quantity was lower than a lot of the competition, but they still managed to beat them on unit price, which I was very surprised about.”
