Step 1. You may wish to start searching for wholesale suppliers in your local area. A good starting point would be to visit your local packaging or stationary shops that sell bubble wrap. You should talk to a sales person and see if they would be able to offer you a deal if you purchased the bubble wrap in larger quantities i.e rolls. An alternative would be to ask them if they could put you in touch with their suppliers or wholesalers.
Step 2. A quicker way to find local suppliers would be to use internet search engines. Within the search engine screen select your local country in order for the search results to be more local. Within the search box type in “buy bubble wrap wholesale” or “bubble wrap shop packaging”. You can now start investigating the results by clicking on each link and reviewing each web-site in turn. It is advisable to scan the first 2 to 3 pages of results as the cheapest or better quality shops will not always appear first in the list. In one particular search http://www.manuli.co.uk was found. On visiting the site and clicking on the “Bubble Wrap” product link it was found that anyone could buy varying quantities and sizes of different bubble wrap at many different prices, for instance; A pack of 500 x 50 Standard Large Bubble Wrap x 50 Meters which contained 3 rolls was £24.67 (8.22 per roll). If you like the price, pick the number of items/packs needed and add them to your shopping basket. Before completing any transaction it is advisable that you read the delivery terms and conditions so that you are aware of any extra costs and when you would expect your item to be delivered. It is also worth mentioning that many wholesale companies offer a quotation service for large purchases and also allow some customers to purchase items via a credit account. This can be very useful if you are repeat buying. Once you are happy to purchase the goods you must complete your transaction by going to your shopping cart, enter your payment method, delivery detail and then wait for you shipment to arrive.
Step 3. Use an auction site such as e-bay and see if there are any open auctions for wholesale quantities of Bubble Wrap. Again be sure to read the delivery instructions as this will inform you of any hidden costs or delivery restrictions.
