So yes the larger container does waist more packaging material and is
not considered to some as being "green" but it is also not green to have
to reship or track a lost order or use special handling on physically
smaller items.


Not much waste if you recycle that box or, better is to re-use it if
possible.


Actually we NEVER purchased boxes for shipping, we reused everything
including pallets for all of our shippments. The only thing we purchased
for shipping were shipping labels and shrink wrap.
