When Should You Choose the XXL SecureBox?
The ultimate shipping protection for serious vinyl collectors.
At deRapWinkel.nl, we know how important condition is when it comes to vinyl records — especially for collectors. That’s why we developed a custom shipping box: the DRW XXL SecureBox. A true powerhouse when it comes to protecting your records in transit.
This heavy-duty outer box was designed exclusively for us, to serve as a second layer of defense around your inner mailer. Whether your order is large, valuable, or headed overseas, this box takes the hits so your vinyl doesn't have to.
Why use the XXL SecureBox?
Even with a strong mailer, heavier or bulkier packages face more risk — especially when handled roughly during transit. The more weight inside the box, the more impact it can take if dropped, especially on the corners.
That’s where the XXL SecureBox shines. It’s made from double-walled cardboard with built-in buffer zones that absorb shock and protect all sides of your order — especially the corners.
Its size also increases the chance that the box will be transported flat, which significantly reduces the risk of damage caused by vertical drops or stacking.
Key Features of the XXL SecureBox
-
Double-walled cardboard – exceptionally strong and resistant to pressure
-
Built-in buffer zones – protects corners from drops and rough handling
-
Easy to handle – designed to fit standard shipping flows without being oversized
-
Maximum protection – absorbs external impact before it reaches your inner packaging
-
Perfect for larger or valuable shipments – ideal when sending heavier orders or rare releases
-
Reusable, not disposable – the SecureBox is built to last and can be reused multiple times
When should you upgrade to the SecureBox?
We recommend the XXL SecureBox when:
-
You’re ordering multiple records at once
-
You’re shipping internationally
-
The record is rare, limited, or valuable
-
You want peace of mind knowing your shipment can take a hit
-
You’ve had issues in the past with bent corners or crushed packaging
Already placed your order but want to add a SecureBox?
No problem! Just send us a message — we’ll gladly add the SecureBox to your order.
You’ll receive a separate invoice via email, and once paid, we’ll ship everything together in one safely packed box — without additional shipping costs.
One more thing: what about seam splits?
While the XXL SecureBox protects against external damage, it doesn't prevent seam splits caused by records moving inside the sleeve.
To avoid that, be sure to select our free Seam Split Prevention option at checkout — we’ll remove the vinyl from the jacket and place it safely behind it, keeping the shrink wrap, hype sticker, and any numbering intact.
In Summary
If you're serious about protecting your vinyl, the DRW XXL SecureBox is a no-brainer.
It’s sturdy, reusable, and built for collectors who won’t compromise on condition.
The DRW XXL SecureBox — a box around your box, designed by deRapWinkel.nl for those who ship with care.
