I am very happy with my bottles. I have a juice bar and am using them for that . I looked everywhere Canadian and USA even China and you were the best price . The website stated Canadian dollars and when I talked to someone at your office the quote was in U.S dollars so people have to be careful with that. Even when I added the shipping in your price was still better. The shipping was great, here less then a week. I am from Ontario so all went well with that. Thanku for helping me:)

Just ordered some samples so that I could see how the product looked before I bought. The samples fast with tracking. They were also well packaged so they would not get damaged. If they take this much care to ship out samples I can't wait until my order gets here.

We love these bags! They even caught the attention of some of our customers who have now switched from plastic to biodegradable products in their own homes!
Easy to order and super fast shipping! Have been using them for about 1.5 years since we opened our business and couldn't be happier!

Hi Tracie,
Thanks for the feedback. The shipping cost that is generated is quoted by our shipping partners and factors in the dimensions of the box that is needed (depending on the enclosed products) as well as the distance to the delivery location. I hope that that helps to explain that cost. If you have any additional questions regarding how these prices are calculated, please feel free to give us a call. Our support team is always happy to assist!
We can be reached at 866-971-9251 ext. 1.
Thanks,
Heather
Excellent customer service received our shipment right away. Status of delivery was good too! Thank you!

Ordered from website
Told 24-48hrs later product was out via email.
Then told delay for all orders due to storm (understandable)
Sales and shipping ON PHONE were very nice and communicative.
Decided to cancel order and RE assess for order was time sensitive.

Good Start Packaging provides a much-needed green alternative in an industry which is fraught with carbon offenders. The public response to our company's switch has been phenomenal, and we are very pleased with our choice. Additionally, our rep Mark W. is very responsive to all manner of concerns, no matter how small, he is always happy to provide his thoughts. We appreciate his help greatly as we move through this transition.

Have a great week.
Kind regards,

My unique product requires packaging that is not available at Good Start Packaging. It seems there are other products but are not available through GSP. However, I do appreciate the customer service and love the deli containers that I currently use. The covers are not ideal since they do not stay secure when handling them. I will continue to support and keep trying new items that come available.
