• Step one is to measure the Width, Depth and Length of the item that you are shipping.
• Step two is to determine the minimum width (W) of the poly mailer needed. Calculate Width + Height + 1.25 inches. The result is the minimum width.
• Step three is to determine the minimum length (L) of the poly mailer needed. Add Length + Depth (Height) + (Depth x 2). The result is the minimum length of poly mailer needed.
• Step four is to put the two results together (W x L) to determine the minimum sized poly mailer that you need.

So if you are sending out polo shirts that measures 9(w) x 11(l) + 2(d) all folded up then you would want to buy a 14 x 17 standard poly mailer or you might consider a little bit smaller size that already has a side gusset for a expansion poly mailer 10 x 13 + 2 gusseted poly mailer.
