Mondae Vanderwalker's Review Sourced from Google
Too bad there wasn’t a negative star review because that’s the type of experience I had. So sad that they can’t even make it right with a customer My first time experience with this company they told you what you wanted to hear. To sign up with their company offered great rates. Than gave you great rates for another offer they did but come to find out the next day with a senior analyst, they didn’t offer those services any longer for what they said for the additional but came back in the thousands of dollars for the next step up program. When I declined the offer several times. That upset the senior analyst he kept calling me Wendy when the day before I told him my name was Mondae. So several times after correcting him what my name was. He started calling me names like we were in high school putting me down left and right. His response oh I’m sorry Tuesday Wednesday. My husband told me to hang up because he was very disrespectful. So I hung up then he called me back and started calling me more names saying Friday I’m so sorry that we couldn’t make this work out for you but your company will get no where. So I hung up again then he called back again but I never answered. Then he proceeded on leaving me a text. His text read Best of LUCk Mondae😂…. I was just Joshin you.. Good luck figuring all this out. Very unprofessional. Than I we called to complain to upper management but they didn’t seem to concerned about how their employee treated me. Save your money there is company’s out there that don’t need to bad mouth other companies or lie about what they are where you should be with the platform. Because the senior analyst also told me that he would have my business up there within days unlike the other company I had for 2 months all ready going on 3 and that company should of had me on the top by now. I researched it and it does take several months to get up there. So new companies don’t believe what apex people have to tell you they are ok with their employees lying to you not only once but several times just to get your business. Totally wrong to take advantage of new smaller companies you should be ashamed of yourselves. Then when I was talking to the woman supervisor I asked to talk to his supervisor her response was I can let his supervisor know but that’s all I can do. Horrible first time experience. Very unprofessional and disrespectful all the way around.

Renee is a nasty and mean person and she seems to be hyped up on Red Bulls or something. I gave up on getting service from them. Drove me crazy.
Nicole J's Review Sourced from Google
I made the horrible mistake of going through this company for graphic designs, and photo books. The photo books look as if they were printed by Walmart. I go through Walmart for almost all my printing of pictures for photo books and they look the exact same as Walmart has done them. My graphic deigns were done horribly and no refund was given when asked. WILL NEVER BE GOING THROUGH THIS COMPANY AGAIN, Nor will I recommend to anyone.

Nick Armstrong's Review Sourced from Google
Terrible Customer Service!Completely unprofessional and unhelpful. My four businesses have been going here for over 10 years at this point. Something must have changed in the last year or so because they do not do a good job and don't care about you as a loyal customer and refuse to help you. Their shipping has failed multiple times, and when you ask for help, they either have no answers or can't do anything. I spoke with a manager, he promised to follow up and never did. He told me he’d send a email and update me, that never happened. On top of that, he raised his voice at me, which was totally out of line. There are far better options out there. We found a company that did the same job for nearly $100 less, with free shipping. We got it rushed too! And was still cheaper! Avoid this place if you value your time, events, and money. And if their shipping messes up, good luck getting help from Got Print, they will do absolutely NOTHING to help you out. To them that’s just not their responsibility. They ruined a part of our event for their incompetence when I did everything I was supposed to do ordering. And even if shipping messed up, you still have a responsibility to help. I’m sure I’ll get some boiler plate response from them because I’m sure they’re too lazy to even do proper customer service. I’m not gonna call you back, you’ve lost my businesses and all my friends businesses.
Keren Marroquin's Review Sourced from Google
I was hesitant with all the terrible reviews I read, but I needed a foam board for a bridal shower welcome sign and Got Print was half the price from staples AND it was printed double sided which I needed since I’m hanging it from a rack that will see it on both sides. I also was close enough to Burbank where I could pick up and avoid the delivery chaos. So I figured I’d roll the dice. Staples was charging double and only single sided. This came out perfect!! Photos show my digital design and then the final product. Just what I needed. Thank you Got Print!I ordered at 8:50pm on July 1st and this was ready for pick up at 12pm on July 3rd. So fast (I did pay a few bucks more for rush production and for the drilled holes on top to hang with ribbon) but total was $42.Will be using again!
Delbert Kim's Review Sourced from Google
Update: I previously gave this company a 4 star, but I'm altering it to a 1 star. 14 days (9 business days) after placing an order, my materials are still "in production". No communication. It's undependable at this point and I'll no longer be using this company. ////// I've used this company a few times now for business cards and appreciate their speed. The consistency of the cuts could be better, but I don't have a large sample size to compare the quality of their cuts vs other companies... maybe it's as good as it gets. I have to knock off one star because of the shipping cost. For 600 business cards, their cheapest shipping option was over $19...

A top packaging design company in the US builds packaging systems that influence product perception, brand credibility, and purchase decisions. These firms design labels, containers, cartons, and packaging visuals that align brand strategy with physical and digital shelf environments.
Such services generally include:
Packaging design companies help businesses build packaging that supports branding, compliance, and conversion by helping them:
Over 90,000 people search for unboxing videos on YouTube each month, which shows how packaging influences purchase interest and brand perception.
72% of consumers will purchase a product if they find it visually appealing.
What’s more, 78% of consumers believe that the sustainability of a product’s packaging is crucial when deciding on a purchase.
Those growing expectations for sustainability and differentiation are helping to push the packaging design market toward $35.06 billion by 2032 from its current value of $26.64 billion (4% CAGR), according to a report by Coherent Market Insights.
Packaging design budgets depend on the number of products, materials, and production constraints. Project pricing scales with scope, customization, and production demands:
Folding cartons usually cost $1.80–$2.25 per unit, while premium rigid boxes range from $8.50–$10 per unit.
While it is possible to find rates as low as $25 per hour, most US packaging design agencies generally charge $100–$149 per hour, driven by higher labor costs and specialized design expertise.
This puts US rates at the higher end of the global market compared to Europe (≈$50–$75/hr) and Asia (often under $65/hr).
Budgets vary by industry due to differences in materials, compliance requirements, and production complexity:
With the world’s largest packaging design market (35% in North America, per Coherent Market Insights’ report), there are plenty of agencies to choose from in the US.
Beyond creative skill, look at strategic thinking, technical precision, and production readiness.
We’ve assembled a selection of top packaging design companies on DesignRush across a range of budget levels to help you find a partner that fits your needs.
| High budget: $100-$150 per hour |
|
| Low budget: $50-$100 per hour |

DesignRush features packaging design agencies across multiple pricing tiers, which allows you to compare firms by hourly rates, project minimums, service focus, and verified reviews. You can filter listings by specialization, industry experience, and team size.
Before hiring an agency in the US to help your business, here are some questions to ask:
Rated 4.8 on Google and 4.7 on Trustpilot, DesignRush Agency Directory is a reliable resource for finding a packaging design agency in USA. We owe this to our executive selection team, which follows a strict screening process when featuring agencies on the platform, assessing key performance indicators, like portfolio, client reviews, and industry reputation.
