What Shoebox Packers Are Saying
Frequently Asked Questions

Won't this take the fun out of shopping for items myself?
We understand that many dedicated packers find joy in the treasure hunt of bargain shopping. Western Star doesn't replace your creativity—we enhance it. Our products serve as a reliable foundation, freeing you to focus on the fun parts: choosing special themed items, writing heartfelt notes, and adding those personal touches that make each box unique. Think of us as providing the "essentials" so you can invest your time and energy in the "specials."

Do you have minimum orders that are too high?
Absolutely not. Western Star serves ministries of all sizes, from individual families packing 2-3 boxes to mega-churches organizing 1,000+ box events. We offer flexible quantities starting with small multi-packs, and our customer service team can help you calculate exactly what you need. Many of our products are available in quantities as small as 6 or 12 pieces—perfect for intimate church groups or family projects.

Every Western Star product undergoes testing that retail items simply don't receive. While store-bought toys only need to pass U.S. safety standards, our products must survive intercontinental shipping, function in extreme climates, and bring joy for years without replacement parts. Our Field-Tested Guarantee means each item has been proven in real-world conditions where children will actually use them. We're so confident in our quality that we offer a written guarantee—something no retail store provides for OCC purchases.
