McKernan Packaging Clearing House
For over six decades, McKernan Packaging Clearing House has been a trusted source for high-quality packaging components. 
McKernan’s History
Founded in 1959, McKernan was an innovator by buying and selling unused surplus packaging, laying the foundation for their “Best Value” line. This was later joined by a growing wholesale line, eventually leading to the selection and variety for which McKernan is known. Today, McKernan continues to serve businesses of any size, with in-stock packaging designed to complement any brand.
A New Way to Buy
McKernan’s new ecommerce platform offers a faster, more flexible way to buy packaging. Customers can now browse a curated selection of wholesale packaging components, check real-time inventory, view pricing and place orders at any time. McKernan’s online ordering is designed to offer businesses a simpler option when needing quick turnarounds or smaller volumes—while still complementing the traditional phone-ordering experience. Customers can reorder trusted components or explore new options, all while shopping with the convenience of online ordering. For more information, email [email protected].
Surplus Specialists
“We Buy Packaging!”
Turn unused packaging into opportunity with McKernan’s We Buy Packaging program, which offers businesses a smart, sustainable solution for clearing excess inventory. In 1992, McKernan coined the term “Precycle,” becoming a pioneer in the green movement by giving packaging components a second chance while helping companies recover value—McKernan even covers the shipping. When you need to clear inventory in a short amount of time, call McKernan. To learn more, visit WeBuyPackaging.com or email [email protected].
