And now with more environmentally-minded consumers, brands need to consider how sustainably to get these products to consumers.

This report presents the findings of an online survey conducted among a representative sample of 1,015 US adults 18 years of age and older, 505 males and 510 females. The study was fielded using ORC International’s twice-weekly Online CARAVAN Omnibus Survey and was ‘live’ during the period June 1-4, 2017.
Respondents were members of an online panel and had agreed to participate in online surveys and polls. As such, no estimates of sampling error can be calculated. All sample surveys and polls may be subject to multiple sources of error, including but not limited to sampling error, coverage error, error associated with nonresponse, error associated with question wording and response options, and post-survey weighting and adjustments.
Completed interviews are weighted by five variables – age, sex, geographic region, race and education – using data from the US Census Bureau to help ensure reliable and accurate representation of the total U.S. population, 18 years of age and older.

Newly releases research from Asia Pulp and Paper’s 2017 Paper & Packaging Consumer Trends Report found:
- Nearly four in ten Americans (37%) have had household items such as groceries, cleaning supplies, etc., delivered to their home via mail.
- 19% receive these kinds of deliveries once a month or more often.
- More than half (52%) of all consumers agree that the packaging of delivery items is often much larger than the item itself. Many indicated stores need to do a better job sending delivery items in packaging that better fits the product’s size and reduce waste.
