Testimonials

I had the pleasure of working with the Local Mile Box on a project for 904 gift boxes. The event was a huge hit and the team are still talking about this one of a kind gift box that was created by the Local Mile Box. If you were to look up the word customer service in the dictionary The Local Mile Box would show.

Sandy H. about The Snowflake Box

Great assortment of items. My aim was to get this box to have little hostess gifts etc. on hand but I don't want to give any of this away. I look forward to the next one.

Kathleen D. about The Snowflake Box

I can't say enough amazing things about The Local Mile Box! I purchased a winter box and loved all of the items that were chosen. I decided to get a custom box made for my mother-in-law as a birthday gift. She loved everything in the box, including how beautifully packaged it was. Lorrie helped me hand pick each item, and I love that all these items are from local businesses! Thank you so much for making my mother-in-laws birthday so special!! I will definitely be ordering again!

Margaret E. about a Custom Gift Box order

It arrived. As expected, beautifully done. Top notch products to enjoy-all items will be fun to use. Job very well done, congrats to you both.

FAQ

What can I expect to find in a surprise type box?

The Spring Bloom Box, Summer Sunshine Box, Fall Harvest Box and the Winter Snowflake Box are our surprise type boxes. Inside you can expect to find 7-10 items that tend to be feminine based and are handmade right here in Canada all from one featured community. (For example the Winter Snowflake box 2020 featured only businesses in the Kitchener, ON area) Items inside will range from things for you to things for your home. You will also be introduced to the person/company whose hands made the items inside through a itemized card. This is an ideal way for you to learn more about their business or purchase more products from them if you wish.

How do I make sure I don't miss out on a surprise type seasonal box delivery?

To make sure you don't miss out on our limited amount of surprise boxes (Bloom, Sunshine, Harvest and Snowflake) you can purchase a Four Season Box Collection and save 10% off the regular price of a individual box purchase and we will automatically send you a surprise box every season for a year. Alternatively you can subscribe to our newsletter. This is where we announce when we are about to launch our next seasonal surprise box.
