The perils of dropshipping ceramic mugs

Some items are pitfalls you can avoid for a better swag experience.

Accidents happen and things break, especially when you are drop shipping fragile items and unfortunately, ceramic mugs are one of them. We all love sending a fun branded coffee mug, but no one likes to get that call that they loved their swag but their mug is broken. 😱 

This is probably one of the ugly truths as swag that a lot of vendors don’t talk about. We can pretty much vouch for that even with additional packaging, padding, better boxes, you name it - at least one or two will still break. Yes, you could order more mugs, but who wants to run the risk of having one recipient with a bad experience? You’ve already spent time and money on investing in swag, so let’s make it a good one! 

Do this instead. Here are some mugs our team highly recommends for dropshipping to ensure you and your recipients have a great experience and have you dodging that awful call that their ceramic mug is broken. 




🌟  FEATURED SWAG PICK

The Tin Can

WHAT WE LIKE ABOUT IT:

The quintessential cup for enjoying a refreshing drink at the campsite, BBQ or picnic. With an understated appeal, the Tin Can is one of our favorite mugs. Points for subtle style and functional usage. This impact-resistant 16 oz. enamel mug is made by hand and features a beautiful yet durable finish.




🌟  FEATURED SWAG PICK

The Camper Cup

WHAT WE LIKE ABOUT IT:

Hot drinks that stay hot and cold drinks that stay cold? Heck yes.

This mug is for all the people who want their favorite drink with them wherever they go. We love the Camper Cup for its roomy size and luxurious-to-the-touch powder coated finish. This 12 oz, double wall, stainless steel, thermal mug features copper vacuum insulation and a clear push-on lid with matching swivel closure. 




🌟  FEATURED SWAG PICK

The Explorer Mug

WHAT WE LIKE ABOUT IT:

If you didn’t know what the big deal is about mugs with a cork base (aside from looking hella nice), here’s the secret: no more ugly cup rings, no more awkward clunks when setting down your mug.

Because who needs water stains on their desks?

The Explorer Mug instantly elevates any workspace. You get a stainless steel thermal mug with copper vacuum insulation, a clear push-on lid, and a matte powder coated finish. Plus a nice roomy handle, so no finger cramps from awkwardly sized mug handles. It’s the little things that count.




🌟  FEATURED SWAG PICK

Stemless Tumbler

WHAT WE LIKE ABOUT IT:

Okay, to be honest, we may consider this the perfect ‘mug’ for both day and night 👀  Whatever you are putting in the Stemless Tumbler, you can rest assured that it will stay secure and at the right temperature. It’s convenience in a cup.




🌟  FEATURED SWAG PICK

Leak Proof Tumbler

WHAT WE LIKE ABOUT IT:

For everyone who gets a bit clumsy when bleary-eyed. The Leak Proof Tumbler ensures your friends won’t be teasing you about the Great Coffee Spill of 2020 when you look back on the year. And with 18 oz, you won’t have to make too many refill trips. Ta da, accident proof!




🌟  FEATURED SWAG PICK

The Enamel Cup  

WHAT WE LIKE ABOUT IT:

If you like your mugs on the bigger side, at 13 oz. the Enamel Cup fits an entire extra oz compared to most other cups. Not to be underestimated when it’s crunch time. We’re also big fans of the subtle speckles and glossy finish. The stainless steel rim is the finishing touch for a nice-looking mug that does its job perfectly well.




🌟  FEATURED SWAG PICK

The Hudson Tumbler

WHAT WE LIKE ABOUT IT:

The Hudson Tumbler is a double-walled stainless steel option that is as durable as it is stylish. The clean and minimal lines of this travel tumbler put the emphasis instead on your brand, and with a push-on lid and a thumb tab, everyone will love how easy this tumbler makes their life.




🌟  FEATURED SWAG PICK

Asobu Campfire Mug

WHAT WE LIKE ABOUT IT:

Speaking of design, we love the Asobu Campfire Mug for its unique carabiner clip handle. One of the ways to win at swag is to get specific and consider the people you are gifting to - and this is the perfect mug for souls who love camping, hiking, mountaineering, and any other activity that takes them into the wild. 

The built in, heavy duty carabiner clip can easily attach to your back pack whether you are off to work or school, etc. Made of double wall stainless steel. It has a 12 ounce/350 ml capacity and is 100% BPA free.




🌟  FEATURED SWAG PICK

Asobu Ultimate Coffee Mug

WHAT WE LIKE ABOUT IT:

The ultimate coffee mug. The Asobu Ultimate Coffee Mug is, of course, vacuum insulated to your coffee hot (when used with the adjustable spill proof lid) but that’s just the start. The ceramic inner coating of the mug means no more icky metal tastes ruining the quality of your coffee. Plus it’s easy to clean.

We recommend you handwash this mug - it’s worth the extra care. Ideal for home and office use and 100% BPA free. And finally the ergonomic rounded handle makes it easy and safe to grip and carry.




🌟  FEATURED SWAG PICK

Fellow Carter Everywhere Mug 12 oz

WHAT WE LIKE ABOUT IT:

For the design nerds and minimalists in your team. The Fellow Carter Everywhere Mug is a tribute to blending style and quality. While some travel tumblers decided to sacrifice the coffee drinking experience, the Fellow Carter Everywhere Mug resolves to prioritize durability, heat retention, and a quality drinking experience and do it well.

Designed to amplify the senses and engineered to fit the most popular manual brewing devices, you can now enjoy coffee at its fullest, everywhere. In short, this travel mug is worthy of the coffee it carries. 




🌟  FEATURED SWAG PICK

Rover Copper Vacuum Insulated Camp Mug

WHAT WE LIKE ABOUT IT:

A throwback to simpler times. Warm up the campfire ambiance while drinking your tea or coffee with this classic camp cup. The 14oz. Rover Copper Vacuum Insulated Camp Mug features a durable, double-wall stainless steel vacuum construction with copper insulation, which allows your beverage to stay cold for 24 hours and hot for at least 6 hours. The construction also prevents condensation on the outside of the piece. On-trend, durable powder coating.
