Uber Bags

Uber bags are the twisted handle kraft paper carry bags that restaurants and takeaway venues and cafes and coffee shops use for Uber Eats, DoorDash, Menulog and Deliveroo orders. They hold hot containers, drinks and sides in one trip, and the twisted paper handles stay intact when a driver carries two or three orders at once.

QIS Packaging stocks the three sizes most food venues order, in brown kraft and white, in small packs for a single site and bulk cartons for high volume kitchens.

Why food venues choose these bags

• Twisted paper handles that carry the weight of stacked containers
• Food grade kraft paper with a flat base so containers sit level and do not tip
• Recyclable and accepted in kerbside paper recycling
• Brown kraft or white, so you can add branded stickers or a printed label
• Packs of 20 and 50 for a single venue, cartons of 100 and 250 for high volume kitchens

Complete the delivery order

Most venues pair these bags with the rest of their front of house packaging. Browse takeaway containers to suit each meal size, paper napkins for cutlery packs, and brown paper grocery bags if you need a flat bottom SOS bag without handles for counter service. Our full food service packaging range covers the rest.

Branded Uber bags

Printing your logo on the bag turns every delivery into repeat exposure, since the bag sits on the customer's table long after the driver leaves. See our custom printed packaging options, or request a free printed sample before you commit to a run.

Uber bag FAQs

What is an Uber bag?

An Uber bag is the common Australian trade name for a twisted handle kraft paper carry bag used to pack food delivery orders. The name stuck because these are the bags most venues reach for when packing an Uber Eats order, but they suit every platform, including DoorDash, Menulog and Deliveroo, as well as ordinary counter takeaway.

Is this the same as the insulated Uber delivery backpack?

No. The insulated backpack is the thermal bag a driver buys for themselves to keep orders hot in transit. The Uber bags on this page are the single use paper carry bags a venue buys in bulk to pack each order at the counter. If you run a kitchen or cafe, this page is the one you want.

What size Uber bag do I need?

Small at 280 x 280 mm suits a single meal or a coffee run. Medium at 320 x 330 mm is the size most venues order, and holds two to three containers. Large at 350 x 320 mm suits family orders and catering, or mains plus drinks. If you are unsure, buy a small pack of the medium first and check it against your usual container, then move to cartons once you have confirmed the fit.

Should I choose brown or white?

Brown kraft is the standard and the lower cost option, and it is what most takeaway venues use. White suits venues with a cleaner brand look, and it shows printed logos and stickers more clearly. Both are the same paper weight and construction, so the choice is presentation rather than strength.

Are Uber bags recyclable?

Yes. These are plain kraft paper with paper twist handles and no plastic lamination, so they are accepted in standard kerbside paper recycling across Australia.

Can I get Uber bags printed with my logo?

Yes. Printed bags are one of the few marketing formats a customer keeps on the table through the whole meal. See our custom printed packaging range, or order a free printed sample first.

How many should I order?

Packs of 20 and 50 suit a single venue testing a size or covering a quiet period. Cartons of 100 and 250 are the better value per bag and suit venues running steady delivery volume. Bags store flat, so ordering a carton does not take much shelf space.
