As for this holiday season, Joe Stefani, President of the Desert Cactus, told NBC News that the e-commerce com- pany is experiencing difficulty obtaining the correct sizes of boxes, prompting employees to send out precariously packaged shipments for lack of other options. “The packaging is too expensive right now, or we can’t get hold of it,” Stefani said.
