Best Package Label Providers?

[Paul McBride]

Hi everyone, starting to increase the number of packages I'm shipping out and am looking for a good label provider solution? Any recommendations on who the biggest/best are? Thanks in advance

Hi,
Could you please provide more details?
What carrier are you using? Is there any specific system you want to integrate with (like an online store platform)?
Thanks

Funnily enough I sell 6" x 4" (150mm x 100mm) direct thermal labels in white (perforated & permanent stick)

These can either be used in a thermal printer or by hand.

Why not buy a cheap desktop label printer (for example the Zebra GK420D), a roll of labels and your away. The printer comes with basic label design software, which if it is purely a shipping label will be really easy!

Get an account with Royal Mail click & drop and they will provide the labels for free.

I use a Zebra thermal label printer with stock continuous labels. Easy to set up and use.

Is this the same type of system that Hermes uses with their parcel print stores?

I'm not sure about Hermes. With Click & Drop we get reduced prices on all domestic and international postage options. All labels etc are produced from the Royal Mail website in PDF format. We then print them out and apply them to the letter/parcel, bag it all up and drop the sealed bag to any post office once a day. I think if you do greater volume they will pick them up.

Royal Mail supply the mail bags, labels, cable ties for the bags etc free.

It all depend on volumes. I'm using ebay RM labels but I've ordered special labels for me that works good with office printer. A5 precuted to A6. If you like to see how it works drop me a line.

get a Zebra printer. Yes they cost more in the beginning but build to last and labels are cheap for them to get.
