Shipping labels

Shipping labels are barcode labels that are put onto packages to identify the order, help shipping carriers deliver the package, and facilitate tracking.

Shipping labels contain shipping information, such as the recipient’s name, address, and contact information, as well as the sender’s information. The label also includes a unique tracking number that can be used to track the package’s progress during the shipping process.

Shipping labels are typically created using shipping software or an online shipping platform, which generates a label that can be printed on a standard thermal or laser printer.

In addition to the shipping information, shipping labels may include other information such as the package’s weight, dimensions, and shipping class, as well as any special handling instructions such as “Fragile” or “This side up.” Some labels also include barcodes that are used for tracking and sorting packages during the shipping process.

Shipping labels are essential for efficiently handling packages during the shipping process, and they help ensure that the package is delivered to the correct address. It’s also important to use the correct shipping label, as using the wrong one can delay the delivery or even cause the package to be lost.
