Shipping Labels to the Rescue!

Sunday, February 1st, 2009

Okay, Shipping Labels aren’t exactly super heroes but they do help prevent damage to your package during transit by sending clear messages to all potential handlers.  What is heroic is this protection only costs about .02 cents a label.

Our bright red Shipping Labels are available in rolls of 500 labels and are easy to use.  Simply peel and apply.  We stock the following labels with common messages…

  • Fragile Handle with Care
  • Glass Handle with Care
  • This Side Up
  • Packing List Enclosed
  • Invoice Enclosed
  • Made in the U.S.A.

We recommend placing our labels on multiple sides of your package or envelope to ensure that your shipment will arrive safely.  In addition to handing labels, place instructional labels to help customers find Invoices, Packing Lists, or Bill of Ladings.
