Custom Shipping Labels Compostable Blank 4X6 Address Stickers

The shipping label is an indispensable tool in logistics and e-commerce shipping, which is affixed to the parcel and contains key information such as the detailed consignee and shipping address, barcode or QR code, parcel weight, dimensions and logistics number. This information helps courier companies to accurately track the status of parcels throughout the shipping process, optimise delivery routes and ensure that parcels reach their recipients quickly and without error. In addition, custom shipping labels can also indicate special handling requirements, such as fragile or expedited delivery, providing a guarantee of safe and timely delivery of parcels, thereby greatly enhancing logistics efficiency and reducing the risk of error.
