Free Shipping Label Generator
Make a clean, print-ready shipping label in seconds. Add the two addresses and the package details, get a scannable barcode, and download a PDF at the exact label size. Everything happens in your browser.
Formats and prints a label. It does not buy postage or create a courier tracking number.
The label is built and the PDF is drawn on your own device. Nothing you type is sent to a server or stored anywhere.
Make a label in four steps.
Fill in the form on the left and the label builds on the right as you type. When it looks right, pick a size and download the PDF.
Add the two addresses
Fill in who the parcel is from and who it is going to. The recipient is printed large and bold, the way couriers expect to read it.
Enter the package details
Add the carrier, a tracking or reference number, the weight and, if you like, the dimensions and the package count. The number becomes a scannable barcode.
Pick a label size
Choose the 4 by 6 inch thermal standard, A6, a compact square, or an A4 sheet with a cut line so you can print on plain paper.
Download and print
Download a print-ready PDF at the exact label size, stick it on the parcel, and hand it over. Everything runs in your browser.
What belongs on a shipping label.
A label has one job: get the parcel to the right door and back if it cannot. These are the parts that make that happen, and this tool covers each one.
Ship from (sender)
Your return address, printed small at the top. It is where the parcel comes back to if it cannot be delivered, so it still needs to be complete.
Ship to (recipient)
The delivery address, printed large and bold as the main block. This is what the courier reads first, so the name, street and postcode all matter.
Tracking barcode
A Code 128 barcode of your tracking or reference number, so the parcel can be scanned and matched to an order as it moves.
Weight and dimensions
The weight, and the length, width and height if you add them. Couriers price and sort by these, and they help at the counter.
Carrier and service
Who is carrying the parcel and how fast, such as standard or express. It sets expectations and keeps the right parcels together.
Package count and reference
Which box this is in a multi-box shipment, like 1 of 3, plus your order number so the parcel ties back to the sale.
Labels for every kind of parcel.
From a single order to a full dispatch bench, a clean label with a scannable barcode keeps parcels moving.
Online sellers
Print a clean label for every order you pack, whether you sell on your own store or a marketplace.
Small businesses
Ship from the desk without a thermal printer. Use the A4 sheet option and plain paper.
Warehouses & fulfilment
Consistent labels with a scannable barcode keep picking, packing and dispatch moving.
Returns
Make a return label with the addresses swapped, so a parcel finds its way back to you.
Branch transfers
Move stock between shops or stores with a clear label and a reference number on the box.
Manual courier bookings
Booked a pickup over the phone or counter? Print a tidy label instead of writing on the box.
From one label to your whole dispatch.
Typing a label by hand is fine for the odd parcel. Once orders are coming in all day, you want a system that pulls each order, fills the address, buys the real carrier label, prints it and tracks the parcel to the door. That is the inventory and order management software we build, wired to your stock, your couriers and the way your team already packs.

Common shipping label questions.
It is a free online tool that turns two addresses and your package details into a clean, print-ready shipping label. You fill in the form, watch the label build, pick a size, and download a PDF. It works for a single parcel or for labelling orders one at a time as you pack them.
Yes. It is completely free, there is no sign-up, and there is no watermark on the label. You can create and download as many labels as you need for personal or business use.
Yes. The label is built entirely in your browser and the PDF is generated on your own device. Nothing you type, no names, addresses or order numbers, is ever sent to a server or stored anywhere. When you close the tab, it is gone.
No, and this is the important part. The tool formats and prints a label from the details you enter. It does not buy postage and it does not register a tracking number with any courier. The barcode encodes the number you type, which is great for your own tracking and warehouse scanning, but for a label a courier will collect and scan on their network you buy that from the carrier or a shipping aggregator.
The most common size is 4 by 6 inches, which is what thermal label printers and rolls use. This tool defaults to 4 by 6 and also offers A6, a compact 4 by 4 inch square, and an A4 sheet with a cut line so you can print on an ordinary printer and trim the label out.
Yes. Choose the A4 sheet size and the label is placed on a standard page with a dashed cut line. Print it on plain paper with any inkjet or laser printer, cut along the line, and tape or stick it to the parcel. You do not need a thermal printer.
It is a Code 128 barcode of the tracking or reference number you enter. Code 128 is a common, reliable one dimensional barcode that scanners read easily. If you leave the tracking field blank, the label simply prints without a barcode.
A good label shows the sender address, the recipient address printed large, the weight, a tracking or reference number as a barcode, the carrier and service, and the package count. This tool covers all of those and lets you add dimensions and an order number too.
A shipping label goes on the outside of the parcel and carries the addresses and the barcode the courier needs to move it. A packing slip goes inside and lists what is in the box for the person opening it. They do different jobs, so most parcels carry both.
Yes. The carrier is just a field you fill in, so you can put any courier on the label, from a national post service to a private one. Remember that this label is for your own printing and tracking, not a label bought from that courier.
Yes. Swap the ship-from and ship-to addresses so the parcel is addressed back to you, add your reference, and print it. It is a quick way to include a return label with an order.
This tool makes one label at a time, which is ideal for a founder, a small shop or the odd parcel. Once you are shipping every day, you want software that pulls each order, fills the address, buys the real carrier label and tracks it to the door on its own. That is the kind of inventory and order management software we build at Techliphant.
Good to know: this tool formats and prints a label from the details you enter, with a Code 128 barcode of your own tracking or reference number. It does not buy postage and it does not register a tracking number with any courier. For a label a carrier will collect, scan and track on their network, buy that from the carrier or a shipping aggregator. Always check the address before you ship.
