Label Broker & Label Delivery Service

Print Shipping Labels Without a Printer Do you need to print a shipping label, but don't have a printer? USPS gives you several options: USPS Label Broker® Service: Bring your Label Broker ID (a QR Code®1) to a Post Office™ location that has Label Broker at the counter or a Label Broker self-service kiosk and get it printed, free! USPS Label Delivery Service: For a fee, get a shipping label delivered directly to you. Someone Sent You a Label Broker ID (a QR Code) You're returning something to a store or sending something to a customer through an ecommerce platform, and they sent you an email or text with a Label Broker ID (a QR Code). Here’s what you do next to create your shipping label: You DO Have a Printer You got an email or text with a Label Broker ID (a QR Code), and you can print on your own printer. Go to the Label Broker tool. Type in the 8-10 character Label Broker ID (under the QR Code) and your ZIP Code™, then hit the "Download Label" button. You'll download your prepaid shipping label (a PDF file). Print that label. Pack and seal your package, and tape the shipping label to it. Drop off your ready-to-ship package at a Post Office location (or schedule a free package pickup). Print Your Own Label You DON'T Have a Printer You got an email or text with a Label Broker ID (a QR Code), and you want USPS to print the shipping label for you. Save the Label Broker ID on your phone. Pack and seal your package. Take your ready-to-ship package and the Label Broker ID to a USPS location that supports Label Broker. Go to the counter, give your package to the Retail Associate, and scan the Label Broker ID (QR Code) on your phone. They'll do the rest! (Or, if the location has a Label Broker self-service kiosk, you can do it yourself. Learn more.) Have more questions about Label Broker? See the Label Broker FAQ article. Find a Label Broker Location You're Sending a Package Using Click-N-Ship & You Want to Print a Label at the Post Office You’re using Click-N-Ship® to make and pay for a shipping label for your package, but don’t have your own printer. No problem, you can print your shipping label at a Post Office location. Pay for your postage using Click-N-Ship. When prompted, choose the option to "Print later at Post Office." USPS will send you an email with a Label Broker ID (QR Code followed by 8-10 characters). Save this email on your phone. Pack and seal your package. Take your ready-to-ship package and your Label Broker ID to a USPS location that supports Label Broker (suggested locations are listed in the email). Go to the counter, give your package to the Retail Associate, and show them the Label Broker QR Code on your phone. They'll do the rest! Or, for locations with a Label Broker self-service kiosk, you can skip the line, get your label, and drop off your package. Learn more. Create a Label Save Time: Print Labels at Self-Service Kiosks Self-service kiosks are automated stations you can use for many USPS tasks, including printing prepaid shipping labels with Label Broker. Create and pay for a shipping label using Click-N-Ship. Choose the option to "Print later at Post Office." USPS will send you an email with a Label Broker ID (a QR Code). Save this email on your phone. (Or, if you're getting a Label Broker ID from a store or ecommerce platform, they'll email or text it to you.) Find a USPS location with a Label Broker self-service kiosk, and take your ready-to-ship package and your Label Broker ID to the kiosk. Follow the on-screen instructions to "Scan QR Code for Label" (or enter the 8-10 character Label Broker ID) when asked. After the shipping label prints, stick it to your package. Drop off your package at the drop-off area or receptacle. If you're not sure where, ask a Retail Associate. Find a Label Broker Self-Service Kiosk USPS Label Delivery Service When you use Click-N-Ship to create shipping labels online, you can add Label Delivery Service, where USPS will print and deliver you the physical labels for an additional $1.65 fee (per label). Create a shipping label using Click-N-Ship. Go to "Select Extra Services" and choose "Label Delivery—Outbound." After you complete and pay for your label, your USPS letter carrier will deliver the printed label to your address. Create a Label For Businesses Label Broker Just like regular customers, small businesses can bring Label Broker IDs and their sealed and ready-to-ship packages to Post Office locations to print and send. Plus, if you're a business interested in offering Label Broker to your customers (so they can easily send you returns), learn more about how you can sign up. Learn More Label Delivery Service If you're using Click-N-Ship with a business account, not only can you request Label Delivery service for your outbound label (for a fee, USPS will send you the label for the package going to your customer); for an additional fee, we will send you a prepaid return label that your customer can use for painless returns. (You only get charged for the return postage if your customer uses the label.) Ship Now 1. QR Code® is a registered trademark of Denso Wave Incorporated. Back ^

USPS Package Intercept

USPS Package Intercept For a fee, USPS Package Intercept® service lets the sender (or authorized representative) stop delivery or redirect a package, letter, or flat that is not out for delivery or already delivered. Most domestic mailings with a tracking or extra services barcode are eligible for Package Intercept. Retail Senders: You can redirect a shipment back to your address or to a Post Office™ location as Hold For Pickup. You can only request a Package Intercept online with a USPS.com account. Commercial Senders: You can redirect a shipment back to your address, to a new delivery address, or to a Post Office location as Hold For Pickup via Business Customer Gateway. How It Works 1. Verify that your shipment is eligible for Package Intercept. 2. If eligible, sign in to or create a USPS.com account to submit your request. 3. Use Retail Package Intercept to request that USPS redirect the shipment back to the original sender (you), hold it at the destination Post Office location, or hold it at a new Post Office location. 4. After submitting your request, you’ll be provided an estimated total (intercept fee plus estimated postage, if applicable). We will then attempt to intercept and redirect the shipment. 5. If the shipment is intercepted, your credit card will be charged the $19.45 Package Intercept fee plus any applicable postage. If the actual postage is greater than estimated, any additional postage will be charged accordingly. 6. Your shipment will be redirected to the location you requested. Intercept a Retail Package Paying for Package Intercept Intercepted items will be redirected as the service it was originally sent with (Priority Mail Express®, Priority Mail®, USPS Ground Advantage®, or First-Class Mail®). You must pay the applicable postage. Customers will not be charged if the shipment was not intercepted. If successfully intercepted, the non-refundable Package Intercept fee is applied to each intercept request. Package Intercept Price Information Retail and commercial customers can also purchase additional services for the intercepted package, like Adult Signature Required, Adult Signature Restricted Delivery, Signature Confirmation™, and insurance. Insurance & Extra Services Determining Eligibility USPS Package Intercept is not a guaranteed service and certain conditions apply. What Is Eligible * Domestic USPS mail services with a USPS Tracking® or extra services barcode * Check Your Barcode Number * Packages whose total length and girth length is not larger than 130 inches * Measuring Package Girth What Is Not Eligible * USPS Marketing Mail® products and periodicals * Items addressed to a Commercial Mailing Receiving Agency * Items redirected to a PO Box™ * Nonmailable items, items with surface-only transportation markings, such as Label 127, Surface Mail Only, or items bearing other hazardous materials markings, such as Consumer Commodity ORM-D * Information on Hazardous Materials
