UK Postage Labels

How do I get a postage label?

Getting a postage label in the UK is straightforward. Just follow three easy steps:

  1. Enter your parcel details – destination, size, and weight.

  2. Compare trusted courier services – choose from courier names like Evri, Royal Mail, InPost, and more.

  3. Buy and print your label - pay securely, then either download and print at home or use a drop-off location with printing available.

Many couriers offer label-free collection options or print-in-store services. 

Will the Post Office Print Labels for You? 

Yes, most Post Office branches and drop off locations will print your labels for you, but this depends on which courier you have booked a parcel with. Find out more about no printer couriers or just look out for the ‘No Printer Needed’ flag on services when you get a quote.

Services where you don’t need a printer include Evri, Royal Mail, Yodel, FedEx, DPD, and more.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a printer to use Parcel2Go?

No. Many of our couriers support label-free drop-offs where you can scan a QR code when you drop your parcel off. Services where you don’t need a printer include Evri, Royal Mail, Yodel, FedEx, DPD, and more. Look out for the ‘No Printer Needed’ flag when you get a quote.

Can I track my parcel after buying a label?

Yes, every courier service you buy through Parcel2Go comes with free tracking included. Once your parcel is collected or dropped off, you’ll be able to follow its journey at no extra cost. Just head to your account dashboard to view live updates and delivery progress anytime.

Where can I print labels for shipping?

With Parcel2Go you have three options:

  1. Use a ‘No Printer Required’ service - These allow you to simply drop off your parcel at a designated location where the staff will print the label for you from a QR code or barcode that we will email to you.

  2. Choose a courier collection with label supply - Some couriers can collect your parcel and bring the shipping label with them, ready to attach.

  3. Print your labels at home - choose a service that has a ‘Printer Needed’ flag on and we’ll email you your labels, so you can print at home any time.

To find services that don’t require you to print at home, just open the filter box at the top of the quote results page and select Label Printing Options. It’s the easiest way to find the right service for you.
