Attaching Uni Baggage Labels

Posted in Excess Baggage, Student Baggage, Tips on August 6th, 2010

This is a quick step by step guide on how to attach the Uni Baggage labels.

Step 1

Print off label from the “My Orders” section of Uni Baggage.

Labels for UK order will be available straight away. For some international shipments the labels may only be available 4-5 days before the collection date.

Then cut out the labels. (easy peasy!)

Step 2

Use a strong box or suitcase to transport you items. Please do not use plastic storage boxes, as they are very brittle.

Attaching a label to a box

Just attach the labels as you would for any parcel. Please use the two labels and attach one to each side of the parcel as shown. Use packaging tape or Sellotape.

 

 

 

Attaching a label to a suitcase

Now this is a little more complicated! Please do not attach you labels with tape alone, as your labels are likely to fall off and could result in your item being delayed.

Method 1: Attach your labels with tape and then cover your bag with cling film. Just attach a label to each side of your bag and then wrap your bag in cling film, wrap the film around twice. This will stop the labels falling off and protect your suitcase while in transit.

 

Method 2: Insert your labels into poly pockets, tape closed and tie them onto your suitcase with string. Then tape the poly pockets to your suitcase. Make sure the pockets are tied on.

 

 

Now your items are ready for collection!

We also recommend putting another label inside the suitcase or box just encase the labels come off.

    Just like to say that the bar codes have been updated on the labels so they can be scanned on all Parcel Force scanners. So it should not matter what printer or computer you use to print labels.
