The Best Small Business Shipping Station Essentials
10
items Packing and shipping orders gets a lot easier when everything you actually need is within reach. These are the small business shipping essentials I’d keep stocked for Etsy, eBay, reselling, and other online orders—from thermal labels and shipping sca...
A thermal printer is one of those purchases that feels unnecessary until you've printed, cut out and taped enough regular-paper shipping labels. It prints 4×6 shipping labels without ink or toner and works especially well for anyone regularly shippin...
JADENS Bluetooth Thermal 4x6 Label Printer
Once you switch to a thermal printer, 4×6 labels become one of those supplies you never want to run out of. I prefer fanfold labels because they stack neatly beside the printer and don't require constantly changing rolls. They're a simple consumable,...
9527 Fanfold 4x6 White Thermal Labels 500pcs
Guessing package weight is an easy way to either overpay for postage or end up with a shipping adjustment later. A dedicated postal scale lets you weigh packages before buying the label, and this one measures in small enough increments to be useful f...
Accuteck 8250 High Accuracy Digital Shipping Scale
Cheap packing tape that splits, curls or refuses to stick is one of my least favorite ways to save a few dollars. Good tape matters when you're trusting a box to stay closed through sorting machines, trucks and doorsteps. I also like having several r...
Scotch Heavy Duty Shipping Packing Tape
Medium mailers work until you suddenly need to ship a sweatshirt, jacket or bulky bundle. I like keeping a second, larger poly-mailer size nearby rather than trying to force bigger items into packaging that's obviously too small. They're especially u...
POLYSELLS 100 Pack 9x12 Inch Poly Mailers
Bubble mailers are my middle ground between a plain poly bag and a full cardboard box. They're great for smaller items that need a little protection but don't need several layers of packing material. They're especially handy for accessories, cosmetic...
Fuxury Bubble Mailers 12x15 White 40 Pack
If you ship anything breakable, bubble wrap belongs within arm's reach of the packing table. I like perforated rolls because you can tear off smaller sections without fighting with scissors every time. It's especially useful for glass, ceramics, coll...
Amazon Basics Clear Bubble Wrap for Moving & Storage
Packing paper is much more useful than it looks. I use this type of paper for wrapping items, filling empty space inside boxes and keeping products from shifting around during shipping. Unlike printed newspaper, plain newsprint also keeps ink from ru...
Bryco Goods Newsprint Packing Paper 10lb 320 Sheets
Honeycomb paper is a nice option when you want protective packaging that looks a little more polished than regular bubble wrap. Once stretched, the paper forms a cushioning layer around the item, which makes it especially nice for giftable products, ...
Honeycomb Packing Paper 12in x 200ft Wrap
If you sell online, you spend a surprising amount of time opening cartons, trimming cardboard and breaking down boxes. I prefer keeping more than one box cutter around because the one you need will inevitably disappear under a pile of mailers. A fold...
