The issue of labeling boxes is truly essential. Imagine being a mail carrier tasked with delivering mail, but the envelopes either lack an address or feature vague symbols or numbers instead. Naturally, you’d prefer the box to have the recipient’s name, address, and the sender’s address clearly written.
Not long ago, the idea of such labels on boxes seemed laughable and futuristic. It was believed that the moving industry lacked budgets to provide individual labels for specific jobs.
We’re here to let you know that things have changed. New cloud-based technology enabled Voxme to create the portal bingo.voxme.com, which allows you to print labels using a Zebra label printer for just $300 a year. The portal lets you input shipment details, job numbers, and display them on the label. Additionally, each label includes a unique barcode, and each job offers an option to use the Delivery Bingo app to verify shipment completeness by scanning barcodes from the labels.
The cost per job is $3 with no upfront commitments. The annual subscription includes printing setup from the portal without limits on the number of printers or items per job. There’s also an option to add your company’s logo to the label.
Boxes constitute a significant portion of all transported items. There are boxes provided to clients in advance and those used for packing if the service includes packaging. Boxes can be categorized by size and wall thickness depending on their purpose:
Of course, it’s most convenient to pack in new, clean boxes of the appropriate size. However, in practice, packing often involves old, dusty banana boxes or previously used ones sourced from friends or neighbors.
Here, the advantage of labels becomes evident — they adhere well even to dusty cardboard, standing out among old markings and stickers. As a bonus, the label includes your company’s logo. Labels and boxes are passed along for reuse, ensuring your moving company gets noticed rather than the diaper brand whose box was found in a dumpster and used during the move.
Boxes in transit are labeled with pre-printed individual labels — this is the ideal scenario. In practice, box numbers are often written with markers, using tags or homemade stickers.
It’s worth emphasizing that saving on labeling and organizing shipment control is not advisable. Modern technology has made this process more accessible and efficient.
For $300 a year, you can subscribe to the bingo.voxme.com portal, which connects to a Zebra printer at no extra cost and provides custom label designs with your company logo. Using other forms of labeling in this case is impractical, unprofessional, and financially detrimental in case of errors or losses.
