Hi,

I want to know how I can create custom shipping labels for my orders. I will deliver all my orders locally myself without using any courier service, but still want to have the customer info and a barcode on the label.

I appreciate your help!

Hi @soroushysf,

I might be able to help with this, what information would you like to be stored in the barcode? The invoice number maybe?

Thanks,

Charlie

Thanks, Charlie!

I want to verify on the delivery app that the correct order is being delivered. So, it could be the order number at least plus the delivery info.

Hi @soroushysf 

Ah sorry I didn't realize you wanted this for the Delivery App, unfortunately, I don't have experience with this app. 

I hope there is a solution soon.

Hey @Charlie506, from your response, you might be able to help me out.

I want to be able to print shipping labels for free just so that i can deliver manually without any courier. 

The barcode could be the invoice number

Hi,

I had a long chat with Shopify Customer Service about exact same issue. Apparently, they have not implemented this feature yet. That means, if you choose ship, you are able to print a shipping label. But if you choose LOCAL DELIVERY or Pick Up, there is no built-in feature to print a label.

I hope Shopify address this issue very soon.

There is a work around which is painful and tricky. You can always print a label (for example with UPS or USPS), then VOID the label. That supposedly cancel the shipping label because you have not used it, but you can still stick it to your package! As I said not a good solution!

I use local delivery to offer a discounted courier rate as I need to use postcodes to separate rates which is only available in local delivery in AU. I can purchase shipping labels from the order list but not within the order. It would be good to have shipping labels both purchase and for own delivery available. I use local truck drivers for items not taken by couriers such as large cabinets.

The best method I have found is to convert my packing slips to 4x6 labels. Here's the article that explains how to do it

I reformatted my packing slip on shopify to print 4x6 and use it as my
local delivery label.
