Parcel2Go

PrincessPlaty

This is probably a really silly question but i have a parcel to send (not through ebay or anything) and was going to use parcel to go however just before i get to the checkout it says

Please tick this box to confirm you understand you MUST print a label and attach it to the parcel before the courier arrives. Your label links and instructions are shown below

Does it have to be printed or can i just write the address on the box? I dont have a printer or have access to one

Help please

I think you need to print it as it has a bar code on that needs to be scanned.
Did it have an option earlier on to select to say the Driver will bring the labels?

If not does anyone know of a company i can send it through where i dont need to print labels?

I had this issue recently someone suggested I sent it dhl through whsmiths. I used Parcel2go in the end they sent an email to my husband at work and he printed it for me.

If you go to DHL directly they give you an option for the driver to bring the labels - they do work out more expensive then going via Parcel2Go though!

Take it to the Post Office perhaps?

However, parcel to go are very good! I use them for all my heavy ebay items as they work out to be about 50% cheaper than Royal Mail.

not sure if its standard practice but when i order through parcel2go i always print the label but on two occassions the printer has gone wrong and i havent been able to do it, the driver has always had a spare with him for this.

The alternative is to get someone to print it for you a neighbour or a friend maybe
