shipping labels

Parcel address tags

Shipping labels are adhesive tags affixed to packages that display delivery information—recipient address, sender address, tracking barcode, and carrier details.

They're generated when you purchase postage online or at a shipping counter: I printed the shipping label and stuck it on the box.

The label travels with the package, getting scanned at each transit point.
