Packing Labels for moving: Free Printable for Boxes
Olympia offers free printable moving box labels to its clients, or anyone moving. These labels will brighten your boxes, and may motivate you to keep packing! We’ve designed unique, color-coded labels for every room in your home to help the movers easily differentiate the boxes during delivery. Write descriptions of each box’s contents to aid in locating specific items while unpacking. Included are “fragile” stickers to warn movers of breakable contents like glass, dishes, figurines, and pictures. We also created kids’ moving box labels to help little ones find their toys in the new home. All labels can be printed on standard blank Avery or shipping labels using a laser printer. These boxes are meant to used on boxes, as they will be difficult to remove on furniture. You can also purchase pre-printed moving box labels from us, along with other packing materials.

FAQ’S
Use a permanent marker to label multiple sides of each box with the room name and a brief description of the contents (e.g., “Kitchen – Pots & Pans”). Mark fragile items and note any special handling instructions like “Heavy” or “This Side Up.” For easier sorting, consider color-coding by room or numbering boxes and keeping a list for reference. Proper labeling helps movers place boxes in the right rooms, making unpacking smoother.
Labels should go on at least one side and the top of the box. Labeling the side makes it easier to identify boxes when they’re stacked, while a top label helps when boxes are viewed from above. For best results, mark multiple sides so movers can quickly see where each box belongs.
Label each box with the room name and a brief description of the contents (e.g., “Bedroom – Winter Clothes”). Mark fragile items clearly and add handling instructions like “Heavy” or “This Side Up.” For easy organization, consider color-coding by room or numbering boxes and keeping a list for reference. Label multiple sides so movers can quickly identify each box, even when stacked.
Label cargo boxes on multiple sides with key details like destination, contents, and handling instructions (e.g., “Fragile,” “This Side Up,” “Heavy”). If shipping, include tracking numbers, recipient information, and any required barcodes. Use waterproof markers or printed labels for durability, and secure labels with clear tape to prevent damage.
