Take the freakin sticker off!!!!...

[jason-23]

I'll keep this as short as possible. I ordered blank garments from my supplier, did my job to them, put them back in the same box, i hand delivered said box to the front business door of my client early Monday morning before they opened, my clients employee didn't know about he shirt order and when the ups guy came for the day she refused the delivery (my box) and the ups guy shipped them back to the freaking sticker address which was my supplier. So remove the freaking shipping stickers from the. I'd if you plan on using the same box.....just sayin!
I know quit being cheap and get your own boxes....

We heat up the UPS/FedEx/etc. sticker slightly (with a hair dryer) and they come right off.  If they've been rediculously taped over or something like that, we put OUR UPS lable on top, so the old one can't be seen.

We rebox in custom new boxes and recycle the old.  I also don't pull labels off contract work.  Call it lazy, I HATE peeling labels.

The easiest thing to do though is to score the box all the way around the label and take off the first layer of cardboard.

the catcher has to peel the labels off each box. we reuse because of so much contract work.

We pull all labels not just to stop UPS confusion but to hide who our distributor is.

We recently found out that a woman that has been coordinating all the elementary school projects with us for years discovered NES and now buys the tee's direct from them. How she found them who knows but she did not get the great new pricing she thought she was going to get from us.

Very important to remove all stickers. 
1. looks trashy
2. why do you want everybody, (competition included) knowing what you are doing?
3. Do you want everybody to know where you are buying from?

Local and affordable.

I use cut-rate box company.  I get them printed for the cost of blank ones.  I jsut have to order a ton of them at a time.

It's cheaper than me printing them.

When I had my shop in the house I Would remove all labels, then print my logo on both sides of the box, pack the neatly folded printed tees, then deliver.

My thought was the customer was never going to see my shop so this was my only opportunity to impress the customer with my "professional shop".

I would like to get back into printing, or having printed, my boxes.

Amazing that the trend today is to "go paperless" in fact, the manual you need to figure out why your computer just shut down after installing a new device is only available on-line.
Insurance companies, health plans, you name it, all want us to go paperless and save the earth (and them some money)

Yet, to look professional, we now need two boxes for every 72 shirts. We need to dump (or recycle) the one that the shirts came in, and replace it with ours, which will also, likely, eventually get dumped or recycled at some point.

Bummer
