Questions about moving box labels

Do I have to buy labels?

No. You print them at home: on standard label sheets, or on plain paper and tape. Each label has the room’s colour, the box number and its own code.

Why not just write on the box?

Do both. A marker is right for the room name, which movers read at a glance. A QR code moving label holds what a marker runs out of room for: every item, whether it is fragile, and a photo of what went in.

Do the movers need an app?

No. Any phone camera opens the box in the browser and shows the room, the box number and whether it is fragile. Packing works the same way: this moving box QR code app runs in the browser, so nobody installs anything.

Who can see what is inside my boxes?

Only you, and the people you share a link with. A movers’ link shows the room, the box number and the warnings; a family & friends link also shows what is inside. Someone else who finds a box sees only that it belongs to a move, plus the note you wrote for finders if you wrote one. Never your address.

Where should the label go?

On two sides, so one always shows in a stack. That is why each box gets two labels with the same code. QR codes for moving boxes get scanned from whichever face shows, and the printed number still matches the list if a label tears.

When can I start labelling?

Now. Make your move, list your boxes and print your first sheet of labels. It is free.
