- Who doesn't love free supplies? Especially things that save you extra time and extra money down the road? In this video I'm breaking down exactly how to get a free thermal printer (plus lots of other free shipping supplies) for your ecommerce businesses. Great money saving hack for sellers on Amazon, Ebay, Poshmark, Mercari, Walmart, etc... You don't ever have to pay for shipping labels again, and you might not even have to pay for your printer!!! We had this video planned a few weeks ago, but were trying to wait to actually physically get our printers (We personally ordered it from both UPS and fedex) So far the downside is the SHIPPING IS SO SLOW! So we decided to just go ahead with this video anyways. We'll update it once we actually get our printers and can test them out ourselves :)
--- The first section of this video will talk about getting free boxes and shipping labels from USPS and UPS.
--- The second section of this video goes over how to get a free (or super cheap) Zebra printer from UPS
-- The third section is how to get your free printer from Fedex.
I've read and watched close to 10 different blogs and articles about this and most of them have old outdated information or they don't even include everything. We want to make sure we are always giving you guys the most up to date info, so I tried this all myself! The info I'm giving you is the correct info for today (Sep, 2020). We've confirmed this with our own store managers and are super excited to be bringing you guys this little money saving hack!

@Noe Morgan hey teach me pls
First to start all the supplies from USPS are free except stamps
Second all the supplies from FEDEX and UPS are free with an account
Third the printer from UPS is only 12usd for the month and they also supply free envelopes and labels.
I have a business account and all I did was to call them up, and say I would like to rent a thermal printer, they ask for my account details and I gave them and they said ok I can get a printer and ask what address I want the printer shipped to.
Is this for US only? I'm Canadian.

To open an account with usps are you choosing personal account or business account in order to get boxes for free ? Thank you 🙏🏽
Awesome! Thank you so much for all the info and helpful tips!! Love all the videos!
Thank you always putting incredibly helpful content together!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for all the great info as usual. I'm going to set up my UPS account to get some of those free labels.
Glad to help
So glad you made this video. I think it will help so many new sellers.
I can't believe I have been buying all of my shipping labels. Thank you for this!!
Thanks so much Nathan, you rock. I always appreciate all of your help and advice. You’re a straight shooter and tell it like it is. I’m so glad I found the hustle buddies group 👍🏻😀🙌🙏
Great info! I’ll order my shipping labels from them for now on. Thanks for sharing.
Good information as always! I do love my Rollo
Thanks for the info! I just got a Rollo so trying to figure that out. I'm not sure my settings are right because my scanner was having an issue scanning some of my fnsku's into IL.
Great thanks for the information! Always a ton of info to get from this channel!
You bet?
Thanks for all the info. Helpful as usual!
Can you use the free labels in the rollo? I’m in the process of buying a rollo to make ingredient labels and shipping labels with the rollo. How would the rollo know if I’m using the labels for ingredient list?
Great info as always! Thanks Nathan
This is awesome! Cant wait to try.
As usual GREAT INFO ! Thanks for sharing !
Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for the useful tutorial. I have a question. Does this Thermal printer work for Shopify as well?. Thanks again
Awesome video. Will be trying out tomorrow!
Free is always good! Thanks for the information! Crossing my fingers it will work for me.
Best of luck!
Hey 10 months late but did it work?
Thank you for the helpful info. Ordering supplies now.
Always grateful for your help. You guys are the best team ever!!!! You are our inspiration!!!
Our pleasure!
Does the thermal roll have the word UPS on it? I know the 8.5 sheets have UPS name(small lettering) at the bottom of each sheet.
Awesome information!! Ordered my free labels from ups!
Great info. Thank you so much, beginner here and that helps a lot.
Thank you. Will try definitely today!
Excellent information Nate!
Thanks again , great stuff!
That is super great info for beginners. I love our Rollo printer though!!
Video completed! Thanks Nathan
Thanks Nate! You have the best tips
I used to work for a logistic company that requires tons and tons of 4x6 labels, for UPS they do send out LP2844, but for FedEx, they usually send out ZP500 or ZP505; however, if your volume is big enough and you speaking with the right account manager, they will send out ZM400 or something similar (it happens with one of the other eCommerce company that I used to work for). UPS and FedEx does track your shipping volume when ordering label supplies, but for UPS it's usually easier to go around, if the website does not allow you to place an order, just call their customer service, say you want to place an order for supply, they will attempt to place the order for you, which will be getting the same result, when the rep tells you that all you need to do is say that I am going to have a large shipment coming in, and expected to have increase shipping volume, they will put you on hold and find a manager, which will usually be able to place the order for you after the short brief.
One tips.....ZP500 is generally better than LP2844 because I was able to print both fedex and ups label with ZP500/505/550 but it does not really work well with LP2844, I was able to use that trick to cut the printer count per desk from 2 to 1, I was also able to use the ZP500 to print carton lebel on 4x6 as well. and you can definitely use fanfold label on both of the printers, just stick it thu the hole from the back and it will pass thu. I sometimes use that to print carton labels with ZP500 on UPS label.
One last trick....you can use fedex/usps box for UPS shipment, or UPS/USPS box for fedex shipment, or even UPS/fedex box for USPS shipment. Many people think that the other party won't accept because they have competitor's logo on it, but the truth is...They don't care.
Thank You so much for that very detailed information. I myself and I know others greatly appreciate it.
Yea I just set my account up with ups yesterday and called them and actually received my printer today with labels and I'm ecstatic!!! 3$/wk!! They sent out the zebra zp450. From a diff video .. I believe I have to get a USB type c converter for my USB cord to connect but it's only 10$ and well worth it!
@@ATLTee thank you, just hope it helps people because things are kind of expensive nowadays
@@lizzwilliams6022 all of these printers usually come with USB-A cable, so if your computer only have Type-C, you will need to purchase a convertor. The pro for zp450 is that it's actually function similarly with zp 500 and zp550, so you do have a better version than the other one. Also if your current printer is not working don't hassitste to call us, they will send you replacement unit with ease.
Thank you so much for the info. Have you done any updates on this for 2021?
Great info Nate!
Is USPS boxes and labels are also valid to the post office or?
Great info! Thanks so much!
Very informative and helpful!
Can you get the free labels to use for UPS, USPS, and others?
Great information - thanks for the options
Thanks for all the great information!
is there a way to get the FNSKU labels on any of these platforms for free
This is genius! Thanks for the tips!
Great Video. We use lots of labels... This will save us some overhead fees... Thanks Mr. HB!
Thanks again for the helpful information!
Great info! Thanks for sharing!
Just a tip, UPS also gives free boxes and other packing supplies once you register for a business account.
I was able to get free supplies from UPS! They didn't have any free boxes, but I got lots of labels for free!
BIG THANK YOU! THIS IS AWESOME!!!
But what ios's are they compatible with? I am looking for a thermal to sync to my Android!
Thanks so much i was able to get one ordered!
I was actually able to rent one using their live chat feature. They were firm on the $3/week coat though.
Do u rent it forever or they eventually give it to u?
Don't do it through live chat. Speaking to them in person puts some pressure on them to give it to you for free if you're convincing enough. Over chat they can stick to the script and charge everyone.
i ship through paypal and i got the zp450 it is printing the labels sideways!!! I changed the settings in the shipping in paypal and printer settings and nothing helps!
Thanks for all the help!
Thank you so much for this content Nathan and Alysha! I’ve been learning a lot about Amazon and business in general with your Facebook group and all of your videos! I love how sincere and practical you guys are! Your journey has definitely inspired a lot of people to start their own businesses!
Very informative video thank you guys! I Intend to begin doing Amazon FBA Soon as I have the minimal investment money to do so. Could you please clarify ? > about the direct thermal labels from UPS > So are these labels free ONLY ONCE AFTER YOU make a UPS Business account? or are they free regardless? I Do see that there is a monthly recurring subscription fee for signing up with a UPS Business acct. Thank you! also I Have watched a very likely more than 4 hours of your guys videos lol on starting Amazon FBA and I am meticulously trying to understand this all thank you so much! :)
Amazing work love this
Thank you for the great tips!
Great tips thanks man!
Do you think it’d be an issue to run this along with the rollo? Wondering if this could be beneficial vs. switch labels during the workflow
I use both a Rollo and Zebra LP2844-it’s nice to not have to switch back and forth. The Rollo is so much better, though.
Thank you !
Very informative !!
Great video, I will try today!
Can you use the ups printer and print usps?
Thank you for the information!
This is awesome!
I just called UPS and they literally have a recorded message that the info on social media about the printers being free is inaccurate and that the cost of rental is $3 a week! I guess they finally caught on. Hahaha!
Mid video I was like 🤔 let me check the comments lol and I only went 🤔 because the video is 7 months old
Thanks for the great information!
Thanks for the free info!
Subscribed and great video!!
thanks for the info, I'll see if this applies in Canada too :)
Thanks for the advice!
Thanks for the tips to get free supplies!
Can you take UPS boxes for free but use Royal mail shipping service?
The LP2844 can take labels from like 1.2 inches up to a little over 4 inches. Messured on my LP's :)
Thank you. great stuff!
I called UPS Canada today since I am in Canada and got the thermal printer for free. I asked her how much would be rental charge and she said it is free!
May I ask if you opened the business account during the call or you opened an account online and just called to ask for renting the printer?
How come?
So much info thank you 🙏🏼
Thank you for the info!
Again you guys rock! I’ll let you know how it goes.
Can I use it with usps labels??
Awesome! Knew about the labels but not a thermal printer.
Thanks so much Nathan!
Great info. I’ll try it next week after I get moved
Very useful info!
Does anyone know if this possible in the uk?
I called UPS today and the printer is on the way. Thank you (yet again) for such great information!
NICE! Are they charging you the $3 per week?
@@HustleBuddiesOfficial They are. I'm just starting out and doing 1-2 smallish shipments a week. BUT, I was told to call back when I'm doing more and they will see what they can do. In any case, $3/week isn't bad in my opinion.
@@samanthamoore7478 Did they actually charge you? I've heard some ppl say ups just sent it and never charged them
@@angelgirl02368 I was told that I would be charged, but I have not yet been charged.
@@syounker have you been charged yet
Exciting!
Does the ups thermal rolls work with any thermal printer? Or do you need specific ones?
As long as you can feed it into the printer it works. Although Dymo usually gives people issues because of the way that it feeds. Their labels have small holes on them that tells the printer where the label starts and where it ends and the UPS labels don't have them so it may give you issues. But Rollo seems to do great with these.
Great video. Just wanted to to let you know that UPS may not send out the Zebra. They are also sending the Bixolon 770III. It still works great though.
Interesting. It must be a regional thing that changes what they have on hand.
can i do this if i am canadian ?
Thank you for sharing!
