In a Nutshell
A core stock of cartons, labels, tape, stretch film, and void fill in the dispatch area prevents the need to search for or order shipping materials individually each time, significantly reducing process costs.
Many warehouse areas are directly connected to shipping. If cartons, labels, document pouches, tape, stretch film, and strapping are readily available, shipments can be prepared faster, and bottlenecks avoided.
Typical Items in the Dispatch Area
Cartons and shipping bags
Shipping labels and address labels
Document pouches and delivery note pouches
Tape, packing tape, and dispensers

Strapping and accessories
