Below you will find a common list of FAQs that our users have when it comes to packaging guidelines for Gabe's.
Can you mix multiple SKUs per carton?
No, you must pack one style per carton. The only exception is for orders with individual style quantities of less than 20 units, in which case different styles may be combined using a separator or divider.
Can you mix multiple SKUs per pallet?
No. The guidelines require that each carton contains one style only, and different styles should not be combined (except in limited cases for very small orders), so mixing multiple SKUs per pallet is not permitted.
Can you mix POs in a single carton?
No. Each carton must be associated with a single PO. The instructions require that the carton be labeled with one PO number, and different styles (or POs) should not be mixed in one carton.
What are the max dimensions and weights for cartons?
Cartons must not exceed 50 pounds. There is no maximum dimension specified.
What are the min dimensions and weights for cartons?
Carton labels must be no smaller than 3" x 5" and cartons must not exceed 50 pounds each.
Where do I place the label on a carton?
For carton labels, there isn’t a prescribed placement on the carton; instead, a label (minimum 3" x 5") must be affixed with the required information. For unit merchandise the label must include Gabe's P.O. number, Gabe's style number, quantity by carton, and carton number (with an indication that the packing list is inside on the lead carton). For pre‐pack merchandise the label must show Gabe's P.O. number, the vendor style number (or as P.O. requires), Gabe's style number, a breakdown by size, the total number of bundles in the carton, and the carton number (with the lead carton indicating that the packing list is inside). Additionally, on prepackaged toys and sporting goods a separate pressure sensitive stick-on price label must be placed in the upper right‐hand corner of the package without covering any suggested vendor MSRP or safety comments.
