Below you will find a common list of FAQs that our users have when it comes to packaging guidelines for Groupon.
Can I stack pallets?
The guidelines require that products are stacked and shrink-wrapped on a standard 48" x 40" pallet built to a maximum height of 58". The document does not address stacking pallets on top of each other.
Can you mix multiple SKUs per carton?
Yes, multiple SKUs can be mixed in one carton, but you must adhere to the labeling and UPC limits outlined. For non-apparel, up to 6 UPCs are permitted, while apparel cartons are limited to 1 UPC, and any carton containing multiple UPCs must be marked 'mixed'.
Can you mix multiple SKUs per pallet?
Yes. You can mix SKUs on a pallet provided they come from the same purchase order, but pallets must be arranged with the fewest different styles/colors possible. Purchase orders must not be combined on one pallet.
Can you mix POs in a single carton?
No, purchase orders may not be packaged together in a single carton.
Can you mix POs in a single pallet?
No, each Purchase Order must be shipped separately on its own pallet.
Where do I place the label on a carton?
Each master carton must have its label affixed to the upper right side. For cartons with a single UPC, attach the standard label in that location. For cartons containing multiple UPCs, a bright colored ‘mixed’ label must be placed in the upper right corner. Additionally, if a carton is a partial shipment, it must be marked with a bright colored ‘partial’ label that is clearly visible and facing outward.
