Where do I place the label on a pallet?
There are different label placements depending on the label type. For pallet (or skid) labels, they must be applied to two sides of each skid and include the ship‐to details (Sur La Table name, warehouse address, PO number, Shipping Pro number and warehouse), total carton count, pallet number (for example, Skid 1 of 12) and a clearly identifiable pack list on the lead pallet. For outer (or “master”) cartons, the label must be placed on the lower right-hand corner of the longest natural side – specifically 1.25 inches from the bottom and 1.25 inches from the side – with the label facing outward so it is viewable on the pallet/skid. For inner cartons, if it’s a poly bag the label is placed on the front lower right-hand corner, and for cartons or boxes the label is placed in the lower right-hand corner.
