Handling labels and marking should be clearly visible and positioned on the sides you prefer for forklift entry. Remove or mark out any old labels, tags, and markings. Use descriptive marks or labels to help FedEx identify your shipping requests. Common labels include "This End Up," "Do Not Stack," "Fragile," and "Handle With Care." The shipping label should be placed properly to increase the chance for the preferred orientation. "Do Not Stack" requests cannot always be accommodated, and nonstackable freight incurs a surcharge. FedEx offers tire/crate labels that are designed for tire treads and other difficult applications; they ensure an intact seal during transit and can come off in one piece at the destination. For FedEx Express Freight shipments, tire/crate labels, tie-on tags, and cable ties can be requested from FedEx.
