Abstract:
A shipping label is provided for use by a first party to prepare a shipping container for delivery to a second party, and thereafter by the second party to return the shipping container to the first party. The shipping label includes a return label, the back surface of which is attachable to the shipping container. The address of the first party is printed on the front surface of the return label. The shipping label also includes an initial address label, the back surface of which is releasably secured to the front surface of the return label, thereby at least partially covering the return label. The address of the second party is imprinted on the front surface of the initial address label. The shipping label is affixed to the shipping container by the first party to facilitate delivery of the shipping container to the address of the second party indicated on the initial address label. The second party can, after receiving the shipping container, peel off the initial address label from the return label, thereby exposing the return label, which remains affixed to the shipping container to facilitate delivery of the shipping container to the first party.
