How to send a parcel without a printer
Most couriers now offer label-less sending. Here is how each one works in 2026.
QR code drop-off (Evri, DPD, Royal Mail)
Book online, get a QR code on your phone, take the parcel to a shop. They scan and print the label for you. No printer needed at home.
Pickup with label printing
Royal Mail Parcel Collect: postie brings a printed label to your door for 60p.
DPD pickup: book online and the driver brings the label.
Dedicated drivers
Wayspost drivers scan a digital booking on their own phone — no label, no QR code, no paperwork at all.
