We've all been there. You are in a hurry to print out your parcel's shipping label and you have run out of printer ink- not to worry!

Here at Interparcel, we offer a whole range of printer-free courier services that offer you flexibility and efficiency when sending your parcels. Whether you prefer to have your parcel collected from your home or office, or perhaps it is more convenient to drop it off during your busy day, we have a printer-free solution that meets your every need.

It doesn't matter if you are sending a small postable-sized item, or even something large and bulky like a flat-pack shed, we have a delivery service for you.

Let's explore the printer-free delivery services below:

Evri ParcelShops

Evri ParcelShops deliver the same great Evri service at the convenience of being able to send, collect and return your parcel all from one Parcelshop- and without needing a printer! Here's how it works…

Evri ParcelShop
  • When you book a printer-free service through Interparcel, we will email you a QR code for your shipping label
  • Next, simply pop into your most convenient Evri ParcelShop and either scan or type your code to print your label
  • Peel and stick your label to the parcel and hand it over to the friendly shop assistant and your parcel will be on its way!


If you prefer to drop the parcel off on your commute or even on the school run, then there are 4,600 ParcelShops and lockers spread around the UK. All the convenience of dropping your parcel off, but without the lengthy queue! To see where your nearest ParcelShop is located, use our handy Evri Drop Off Locator tool!

Please note: It's not possible to amend an existing order to either have a label or be print in store. If you have an existing label but would rather use Print In Store then you will need to place a new booking and select the Print In Store option.

Tuffnells Economy and Express

Tuffnells Delivery

Tuffnells Economy and Express services also offer no-printer postage solutions. If you have a parcel that is too big to take to your nearest ParcelShop- no problem! Tuffnells love big and bulky parcels and will collect them straight from your door without the hassle of replacing the printer ink.

Once you have booked your Tuffnells delivery service, you can sit back and wait for the friendly driver to come and collect your parcel. Don't worry, they will bring the labels with them! Please ensure that you handwrite the address clearly on the box. We suggest a marker pen with clear capital letters.

Parcelforce UK Collection

Parcelforce Collection

Parcelforce UK collection services also offer tracked delivery without the need for a printer. With 54 depots spread evenly across Britain, Parcelforce have the widest network and can cater for every UK customer address.

Like Tuffnells and DX, your local friendly driver will bring the labels with them when they collect from your doorstep. Just make sure you have handwritten the delivery address in clear writing on the parcel.

If you prefer to drop your parcels off at the post office, we still offer that service but you will be required to print off your label beforehand as they do not have print in-store facilities.

DX Economy and Express

DX Delivery

DX (Delivered Exactly) Economy and Express also offer a printer-free service. They pride themselves in fast, reliable next day delivery, fulfilling their promise that your parcel will be "delivered exactly".

Like the Tuffnells and Parcelforce services, your friendly DX driver will arrive on your doorstep with label in-hand, so there is no need for you to print it out. Remember to handwrite your delivery address on the parcel clearly.

Collect Plus

Collect  Delivery

Collect (Collect Plus) is one of the fastest-growing parcel delivery companies in the UK, designed to make posting parcels and packages a breeze for anyone, regardless of where they live.

Collect Plus have over 5,800 drop off points throughout the UK, most of the UK population live less than a mile from their local Collect drop off point so why not use the printer-free service on the school run or your morning commute. If your parcel is under 10kg and 60cm in length this is the service for you. Here's how it works:

  • When you book a printer-free service through Interparcel, we will email you a barcode for your shipping label
  • Next, simply pop into your local Collect Plus store and show the barcode to the shopkeeper for them to scan
  • The shopkeeper will print off the label and then store your parcel for collection

To see where your nearest Collect Plus store is located, use our Collect Plus locater tool.


Unfortunately, our printer-free options are only available for UK domestic deliveries as international shipments require a customs invoice that must be printed out and attached to the parcels.


At Interparcel, we offer a wide range of printer-free courier services and some of the best prices around. Through the years, we have developed a strong relationship with reputable courier companies to provide our customers with the best range of services options. Get a quote today!
