It’s 3 pm, the courier collects at 5, and 40 orders are still waiting. For each one you open the carrier site, copy the address, retype the weight, print the label, then paste the tracking number back into WooCommerce. By the time the last box is sealed, an hour has gone.
It doesn’t have to work that way.
ShipLabel — Shipping Labels for WooCommerce creates USPS and FedEx labels directly from your WooCommerce orders, including bulk labels for a whole batch, and syncs tracking back to each order. No carrier dashboard, no address copying.
This guide shows how to print multiple shipping labels in WooCommerce in one pass, what the workflow looks like from order list to tracking email, and where the limits are.
Why one-at-a-time labels eat your afternoon
The slow part isn’t the printing. It’s the repeated handling: switching tabs, re-entering data that WooCommerce already holds, then going back to mark the order as shipped. Each step is small, but across a busy day they add up, and every manual copy is a chance for a wrong address or a missing tracking number.
Pay-per-label services remove some of the typing, yet they still live outside your store and your order screen. If you want the single-order basics first, read our guide on how to print shipping labels from WooCommerce. Here we focus on batches.
How to print multiple shipping labels in 7 steps
- Connect your carrier accounts
Add your USPS and/or FedEx account to ShipLabel once. After that, every label is created from inside WooCommerce. - Check your ship-from address and package details
Make sure your sender address is correct and your products have weights, so each label starts from accurate data. - Open your orders list
Go to WooCommerce → Orders and filter to the orders that are ready to ship, for example Processing. - Select the whole batch
Tick the orders you want to ship today instead of opening them one by one. - Choose the bulk label action
Apply ShipLabel’s bulk labels action to the selected orders so labels are generated for the whole group. - Print and attach
Print the labels, stick them on the parcels and hand everything to the courier in one go. - Let tracking flow back
Tracking numbers sync to each order, and customers get their tracking details without you pasting anything.
What changes compared with copy and paste
| Task | Carrier site, one order at a time | ShipLabel bulk labels |
|---|---|---|
| Entering addresses | Typed or pasted per order | Read from the WooCommerce order |
| Creating labels | Separate dashboard, repeated per parcel | Selected orders in one action |
| Tracking numbers | Pasted back by hand | Synced to the order |
| Telling the customer | Manual email or forgotten | Tracking details sent from the order |
What to check before you rely on it
- Carriers: ShipLabel supports USPS and FedEx only. If you ship with another carrier, those orders stay outside this workflow.
- Your own carrier accounts: labels are created through the USPS and FedEx accounts you connect.
- Order data quality: a label is only as good as the address and weight on the order, so fix missing weights before a big batch.
- Start small: run a handful of orders first to confirm the labels print the way your courier expects.
- Order Fulfilments: ShipLabel works with WooCommerce’s native Order Fulfilments, so shipments are recorded where your team already looks.

Who gets the most from bulk labels
Stores that ship a daily batch to a fixed courier pickup feel it first. If you handle a few orders a week, single labels from the order screen are enough. Once you are selecting ten, twenty or forty orders at a time, bulk labels are where the saved minutes pile up. The same live checkout rates and tracking sync apply either way, so you can start with single orders and move to batches as volume grows.
Conclusion
Shipping a batch shouldn’t mean repeating the same copy, print and paste routine forty times. With labels created from the orders list and tracking synced back automatically, the afternoon rush becomes a short, predictable task.
Pick your next busy shipping day, connect your carrier accounts and run your first bulk batch from WooCommerce.
