hi welcome to our channel my name is
Alina and you were watching hustling so
where I talk all about making money from
home entrepreneurship being a home mom
and a lot about reselling so I resell on
eBay and Poshmark today I'm gonna go
over how to ship on Poshmark I'm going
to go over all the different free boxes
you can get from USPS to use to ship on
Poshmark
and also have to log in to your account
and actually find that shipping labels
so that you can print it and put on your
package and get that item shipped so if
you want to know about something on
Posche bag go ahead and keep watching
alright so the first thing I'm going to
do is I'm going to show you the free
boxes that you can get from USPS they
have tons of free boxes that you can use
if you ship Priority Mail and all
Poshmark packages go out using Priority
Mail so you can use those USPS boxes the
first thing I wanna mention is that your
buyer pays for shipping on Poshmark
unless you offer a shipping discounts
all you do is log into your Poshmark
account and print that shipping label
once that item is sold
now once item is sold you're going to be
shipping that item through USPS priority
mail you're just gonna print the label
and put it on a package you can either
use any package packaging of your choice
I mean boxes or envelopes that aren't
specified for different carrier or a
different type of shipping like if you
just buy your own blank boxes or bags or
you can also use the free USPS priority
mail shipping supplies which I prefer to
do because that's cheaper for me which
means more money for me right so I'm
going to show you the different supplies
I'm not going to show you everything
that's available because there are so
many different boxes that they offer but
I'm going to show you the ones that I
use most often alright so there are
several different kinds of envelopes and
I do want to start by saying that I
prefer to use cardboard and paper
because in my mind that's more
eco-friendly than anything plastic so
while I love the bubble envelope when
I'm shipping on ebay because it's cheap
and it kind of protects the item a
little bit I don't love using it for
Poshmark if I don't need to so I try not
to use that the other options are the
taiga envelope which I also love free
shipping on ebay because it's really
lightweight but on Poshmark it doesn't
matter because unless you're selling
something heavy or a lot of stuff that
ends up being heavy because your label
only goes up to five pounds
if your item weighs or your package
weighs more than five pounds you need to
buy additional shipping through Poshmark
which I will also show you in a little
bit as well so this is great if you are
trying to reduce that shipping like
maybe if you're at five pounds on one
ounce see if you can throw it in this if
you have it in the box and you can throw
it in this it might save you some weight
but the other two envelopes are the flat
rate envelope and the legal flat rate
I'm look they're basically it's the same
thing one's just a little bit longer
than the other and these are both made
of cardboard and we use these once in a
while before like either jeans or tops
and stuff that kind of will kind of stay
nicely in this because it is cardboard I
don't feel like you should put anything
in here that might bust through the
cardboard or anything like that so these
are gonna be easier than boxes to put in
like your mailbox or for your carrier to
pick up so this might be better you can
also use your own poly mailers if you'd
like to those are also plastic but you
can use these if you like now this box
is the small flat rate box I think that
you can also buy it without saying flat
rate but on Poshmark you can use flat
rate envelopes um they do have a deal
with USPS where you can use the flat
rate items even if you're not shipping
flat rates so that's something to keep
in mind so this is a the small flat rate
box and it is kind of tricky to get to
fold up because you kind of have to fold
it around the item like this and then
you like this adhesive strip and you
pull it in and tape it down um I like to
use these when I can but I do put an
extra piece of tape because I feel like
it doesn't stick perfectly well I am a
little nervous about that so this is
good for like really small tops or even
my jewelry that you bubble-wrapped or
anything small you could put in this box
and then the two boxes the two larger
boxes that I use the most are the
shoebox and the medium flat rate box so
I'm gonna show you the shoebox first the
shoebox is shaped like this let me see
if I can get it to pop open
it is shaped like this and you kind of
just fold in the sides and sometimes if
you're selling shoes that are new in the
box they will actually slide right into
the shoe box this is good for larger
shoes yeah
but I prefer using this medium flat rate
box for everything it just pulls it
aside you do have to tape this Chuck
yourself it doesn't have the adhesive
that some of the others have already but
the reason I like it is because it is
bigger so if you're selling sending
something that is a little bit bigger
you can put it here if you're selling
like a bundle then you can put in here
as well but also if you are selling
shoes it looks nicer in this kind of
like laid out like it's in a regular
shoe box then it would kind of jumbled
around in that longer shoe box so it
really just depends on the item you're
selling what you want to use so kind of
just go with your preference you'll kind
of figure out what works for you but
these are the free supplies from USPS
that I prefer to use I will link below
to the USPS website where they have all
that free Priority Mail supplies but now
I'm going to head over the computer and
show you my screen and walking through
I'm finding your Poshmark label and
printing it as well as some of the
settings that you can work on and how to
buy extra shipping if your item is more
than five pounds all right so we are in
Poshmark
and you made a sale so the first thing
you want to do is print that shipping
label so you're going to go up here to
your little face and you're going to go
to my sales once you're there you can
find the item that has sold you can see
this says order sadness soul this one
down here says shipped and this one says
delivered so these have all already been
shipped so we're going to click on this
item and then you're going to see all
the information about your sale that you
made and down here at the bottom you're
gonna see download shipping labels so
you're gonna click that and it is going
to click download you can also find the
label in your email but I find it easier
if I have several packages to ship out
to just do it through Poshmark and you
click download and it will download for
you as a PDF so I'm going to click that
so you can see what that looks like
and this is what it looks like because I
print with a label printer so is a four
six label but I will show you how to do
it if you were just printing on plain
paper or on one of those two labels per
sheet pieces of paper that are the size
of a normal sheet of paper one other
thing I want to show you is if your item
or your bundle of items is over five
pounds you will need to purchase more or
a heavier label so you're gonna click
over here where it says new shipping
label and you're gonna click need
heavier weight label and then from there
it's going to say your prepaid label
supports up to five pounds if you have
an overweight package you have to pay
for an extra fee and then you just
select the weight that you need here so
you can see that's exactly how you do
that if you need a heavier label so just
keep that in mind when you're doing
bundles or selling items that are
heavier that you are gonna have to pay a
little bit more to ship those items now
if you want to change those settings for
your shipping labels just go to account
settings and if you scroll down you're
going to see shipping label settings and
it's very simple if you're going to be
printing on eight-and-a-half by eleven
paper you select this one and confirm
and you leave it like that and I will
show you what that looks like as well so
we're going to sales we're gonna click
on the sale and then one click download
shipping label click download and this
is our label and it's going to print it
right in the middle of the sheet so if
you have a piece of paper that's fine
but if you have one of those two page or
two labels per page sheets or if you
want to just be a little bit more eco
friendly with your printing then here's
a trick for you alright so what you're
gonna do is you can see that the label
is going past that halfway point so you
cannot fit two labels on one sheet so
what you can do is you can go to scale
and yours is gonna probably look a
little bit different but somewhere there
should be a place where you can change
the scale or the size and you can go to
custom and you can change it and I
usually about 70 or 80 percent 70
percent looks a little too small so
probably about eighty percent will make
it so the only prints on half of the
sheet so you have the other half
available another option would be to
screenshot it and put it into a document
like a pages or a Word document
and then print it that way so it only
prints on one side all right so that's
everything I have to tell you about
shipping on Poshmark hopefully this is
making it a little bit easier for you to
figure out how to get your items shipped
