Reverb Shipping Label Maker — Free for Music Gear Sellers
Reverb is the largest online marketplace for musical instruments and gear, and shipping music equipment comes with its own challenges — guitars need oversized labels for large boxes, vintage amps are fragile and heavy, and pedals and accessories ship cheaply via USPS. Reverb provides built-in Reverb Shipping labels with discounted rates for platform sales, but sellers often need additional labels for cross-listed gear sold on eBay, Craigslist, or their own websites. Our tool handles every music gear shipping scenario. Enter the buyer's address, add the Reverb order number, select your package type (box for amps and guitars, envelope for accessories), and enable FRAGILE marking for fragile instruments. UPS and FedEx label formats are available for large, heavy gear where Reverb Shipping's USPS rates aren't the best option. We don't buy postage, but we give you the perfectly formatted label for any carrier.
Tips for Reverb Sellers
- Always mark guitars, vintage amps, and fragile instruments with FRAGILE — sort facility rough handling is the most common cause of gear damage in transit
- Add the Reverb order number in the reference field to match labels to gear during packing — especially important for multi-item orders from different buyers
- UPS or FedEx Ground is usually cheapest for large, heavy amps and speaker cabs over 50 lbs — USPS rates are not competitive at that weight
- For pickups, tuners, straps, and other small accessories, USPS First Class Package is the most economical option at under 15.99 oz
Who this is for
- ✓Reverb sellers who cross-list guitars, amps, and pedals on eBay or locally and need off-platform labels
- ✓Vintage gear dealers who sell through multiple channels and want consistent, professional labels regardless of where the sale happened
- ✓Music store owners using Reverb as one of several sales channels alongside their own e-commerce site
- ✓High-volume pedal and accessory resellers who need batch label creation for multiple small shipments per day
When this isn’t the right tool
- •Reverb sellers whose sales all occur on Reverb and who use Reverb Shipping — their integrated discounted labels are the best option for those transactions
- •Sellers shipping internationally who need Reverb's international platform to handle customs — use Reverb's own international shipping tools for that
Reverb shipping workflow

For Reverb platform sales, use Reverb Shipping for the discounted rates. For eBay, direct, or local-turned-shipped sales, continue here.

Limitations & caveats
- •We don't buy Reverb's discounted carrier rates — those are only available through Reverb Shipping within the platform.
