How to print bin labels from Excel

Published: · 3 min read · How-to
Do this in the free app: app.mylabelmaker.com. No signup. Design the label, then print on a Zebra or download PNG / PDF / ZPL.

Open bin location template

You changed slotting in aisle A. The location list is already in Excel. Design one bin label in the free label maker. Put {{loc}} huge. Barcode the same column. Load the sheet. Reprint the aisle.

Good to know: Print one test on the real bin before you run 200. Wrong size is the usual miss.

How a warehouse reprints an aisle

  1. Sheet headers: loc, aisle, sku (optional).
  2. Open the free label maker. Set 3x2 or your bin size.
  3. Put {{loc}} large. Add a barcode that uses {{loc}}.
  4. Upload the Excel file. Preview two locations. Print the aisle.

Sample spreadsheet

A location dump after slotting might look like this.

locaisle
A-12-04A
A-12-05A
B-03-01B

First row is the header. Those header words go inside the curly braces on the label, like {{loc}}.
