Packing Slip Generator.
Enter the order number, the customer’s address and what is in the box, and this tool produces a packing slip listing every item with quantities ordered, shipped and backordered, plus carrier, tracking and return instructions, ready to print and drop in the parcel.
Leave "Shipped" blank to ship the full quantity ordered. Prices are deliberately left off, which suits gifts and marketplace orders. Nothing is uploaded or stored.

What you'll get.
A real example of what this tool produces. Run it above with your own inputs.
A packing slip, also called a packing list or delivery note, travels inside the parcel and lists what was packed. The customer uses it to check the order is complete, your warehouse or kitchen table uses it to pick the right items, and both of you use it when something is missing. Unlike an invoice, it usually shows no prices, which is why marketplace sellers and gift orders use it.
This generator creates a clean packing slip with your ship-from address, the customer's delivery address, order number, order and ship dates, carrier and tracking, and each item's SKU, quantity ordered, quantity shipped and anything backordered. Add a returns note and a short thank-you, then print it on A4 or US Letter.
It is free, runs in your browser and needs no account. It comes from Neweb, the AI website builder for small businesses (free plan, paid plans from $9/month billed yearly, $19 month-to-month). The returns line on your slip should match the returns policy on your website; the refund policy generator drafts one.
How to use the packing slip generator
Enter your business and ship-from address, then the customer name and delivery address.
Add the order number, order date and ship date, and the carrier and tracking number if you have them.
Add each item with its SKU and the quantity ordered. Fill in shipped only if you are sending fewer than ordered.
Add a returns note and a message to the customer if you want them.
Click Preview, then Print / save as PDF, and put the slip in the parcel or a document pouch on the outside.
Why this matters for your business
Fewer "my order is incomplete" emails. When an item is backordered, a slip that says so up front stops a complaint before it starts.
Fewer picking mistakes. A slip with SKUs and quantities is a checklist for whoever packs the box, which matters most on busy days.
A better unboxing. A clean slip with a thank-you line and return instructions makes a small shop look organised and builds repeat orders.
Tips for better results
- Use the same order number as your shop or marketplace so you can match returns quickly.
- Print two copies for business-to-business deliveries: one in the box and one for the customer to sign as proof of delivery.
- Leave prices off gift orders; send the receipt separately with the receipt generator.
- Use a document pouch on the outside of the parcel for international shipments, alongside any customs paperwork the carrier requires.
- For wholesale orders, quote the buyer’s purchase order number in the order field.
- Add a link to your website or a QR code from the QR code generator to bring customers back to reorder.
Example
A real-world walkthrough
Fern & Clay, a two-person ceramics studio in Leeds, packs an online order for two speckled mugs and a serving bowl. The bowl is still in the kiln. The owner enters order #10482, the customer's address in Bath, Royal Mail Tracked 48 and the tracking number, then lists the mugs with 2 ordered and the bowl with 1 ordered and 0 shipped.
The slip shows 3 items ordered, 2 shipped and 1 backordered, with a note that the bowl will follow separately, the studio's 30-day return policy and a thank-you line. She prints it on A4 and puts it in the box.
Frequently asked questions
What is a packing slip?
A packing slip is a document included in a shipment that lists the items packed, usually with SKUs and quantities but without prices. It lets the recipient check the delivery against the order and helps the sender pick and pack correctly. It typically shows the order number, order and ship dates, the sender and delivery addresses, and notes about backorders or returns.
What is the difference between a packing slip and an invoice?
An invoice asks for payment and shows prices, tax and totals. A packing slip describes the contents of a parcel and usually shows no prices. Many businesses send both: the invoice by email to the person paying, and the packing slip in the box for the person receiving. For the invoice, use the invoice generator.
Is a packing slip the same as a packing list or delivery note?
Broadly, yes. "Packing slip" is common in the US for parcel shipping, "delivery note" in the UK and Commonwealth, and "packing list" in freight and export, where it may need extra detail such as weights, dimensions and the number of cartons for customs. This generator covers the parcel and delivery note use; for international freight, check what your carrier or customs broker requires.
Do I have to include a packing slip?
Usually there is no legal requirement for domestic parcels, but many marketplaces, wholesale buyers and fulfilment partners require one, and customers expect one. International shipments need customs documents, such as a commercial invoice, which are different from a packing slip. Check the rules of your marketplace and carrier.
How do I show backordered items?
Enter the full quantity in "Ordered" and the number you are actually sending in "Shipped". The slip calculates the backordered quantity for each line and adds a note that those items will ship separately. If you are shipping everything, leave "Shipped" blank and it defaults to the quantity ordered.
