| go to www.fedex.com...log onto myfedex...if you don't have an account, you can set one up...there is no fee to set one up and there is no charge UNLESS you have a shipment charged to you. They will ask for a credit/debit card to set up the account. Once you are set up, go to the tab at the top which reads ship...drop down menu says "prepare shipment online"...you fill in all requested information...at the bottom of the first column where it asks "bill transportation to", it will default with your account number. Click on that and you will see "recipient" or "third party". I usually put third party at this point and just below it put THEIR account number. Once you fill in the rest of the requested information, it gives you another set of instruction if you need them (i.e. Saturday delivery)...it asks when you will be shipping out the package, the approx weight (I usually put 1 lb)...and use a FedEx express envelope option. Then it goes and gives you a preview and says, is this right?...if so click yes (or whatever it says) and it takes you to the label. Here you must be careful. Print out the label on your printer...but be careful NOT to make a duplicate label. If you do, the third party will be charged double. Print out the label, click "done" or whatever it asks. Take the printed label, insert in the holder for the FedEx Express pack and either take to the FedEx Kinko's or drop in the box. If you then go to track you will see the tracking is already there and will be sent to you automatically via email. If you have any further questions, email me. "Doc" |
