Everything you need to know about your Plant and Package Tags

Ordering Tags in Metrc is a simple process however it is very important to pay close attention when placing your order. Once a tag order is submitted it can only be canceled before 7 pm CST on the day that you place the order. Metrc tags are custom printed for each facility and cannot be returned once the printing process has begun and are non-refundable; so, it is strongly advised that you be sure orders are placed for the correct facility, amount and type of tags required. Additional notes about tag ordering:

  • Tags are ordered from the Admin function
  • Tags can be ordered via Credit Card, check or money order
  • Payment information is not required to be the licensee or the business owner
  • Each facility must have billing information entered. You can choose to ship to a different location (No PO Boxes).
  • Tags will be sent by UPS.
  • Tag costs are listed in your State’s Supplemental under the Support Tab.
  • You can request expedited shipping if you would like at an additional expense. The options are UPS Next Day Air and 2nd Day Air. In some areas UPS will deliver on Saturday’s, this is an additional expense on top of the Expedited charge. Please contact the support line at [email protected] or 877-566-6506 to expedite your tag order as soon as you have completed the order. Expedited shipping is not available in all states.
  • Please note if you place an order for Expedited Next Day or 2nd Day air it will not print or ship until the next business day.

If you order on a Thursday it will print and ship Friday and arrive Monday with Next Day Air or Tuesday with 2nd Day air. Nothing will ever print or ship of the day of an order.
