Are you talking about the green-and-yellow labels? 
These are not prepaid shipping labels, but labels which direct the mail carrier to send the package to a port of entry.
You get these by sending a request via email to GreenandyellowPlantslabelrequest@aphis.usda.gov
You need to include your name and permit number and the approved port, with your request. Specify the number of labels required, in multiples of four. 
They reply with a PDF which has the labels, which you can then print out.
