A container labeling system includes a vertical feed system. The vertical feed system includes a continuous roll of non-seamed shrink film material, where the non-seamed shrink film material shrinks in a cross-machine direction. A severing device is used to sever the non-seamed shrink film material into discrete lengths of non-seamed shrink material. A vertical feed mechanism transfers the discrete lengths of non-seamed shrink material toward a transport mechanism. A labeling apparatus receives the discrete lengths of non-seamed shrink material from the transport mechanism. The labeling apparatus is configured to form a tube from the discrete length of non-seamed shrink material and to apply the tube to a container for a shrinking operation.
