Quick Summary
Delivering stock into Amazon Fulfilment Centres requires strict adherence to Amazon packaging specifications, pallet standards, and timed booking slots. Third-party logistics providers receive goods from sellers operating on Seller Central and Vendor Central for secure warehouse storage. Stock is inspected, labelled, and contract packed to meet Amazon compliance criteria before dispatch. Logistics partners book mandatory delivery appointments directly through the Amazon Carrier Appointment Request Portal. Consignments are then transported as palletised freight or individual parcels directly to designated regional fulfilment centres for onwards distribution.
Our Services
We aim to take away the headache of your Amazon operations, by offering the complete solution for your fulfilment. Our experience in working with Amazon sellers results in a comprehensive understanding of how the operations are carried out and we are a preferred Amazon haulier for our customers.
For Seller Central, our customers store their goods in our warehouse, we then ensure the goods are prepared and packaged to Amazon specifications. The order is then sent to the correct Amazon Fulfilment Centre for the onward distribution. Vendor Central customers store their goods in our warehouse facility and we are able to assist with either pallets or parcel deliveries to the correct Amazon Fulfilment Centre. The quantities here tend to vary depending on the product and SKUs.
We utilise the CARP system for booking transport jobs with Amazon, resulting in less paperwork for our customers, and ensuring we can meet all Amazon specifications and the requirements for each fulfilment centre.
