One less thing for you to research. One more way we save you time so you can focus on what actually grows your business.
What Happens to Your Inventory After It Arrives
From there, your products move through prep: FNSKU labeling, polybagging, bubble wrap for fragiles, overboxing where Amazon requires it. If you sell multipacks or bundles, we assemble those as single units with the correct suffocation warnings and barcodes.
We’ve been doing this since 2013. That’s over a decade of adapting to Amazon’s rule changes — from the shift to FNSKU-only labeling to the 2024 inbound placement fee restructure. When Amazon updates requirements (and they do, roughly 2-3 times per year), we update our SOPs before most sellers even read the announcement.
65 team members across three locations. Not a side hustle run out of someone’s garage.
Amazon Killed Its Own Prep Service. Now What?
This affects roughly 1.9 million active sellers worldwide. The ones who waited until Q4 2025 to find a prep center found most reputable facilities already at capacity.
If you’re reading this, you’re either already feeling the impact or you’re planning ahead. Either way, the math is simple: find a prep partner with enough space and enough experience to handle your volume without delays. We process thousands of units daily across 135,000 sq ft. We have room.
Every Step of FBA Prep, Handled
Amazon FBA Prep for Canadian and US Sellers
Delta is 20 minutes from the Peace Arch border crossing and about 30 km from the Port of Vancouver. If your products arrive by container from Asia, we can receive them directly from port through our transloading services and move them straight into FBA prep — no extra warehouse stop.
If you sell on both Amazon.ca and Amazon.com, we coordinate prep and shipment from the warehouse closest to each marketplace. That’s the advantage of having facilities on both sides of the border — your cross-border shipping stays simple.
Rationale: Original mentioned the dual billing and no-customs benefits but buried them in generic language. This version leads with the specific pain points (duties, brokerage, delays), names the border crossing and port, and links to transloading and cross-border shipping pages. Real operational detail that competitors lack.
FBA Removal Orders — Get Inventory Out Before Fees Stack Up
Here’s how it works with us: Amazon ships your removal order to our Delta, BC facility. We receive it, inspect every unit, and sort it into three categories:
Re-prep and reship — Units in sellable condition get re-labeled, repackaged, and sent back to Amazon or held for your next inbound shipment.
Redirect — Send inventory to your B2B wholesale channel or D2C storefront instead of back to Amazon. Sometimes a product sells better outside the marketplace.
Liquidate — For units that aren’t worth re-prepping, we help you move them through liquidation channels.
We handle the freight coordination on removals too. Our carrier relationships keep per-unit removal costs lower than what most sellers pay when managing this themselves.
Frequently Asked Questions About Amazon Fulfillment Services
What is FBA prep, and why can’t I just ship directly to Amazon?
Amazon requires every unit to arrive at their fulfillment centers labeled with an FNSKU barcode, packaged according to category-specific rules (polybagging, bubble wrap, overboxing), and packed in cartons that meet their weight and dimension specs. Ship non-compliant inventory and Amazon either rejects it or charges you a per-unit prep fee that’s almost always more expensive than using an outside prep center.
How much does FBA prep cost?
Industry standard for Canadian FBA prep centers ranges from $1.50 to $3.00 per unit for basic labeling and polybagging. Bundling, kitting, and overboxing cost more depending on complexity. We provide line-item quotes so you see exactly what each service costs — no bundled mystery pricing.
How fast do you process FBA shipments?
Standard turnaround is 48 hours from the time your inventory arrives at our Delta, BC warehouse. High-volume shipments (1,000+ units) or complex kitting jobs may take an extra day. We’ll confirm timing before we start.
Can you prep inventory for Amazon.com from Canada?
Yes. Our Delta, BC location is 20 minutes from the US border, and we handle customs documentation for cross-border shipments. For sellers who want to avoid the border entirely, we also have a facility near Seattle, WA that preps for Amazon.com domestically.
Do you handle FBA removal orders?
Yes. We receive and process removal orders from Amazon, inspect items, and either prep them for reshipment or handle disposition according to your instructions. This helps you avoid punishing long-term storage fees while recovering value from returned or slow-moving inventory.
What happens if Amazon changes its prep requirements?
They change them regularly — Amazon updates FBA policies multiple times per year. We’ve operated since 2013, which means we’ve adapted through every major shift, including the move to FNSKU-only labeling, the inbound placement fee rollout, and the January 2026 discontinuation of Amazon’s own prep service. When requirements change, we update our SOPs and notify affected clients.
Do you handle removal orders from Amazon?
Yes. We receive your removal shipments, inspect every unit, and either re-prep for reshipment, redirect to other sales channels, or manage liquidation. Details on our removal services page.
Do you work with both Seller Central and Vendor Central accounts?
Yes. We prep for standard FBA (Seller Central) and manage Vendor Central shipment requirements, which have different labeling and carton packing specs.
