Ships A Lot: Your Ultimate Amazon FBA and FBM Partner

Ships A Lot helps Amazon sellers master FBA and FBM—handling prep, labeling, storage, and Prime-eligible shipping with white-glove 3PL support.

Whether you’re a seasoned seller or just starting in the world of ecommerce, understanding your fulfillment options is critical to your success. If you’re interested in selling on Amazon, you may be familiar with their Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) or Fulfillment by Merchant (FBM) services… but you may not be aware of Amazon’s strict program guidelines. Fortunately, Ships A Lot is an expert in both and the ideal partner to help ecommerce sellers navigate the Amazon selling process!


Which Service is a Better Fit for Your Business?
With Fulfillment By Amazon (FBA), sellers send their products to Amazon’s fulfillment centers and their team handles the picking, packing, and shipping of orders, along with providing customer service and managing returns as needed. While FBA can be an attractive one-stop-sell for retailers, Amazon’s high fulfillment price tag deters some sellers. In addition, Amazon has very strict guidelines on FBA sales, including requirements for the product listing, compliance, packaging, inventory, documentation, and customer communication.

Ships A Lot is a pro at navigating these requirements and preparing your products for FBA sales. Our comprehensive array of services simplifies the process of preparing products for Amazon and ensures seamless handling and a smooth prep process.

Through Fulfillment by Merchant (FBM) with Ships A Lot, we store your inventory and take care of packaging, labeling, and shipping your products. This option allows sellers a more cost-effective approach while maintaining more flexibility and control over their products and enabling you to fulfill across multiple sales channels. Depending on your sales and product, you may be eligible for Prime shipping. 

Ships A Lot’s expert team follows industry-leading practices to manage tasks ranging from polybagging, bubble wrapping, and bundling to applying FNSKU labels and devising shipment plans. Each item undergoes meticulous inspection to ensure precision, while our advanced inventory management systems ensure accurate tracking and timely updates.

Whether you decide to take the FBA or FBM route, Ships A Lot will provide you with customized white-glove service. You can leverage our expertise in efficient packaging, labeling, and quality assurance to ensure your inventory adheres to Amazon’s rigorous standards and arrives at their fulfillment centers in great condition.
