Question 2

Which PrepFort service do I need?

Accepted Answer

PrepFort offers distinct service lines. Choose the one that matches where your inventory goes next.

Amazon FBA and Walmart WFS prep

Choose this when PrepFort receives, inspects, labels, bags, bundles, boxes, or palletizes inventory before sending it to Amazon or Walmart fulfillment centers. FBA/WFS customers use https://dashboard.prepfort.com/.

DTC, FBM, and multi-channel fulfillment

Choose this when PrepFort stores inventory and ships individual customer orders from Shopify, Amazon FBM, TikTok Shop, WooCommerce, Faire, or another connected sales channel. DTC customers use PrepFort's Packiyo portal.

B2B and retail fulfillment

Choose this for wholesale, retail, distributor, or marketplace replenishment orders that may require carton labels, pallets, routing guides, ASNs, EDI, or delivery appointments. These programs are custom quoted.

Kitting, co-packing, subscription boxes, and corporate gifting

Choose this when components must be assembled, packaged, labeled, personalized, or quality checked before the finished goods are stored or shipped. These projects require an approved scope and quote.

Warehousing and freight

Choose this for storage, carton or pallet forwarding, container unloading, consolidation, or coordinated LTL/FTL transportation. Rates depend on the inventory, handling, and route.

You can combine service lines. For example, PrepFort can fulfill DTC orders while preparing separate inventory for FBA. Request a recommendation and quote at https://www.prepf

Question 3

Can I customize how my inventory is packaged?

Accepted Answer

Yes. In the FBA/WFS portal at https://dashboard.prepfort.com/, open Inventory, select the item, and use Manage Services to add or update its standard prep and packaging services. Save the changes before creating future shipments.

For a shipment-specific request, open the record under Inbound Shipments and use the Services tab and Manage Services. Add clear Notes when the warehouse needs context, but do not use a note as a substitute for selecting a billable service. Changes may not apply to work that has already started; contact PrepFort for an active shipment.

Question 4

How are shipping costs calculated and billed?

Accepted Answer

FBA and WFS transportation is separate from PrepFort's per-unit prep fee. The final cost depends on carton or pallet count, weight, dimensions, destination fulfillment center, carrier, and service level.

When you use an Amazon-partnered carrier, Amazon calculates the rate and generally charges it through Seller Central. Make sure the shipment plan uses PrepFort's current ship-from address so Amazon can quote the correct route. PrepFort can help create the shipment plan, but Amazon controls its partnered-carrier rates.

For DTC and FBM fulfillment, orders are managed in Packiyo. Shipping is billed at the carrier cost for the service selected. Available services can include USPS, UPS, FedEx, Better Trucks, Amazon Shipping, DHL, and international options; availability depends on the parcel and destination.

Your signed quote and warehousing agreement control any account-specific billing terms.

Question 5

How long can I store my products?

Accepted Answer

For standard Amazon FBA and Walmart WFS prep, storage is free for the first 14 days after receipt. After that, standard storage is $40 per pallet per month.

For prepped storage-and-forward inventory, standard release charges are $3 per carton and $30 per outbound LTL pallet, plus storage. Small-parcel shipments do not have an outbound palletizing charge.

For DTC fulfillment, standard storage is $5 per bin or $40 per pallet per month. Long-term, high-volume, or unusual storage is quoted case by case.

Your signed quote and warehousing agreement control account-specific rates, notice requirements, and inventory disposition terms. Contact PrepFort before sending inventory that will need extended storage.

Question 6

Can I add multiple items to my inventory at a time?

Accepted Answer

Yes. In the FBA/WFS portal at https://dashboard.prepfort.com/, open Inventory and select Upload Spreadsheet. Download the current template, keep its required headers, enter one item per row, and upload the completed file. Review the result summary and correct any rejected rows before retrying.

Use a unique merchant SKU for each item. If the products already exist in a connected Amazon or Walmart account, synchronize that marketplace first so you do not create duplicate manual records.
