The Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) program has changed how companies sell products online, offering two main advantages. First, instead of creating your website and marketing strategy from scratch, you can use Amazon's robust platform to give your products immediate exposure. Second, when you choose FBA, Amazon takes on much of the warehousing and delivery responsibilities, simplifying operations for your business.
However, while FBA does reduce some logistical challenges, businesses still need to meet specific packaging requirements and ensure their products reach the correct distribution centers. For businesses unaware of these requirements, working with a 3PL provider is invaluable.
With over three decades of 3PL expertise and 1.2 million square feet of warehouse space, 18 Wheels Warehousing & Trucking simplifies Amazon FBA by providing precise re-packing, reliable storage, and efficient transport services according to Amazon's requirements. We take the stress out of logistics and help you sell more products.

Overcoming Amazon FBA Challenges
Navigating the complexities of Amazon's FBA program can be daunting. To adhere to Amazon’s strict guidelines, each item must be packaged according to detailed standards – including labeling specifications and packaging materials. Errors in preparation can lead to delays or rejections at distribution centers, adding extra complications that can drain a company’s resources if not handled properly.
Shipments must also arrive at the right distribution centers within designated timeframes. Misrouted or late deliveries can negatively impact inventory levels and sales performance.
Apart from these logistical hurdles, managing inventory levels efficiently—including restocking—demands keen attention to detail and adherence to Amazon's processes.
