Check products before prep
Before labels are applied or cartons are closed, sellers should confirm product quantity, packaging condition, carton marks and marketplace requirements.
Labeling and packaging matter
FBA shipments can be delayed or rejected when labels, cartons, weights or packaging do not match requirements. Clear preparation reduces avoidable handling problems later.
Decide where prep should happen
Prep can often be done closer to the supplier, in a warehouse, or before final shipment to the marketplace. The best location depends on inspection needs, shipment timing and the sales channel.
Information to prepare
- SKU list and product quantities.
- Carton dimensions and weights.
- Labeling, bundling or repacking requirements.
- Destination marketplace or fulfillment center instructions.
- Preferred transport mode and deadline.
