Shipping Stock to Fulfilment Centres in Canada

How inbound shipments work and how to keep the cost per unit down.

How it works

You create a shipment, Amazon tells you where to send it, and you ship by a partnered or your own carrier.

Cost per unit

Divide the shipment cost by the number of units and add it to each product's cost.

Lower it

Fill boxes properly
Ship fewer, larger shipments
Compare partnered-carrier rates

Timing

Allow for receiving time, which is longer before the holidays.
