Automated check: the listed site loaded on its own domain, with no parking-page signs, and its text names Amazon, FBA or FNSKU. Not a review. How it works

Full 3PL

General fulfillment operation with a verified FBA prep service. Never ranked and never counted in our prep-specialist stats.

Editor summary

3PLGuys is a third-party logistics operator at 14512 Garfield Ave in Paramount, California, running Amazon FBA prep alongside direct-to-consumer and B2B fulfillment. The prep line is specific about the inbound work: receiving and unit-level inspection against Amazon compliance requirements, FNSKU label application, poly-bagging, bundling and barcoding, and creation of compliant shipment plans into Amazon fulfillment centers. Loose and floor-loaded carton arrivals get their own workflow, with carton-level inspection, unload, sort and palletize, label and SKU verification, returns inspection and sorting, and carton forwarding. The company has operated the domain since July 2018 and lists an iOS client app, though that app has not been updated since October 2021. Stated turnaround differs by page: the homepage shows under 24 hours and the prep page promises same-day prep, but the same prep page also states 24 to 48 hours and an average of 2 to 3 business days from receiving to shipment creation. Prep pricing is quote-based rather than published, with no setup fee and no contract; the warehousing page lists ranges for pallet storage, receiving and pick and pack. The quote widget promises a reply within two hours, while the FBA quote form promises a quote within 24 hours. Two things to note. The site describes itself as Amazon SPN certified, FDA registered and GMP certified, and cites a 250,000 sq ft facility. Amazon's Service Provider Network directory lists 3PLGUYS as an FBA Preparation provider (checked October 10, 2026), but the listing shows no certification; the FDA, GMP and floor-space claims cannot be checked from outside, and we do not assert them. And its volume claims do not agree: one page says 500 million units to date, another 50 million, and the prep page says three million FBA units since 2018.

Pricing

-unknown

Quote-based; no published prep rates as of 2026-10-14 (https://3plguys.com/amazon-fba-prep: 'Request a free quote with your product details and volume.'). The prep page states the commercial terms but not the prep numbers: 'No Setup Fees, No Contracts. Pay per unit. Scale up or down whenever you want. No hidden fees, no long-term commitments.' The warehousing page does publish ranges for other lines: pallet storage $25-40 per pallet per month, receiving $25-35 per pallet, pick and pack $2-5 per order, and a climate zone at +$5 per pallet per month, with 'Exact pricing depends on your SKUs, volume, and handling requirements' (https://3plguys.com/warehousing). The quote widget on the homepage and prep page says 'We respond within 2 hours', but the FBA quote form says 'We send you a quote within 24 hours' (https://3plguys.com/forms/fbaform). Note: the figure '$0.50-2.00 per unit' that appears on the prep page is the site describing what sellers generally pay across the market, not 3PLGuys' own rate card, and should not be quoted as their pricing; the same page's 'Typical FBA prep pricing' breakdown does not say it is 3PLGuys' own card either, and its pallet storage and receiving ranges differ from the warehousing page.
