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

Editor summary

ASTORAGE is a fulfillment and warehousing operation at 902 Columbia Ave in Riverside, California, about an hour inland from the Los Angeles and Long Beach ports. California records an active corporation, A-Storage Group Inc., registered in May 2019 at that same address, and the domain dates to November 2017. Amazon prep is one line among several: the same warehouse runs Amazon FBM, Shopify, Walmart and TikTok fulfillment, cubic and pallet storage, container unloading and cross docking. The prep page is unusually specific about the inbound chain. Unit-level work covers FNSKU labeling, relabeling, barcode coverage, poly bagging, bundling and expiration-date labeling. Carton prep applies carton labels, pallet prep stacks, wraps and pallet-labels, then the shipment is handed to the carrier for the Amazon fulfillment center. They also process removal orders and will take supported hazmat once the product qualifies. Rates are published rather than quoted: prep is $1.00 per item including labeling, inspection and packaging, and storage is $0.65 per cubic foot per month. Three cautions. Their own counters disagree, with the homepage claiming 3 million boxes shipped and the pricing page footer claiming 1 million. The homepage also advertises a "Prime Los Angeles Location" five miles from the Port of Long Beach, against a warehouse roughly 50 miles inland. None of its volume or brand-count figures is independently verifiable.
