Editor summary

Automated3PL is an FBA prep operation running out of 120 Tolland Street in East Hartford, Connecticut, with a second warehouse in Perris, California that is priced identically. Despite the name it sells one line: inbound Amazon prep, wrapped in its own inventory app. Sellers create a vault shipment by ASIN, get notified on receipt, then hand the app an FBA shipment ID when they want stock moved. Pricing is published in four volume tiers, $1.50 per standard unit at 1 to 500 units a month down to $0.80 above 5,000, with oversize $0.25 to $0.30 higher. Each tier includes FNSKU labeling, heat-sealed poly bags, suffocation labels, sticker removal, dunnage, expiration labels, outbound boxes and 30 days of storage. There is no setup fee and no monthly minimum. The facility has a loading dock and accepts supplier pallets and ships pallets to Amazon. Stated turnaround is 5 to 72 hours after a shipment is entered. One caution: the FAQ still lists a Berlin, Connecticut address while the footer and map point to East Hartford, so confirm the ship-to address before sending inventory.
