Editor summary

Loading Center Logistics is a warehousing, freight forwarding and fulfilment company on Bridge Trading Estate, Great Blakenham, near Ipswich in Suffolk, close to the Port of Felixstowe. It trades as Loading Center Logistics Ltd (Companies House 08590143, incorporated July 2013) and says it runs an HMRC-authorised ETSF facility for goods under customs control. Its Amazon prep page has described the same service since at least July 2019: stock arrives by parcel, pallet or container, is counted, scanned and inspected, then prepped to the seller's instructions and Amazon's packaging rules, including polybagging and barcode labelling, before despatch by Amazon's couriers, pallet or full truck. Items that fail Amazon's standards are reported by email with photos. Relabelling and removal-order stock handling are listed too, and the site states a daily handling volume of 3,000 to 5,000 units. Published rates: SKU labelling from £0.45 per label, UK mainland shipping from £4.50 per box, and storage from £3.50 per cubic metre per week after a free period. There is no minimum order charge. Cautions: receiving, inspection and repackaging fees are quote-based, and the site gives two different free-storage periods (four weeks on the homepage, one week on the prep page). The ETSF status and trade-body memberships are the company's own claims.
