Full 3PL

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

Editor summary

Shiplakes is a founder-run 3PL in Warren, Michigan, built for brands shipping 50 to 1,000 orders a month, running DTC pick and pack, inventory management, returns and Amazon FBA prep. The prep page sets out the whole inbound path rather than a feature list: an intake call covering catalog and restricted categories, limited Seller Central user permissions so the team can build shipments on the seller's behalf, inbound receiving with inspection and unitizing in 24 to 48 hours, FNSKU labeling with polybagging, bundling and shrink-wrap as required, shipment creation in Seller Central including fulfillment center selection and carton label generation, Amazon Partnered Carrier handoff, and reconciliation of unit counts against Amazon's received count. Prep is priced at $1.00 a unit falling to $0.80 above 2,000 units a month, with shipment plan creation at $20 and LTL pallet prep at $35. Supplements, beauty and electronics are named as core categories. Cautions. The domain is only 13 months old and no Michigan registry record was reachable without a browser, so the operating record is short and thinly documented. This is a small operation by design.
