You keep selling while we pick up: Best practices for a seamless shipping experience

Your business moves fast. Between managing inventory, launching new marketing campaigns, and keeping your customers happy, you have a lot on your plate. Shipping should not just be another task on your to-do list. It should be a competitive advantage. It is the final step in your warehouse and the first step toward a happy customer.

At Amazon Shipping, we are more than just a logistics provider. We are invested in your growth. We offer value that goes beyond moving a box from A to B. We provide reliability you can count on and technology that simplifies your day. Whether you ship twenty packages a day or two thousand, a streamlined pickup process saves you time and prevents delays.

Here is how you can optimize the pickup experience and unlock more value for your business.

The best pickups start with a plan. We rely on dynamic planning to ensure we send the right vehicle with the right capacity for your volume. By keeping your volume projections up to date in your Amazon Shipping account, you help us guarantee we have the space ready for you.

If you expect a spike in orders due to a promotion, let us know. You can easily update your forecast in the pickups calendar to reflect planned sales spikes. This collaboration allows us to adapt to your changing capacity needs, ensuring your packages never get left behind.

Our network uses advanced automation to move packages quickly, and this technology relies on precision. Preparing your packages correctly ensures they fly through our sort centers without manual delays.

• Weight and Size: Ensure packages are under 50 lb and within 59x33x33 inches.
• Label Placement: Place labels on the largest, flattest surface. Avoid folding them over edges so our scanners can read them instantly.
• The Right Seal: Use pressure-sensitive tape and the H-taping method to secure all seams.

When you follow these steps, you reduce the risk of damages and delays, protecting your brand’s reputation with every delivery.

We offer the flexibility to match your operational needs, whether you are a growing brand or an established enterprise business.

• Loose Loads: For smaller volume pickups, we scan packages right at your warehouse9. This gives you immediate visibility and peace of mind.
• Palletized Loads: For larger volumes, palletizing saves your team valuable time. Ensure you stack heavier items on the bottom and wrap the pallet securely at least three times. Remember that pallets must be under 77 inches in height and weigh less than 2,000 lb.

We know you do not want to waste time chasing down paper trails. We offer a digital handover document known as the eBOL (Electronic Bill of Lading). Your driver generates this digitally and asks you to sign on their device. You can view the document in your account or on the Amazon Shipping app for up to 30 days. It is simple, secure, and removes administrative clutter from your desk.

This is where Amazon Shipping stands apart. We know that e-commerce does not stop on Friday at 5 p.m. That is why we offer pickups seven days a week to ensure your customers get their orders faster.

This allows you to keep your warehouse clear and your inventory moving every single day of the week. It provides the operational agility you need to handle volume spikes without breaking your budget.

You focus on the selling. We will handle the heavy lifting. Ready to simplify your shipping?
