What goes wrong elsewhere
The problems this solves
Prep centre pricing is a fog
Quotes 'from' one number, invoices built from another. When per-unit rates and add-ons are not published, comparing prep centres is guesswork by design.
Your stock disappears into silence
Between your supplier's van and Amazon's dock, most prep centres are a black box. If units went missing or arrived damaged, you find out from Amazon's reconciliation.
Slow prep is stranded cash
Every day stock waits unprepped is a day it is not selling. A prep backlog at your centre turns into stockouts on your listings.
How it runs
4 steps, all of them visible to you
Each step writes back to your portal as it happens, so progress is something you check rather than something you chase.

Questions
Asked before, answered here
How do I choose an FBA prep centre in the UK?
Compare on the things that are checkable: a full published rate card, a stated turnaround target, and real visibility into your stock while they hold it. Our answer to each is on this site - per-unit rates from £0.50 down to £0.30, a 24hr prep turnaround target, and a portal with live inventory and discrepancy photo alerts. Any centre that will not publish the same is asking you to buy blind.
How much does a UK FBA prep centre charge per unit?
Our rates are volume-tiered: £0.50 per unit at 1–500, £0.45 at 501–1,000, £0.40 at 1,001–2,000, £0.35 at 2,001–3,000 and £0.30 at 3,001+. Inspection, FNSKU label and Amazon-ready packing are included at every tier. Bundling is published separately at £0.35 per unit bundled.
Does it matter where in the UK my prep centre is?
Less than sellers assume. Your supplier ships to the prep centre by carrier and the prep centre ships to Amazon by carrier, so the working variables are inbound cost, turnaround speed and visibility - not mileage from your house. UK domestic carriage means a centre anywhere in the country is effectively next-day from anywhere else in it.
Can my overseas supplier ship directly to your prep centre?
Yes, and it is the normal setup: your supplier or freight forwarder sends stock straight to us, cutting out a stop at your own address. We receive parcels, pallets and full containers, and everything is counted against the inbound you announced in the portal.
Do you charge storage while stock waits for an Amazon shipment?
Every delivery gets its first 30 days free, which is designed to cover the normal gap between goods-in and your shipment going out. Beyond that it is £20 per cubic metre per month, measured on your products' own dimensions times the units on hand and billed weekly - so long-stay stock has a visible cost that falls as it sells, rather than a surprise one.
