Service FAQ

Questions that shape the work instruction.

What prep services can ShipHouse perform?

A scoped program can include receiving checks, inspection, labeling, polybagging, protection, bundling, kitting, carton work, rework, and eligible pallet preparation.

Is this the same as FBA prep?

No. This page helps identify the right preparation workflow. Amazon-specific shipment-plan, FNSKU, and FBA requirements are covered on the FBA Prep page.

Can inventory arrive from my supplier?

Yes, when the inbound reference, carton and unit quantities, product identifiers, and discrepancy process are defined before arrival.

Can you source packaging or labels?

Materials and label generation can be reviewed as part of scope. Ownership, specifications, lead times, and approval must be agreed before work begins.

What happens when received inventory does not match?

The agreed exception process determines whether the work pauses, affected units are isolated, or the variance is approved before preparation continues.
