Amazon FBA Prep That Passes Inspection the First Time

Amazon FBA prep gets your inventory ready to meet Amazon's fulfillment center rules before it ships in. That means FNSKU labeling, polybagging, bundling, and case-pack prep done to Amazon's spec. RitePrep is an Amazon prep center in Austin, Texas. We prep your inventory, then forward it to the fulfillment centers Amazon assigns, from the same warehouse that handles your DTC and Shopify orders.

Overview

What Is Amazon FBA Prep?

Amazon FBA prep is the work of getting your products ready for Amazon's fulfillment centers. This includes FNSKU labeling, polybagging, bundling, expiration date labeling, and case-packing to Amazon's spec.

What Is an Amazon Prep Center?

Sellers who prep their own inventory often run into rejected shipments, mislabeled units, or delays that keep listings out of stock. An Amazon prep center solves this by handling the prep work for you. You send us your inventory. We apply FNSKU labels and polybag and bundle to spec, inspect each unit, and ship it to the fulfillment centers Amazon assigns.

RitePrep runs its own prep center in Austin, Texas. The same warehouse also fulfills your DTC and Shopify orders, so FBA and direct-to-consumer inventory share one pool instead of splitting across two vendors.

01
The challenge

Why FBA Shipments Get Rejected or Delayed

Amazon's inbound rules are strict, and a small prep mistake can get a whole shipment held, relabeled, or refused.

01

Missing or unscannable FNSKU labels

02

Polybags without the required suffocation warning

03

Expiration dates in the wrong format, or missing entirely

04

Incorrect case-pack quantities or carton labels

05

Fragile units shipped without proper protection

Each rejection means delays, extra fees, and inventory stuck out of stock. Prepping it right the first time keeps your listings live.

What's included

What's Included in Our FBA Prep

01

FNSKU Labeling

We apply FNSKU labels and cover your existing barcode so every unit scans correctly at Amazon. Your FNSKU label is not the same as your product's UPC. Amazon requires its own scannable label, and we handle that so units aren't held up over barcode mix-ups.

02

Polybagging and Bundling

Suffocation-warning polybags, sets, and multipacks prepped to Amazon's requirements.

03

Expiration and Lot Labeling

Expiration dates printed in Amazon's required format, with first-expired-first-out handling.

04

Inspection and Quality Checks

Every unit is checked against Amazon's rules before it ships. Fewer rejected shipments, less time lost.

05

Kitting and Multipacks

Bundles and kits assembled and labeled as one sellable unit.

06

Dangerous Goods and Hazmat Prep

Aerosols, batteries, and certain supplements or cosmetics fall under Amazon's dangerous goods rules. They need extra labeling and paperwork before they ship in. We flag hazmat SKUs early and prep them to spec so they don't get held at receiving.

07

Forwarding to Amazon Fulfillment Centers

We pack according to your shipment plan, small parcel or LTL freight, and ship inbound to the fulfillment centers Amazon assigns.

Many sellers run FBA and DTC at the same time. RitePrep preps your FBA shipments and fulfills Shopify and DTC orders from the same Austin inventory pool. No split stock, no separate vendor to manage.

How it works

Prep & Label

We apply FNSKU labels, polybag, bundle, and add expiration or suffocation labels to Amazon's spec.

Every unit is verified to meet Amazon's requirements before it's packed, cutting rejected shipments.

04

Pack to Your Plan

We case-pack and box to your Amazon shipment plan, with accurate carton counts and labels.

05

Ship to Amazon

We ship inbound to the assigned Amazon fulfillment centers and send you tracking.

06

Sync & Restock
