A family-owned business operating 8+ years in Central Montana, Central MT Prep and Ship pairs the state sales-tax-free advantage with explicit Walmart Fulfillment Services support confirmed in named WFS language on its homepage. It spans more channels than most owner-run shops, adding FBM, Shopify DTC, eBay and two-step dropshipping plus freight forwarding to standard FBA prep. Per-unit pricing is $1.00 under 1,000 a month, $0.90 above 1,000, and $0.80 for wholesale runs of 100+ of the same SKU. Add-ons include poly bags from $0.20, bundles from $0.35, a fragile fee of $0.10 per square foot, and FBM at $2.25 per unit dropping to $2.00 at volume. A nice touch is 5-box optimized shipping at no extra charge. There is a $50 one-time registration fee, and invoicing is weekly with no shipments released against unpaid invoices, suiting WFS and multichannel sellers who want tax-free prep.
