East Coast Prep & Ship is a Wilmington, Delaware center that does real Walmart WFS work, not just Amazon, with a WFS-specific labels-only tier at $0.85 per unit. Its pricing is tiered by volume across both channels: wholesale and private label run $0.80 to $1.10 per unit (labels-only $0.65 to $0.85), while online arbitrage runs $1.15 to $1.50. Shoe sellers get dedicated tiers, from $2.00 to $2.50 per pair on OA. There is a $75 one-time signup fee and a 200-unit monthly minimum to avoid a $50 inactivity charge, with a 20-unit minimum on outbound FBA shipments. Bin storage is $0.50 per cubic foot per month or $40 per pallet, and container receiving is $375 for a 20-foot or $675 for a 40-foot. It handles oversized, fragile, and apparel items and sits a few hours from several Amazon fulfillment centers. No Google rating was on file at our last check.
