Montana Prep Solutions

Helena, MT, US5.0(4)
Tax-free MTNo minimum

Based in Helena, Montana Prep Solutions leans hard on its sales-tax-free state, telling sellers the savings on inventory alone normally covers the prep bill. Founded in 2021, it runs an Amazon-FBA-only workflow: clients grant Seller Central inventory and FBA shipment permissions so the team can create shipments directly, then track incoming units on account-specific spreadsheets by ASIN, quantity, and carrier tracking. Pricing is all-in per unit on a volume ladder, starting at $1.49 for 1 to 200 units a month and stepping down to $0.85 above 10,001 units, with receiving, inspection, label removal, and core labels included plus 14 days of free storage. There is no minimum, and turnaround runs 48 to 72 hours. It suits arbitrage, wholesale, and private-label sellers shipping small-to-medium FBA volumes who want predictable per-unit costs.

What sets them apart

  • Explicitly markets Montana tax-free status as offsetting prep costs: 'the savings alone normally pays for our services'
  • Requires clients to grant Amazon Seller Central 'Manage inventory/add products' and 'Manage FBA shipments' permissions to montanaprepsolutions@gmail.com for shipment creation - Amazon-integrated workflow
  • Uses account-specific spreadsheets for clients to track incoming shipments (ASIN, qty, carrier tracking, expected arrival)
  • First 14 days of storage included free with every prep order; volume pricing tiers down to $0.85/unit at 10,001+ units/month
  • Specializes in small to medium size shipments; Amazon FBA exclusively - no Walmart, no DTC, no other marketplaces mentioned
