Ship on Time has operated as a 3PL since 2015, when founder Serkan Yildiz started the business, and it is an Amazon SPN (Seller Partner Network) certified provider. Its Henderson, North Carolina, location reaches more than half the US population in 1 to 2 business days via UPS Ground, and DTC orders received before 2 PM ship the same day, while FBA prep typically clears in 24 to 48 hours. Beyond standard prep, the company has a niche in furniture e-commerce and offers subscription box fulfillment, custom packaging, and its own LTL and FTL transportation. Pricing is a la carte: FNSKU labeling at $0.40 per unit, polybagging from $0.25, bundling from $1.00. Note a $199 monthly account management fee waived at 500-plus shipments, plus a starting deposit of $500 to $8,000 by SKU count that applies toward future invoices. Bank transfers are free; card payments carry a 4% fee.
