Scale is the headline at Shipping-and-Handling, which runs more than 233,000 square feet across four warehouses: three in Jacksonville, Florida at 40k, 75k, and 55k square feet, plus a 63k square-foot site in Sugar Land, Texas. Operating since roughly 2018, it positions itself as a full distribution operation as much as a prep center, with cross docking, kitting, EDI processing, B2B and B2C fulfillment, discounted LTL trucking, and even an optional virtual office add-on. For Amazon sellers the prep core is FNSKU labeling, QC, and carton content labels. Pricing is a la carte: $2.00 per order, $0.50 per item picked, $2.50 per master carton, with hang tags, labels, kitting, and receiving billed separately and storage as low as $25 per pallet per month. There is no setup fee and no order minimum beyond a $75 monthly admin fee. Best suited to wholesale and private-label sellers with real distribution volume.
