How Much Does a 3PL Cost in Atlanta?
At our Atlanta-area warehouse, 3PL clients pay a one-time $650 setup fee and $3.00 per parcel order, with label processing included. Prep, returns and 2-step clients pay no setup fee, and FBA and WFS prep runs from $1.50 down to $0.85 per unit by monthly volume. Every other 3PL rate is on our full rate table.
Every service is deducted from your balance as it happens and itemized in your account. Prep clients use the Growth plan or higher. Receiving, storage and every other 3PL line are on the 3PL pricing page.
What Does a 3PL Company Do?
A 3PL (third-party logistics company) runs your warehouse work for you: it receives your inventory, stores it, and picks, packs and ships your orders. At our warehouse in the Atlanta area, Ecom Circles does that for Amazon and Walmart sellers, and also preps FBA and WFS shipments, runs 2-step dropshipping and processes returns.
Here is what our Atlanta fulfillment center runs for you, each step tracked in your dashboard.

We receive, store, pick, pack and ship your Amazon FBM and Walmart orders, with every charge itemized.
3PL fulfillment→FBA prep
FNSKU labels, poly bags and FBA shipment labels, then your units go into Amazon's fulfillment centers.
FBA prep→Pick and pack
Each order picked, packed and labeled at the warehouse, with tracking synced back.
Pick and pack→2-step dropshipping
Your supplier ships to us, and we forward each order to your buyer.
2-step dropshipping→Is There an FBA Prep Center in Atlanta?
Yes. Ecom Circles runs FBA prep at its warehouse in the Atlanta area, for Amazon sellers anywhere in the US. Prep is all-in per unit, from $1.50 down to $0.85 by monthly volume, covering receiving, inspection, FNSKU labels, poly bagging and FBA shipment labels. Freight into Amazon is billed separately. Prep clients pay no setup fee.
The rate steps down on its own as your monthly volume grows. The bands, label-only prep and storage are on our Amazon FBA prep service page; Walmart sellers get the same rates for WFS prep.
How Our Atlanta 3PL Warehouse Works
From your supplier's truck to your buyer's door, every step shows up in your Ecom Circles dashboard.
- 1
Receive
Create the PO in your Ecom Circles dashboard before the truck ships. We check the delivery against it and mark each item sellable or damaged.
- 2
Store
Checked-in stock goes to its shelf location and syncs to your Ecom Circles software automatically.
- 3
Prep
Units bound for Amazon FBA or Walmart WFS are labeled, bagged and sent in on a shipment you can track.
- 4
Pick and pack
Your Amazon FBM and Walmart orders route from your dashboard to the warehouse, and we pick, pack and label each one.
- 5
Ship
The carrier collects the parcel and tracking syncs back to the marketplace.
- 6
Returns
Customers can return to the warehouse. We inspect each return and restock or dispose of it based on condition.
