Summary:
Walmart is stepping up their game with several major updates aimed at making life easier for its sellers.
From expanded Walmart Fulfillment Services (WFS) to waived storage fees and new shipping functionalities, here’s what you need to capitalize on these changes.
Fulfill Bigger & Heavier Items with Ease ๐๏ธโโ๏ธ
Walmart has just supercharged its Fulfillment Services by expanding the weight and size limitations for products.
Sellers can now ship products weighing up to 500 lbs with maximum dimensions of 120″ x 105″ x 93″. This change opens up an entirely new range of products you can offer, from furniture to large electronics and more. It’s time to think big!
No More Peak Season Storage Fees ๐
Christmas came early for Walmart sellers! For a limited time, Walmart is waiving peak season storage fees. Send your inventory to Walmart’s Fulfillment Centers by October 1st, and you’ll benefit from the same low fees year-round.
This offer is an excellent opportunity to stock up for the holiday season without worrying about additional costs.
Bulk Printing & Discounted Shipping ๐โ๏ธ
Say goodbye to the tedious process of buying and printing individual shipping labels. Walmart’s Seller Center now offers a bulk printing feature for FedEx and USPS shipping labels.
Not only does this streamline the shipping process, but you can also compare service rates across carriers for multiple orders simultaneously. It’s all about efficiency and cost-saving with the new “Ship with Walmart” feature.
