Need to Send Pallets to an Amazon Fulfilment Centre?
Pallet2Ship provides pallet delivery services for Amazon FBA sellers, helping businesses move stock into Amazon fulfilment centres across the UK and, where service options are available, fulfilment centres outside Great Britain.
When you book an Amazon FBA pallet delivery through Pallet2Ship, you can compare eligible services online, choose a carrier option that can deliver into Amazon, and provide the Amazon booking details the carrier needs to arrange delivery.
Amazon FBA deliveries work differently from standard commercial pallet deliveries. Amazon requires specific shipment information and pallet labels, sets its own preparation standards, and deliveries usually have to be booked in with the fulfilment centre before they arrive.
What Is Amazon FBA?
Amazon FBA stands for Fulfilment by Amazon. It allows sellers to send products to Amazon fulfilment centres, where Amazon stores the stock and handles picking, packing, delivery, customer service and returns for eligible orders.
For sellers, FBA can reduce the work involved in managing storage and fulfilment in-house. Instead of dispatching every order yourself, you send stock to Amazon in advance, and Amazon fulfils eligible orders once the products sell.
Amazon FBA Pallet Delivery with Pallet2Ship
Pallet2Ship helps Amazon sellers arrange pallet deliveries into fulfilment centres using eligible pallet services.
This is useful for sellers moving larger volumes of stock that travel better on pallets than as individual parcels. Pallet delivery can be used for UK fulfilment centre deliveries and, where service options are available, selected fulfilment centres outside Great Britain.
Not every pallet service can deliver into Amazon, so it is important to choose a service marked as suitable for Amazon deliveries during the quote and booking process.
How to Book a Pallet Delivery to Amazon
To arrange an Amazon FBA pallet delivery through Pallet2Ship:
- Go to the Quote & Book page.
- Enter your collection and delivery postcodes.
- Select the pallet size you need, or enter the pallet dimensions and weight for international shipments.
- Review the list of available services.
- Choose a service that can deliver into Amazon. These services are marked with a green Amazon icon.
- Complete the general booking details, including the full collection and delivery addresses and contact information.
- On page three, Options, add the Amazon shipment details listed below. Without these details, delivery to Amazon cannot be arranged.
- Complete the booking and make sure your pallets are prepared and labelled correctly before collection.
Once the booking is complete and the required Amazon information has been provided, the details are passed to the carrier so the Amazon delivery appointment can be arranged.
Amazon Details Required During Booking
On the Options page, you will be asked for:
- Unit count — the number of individual items you are sending. These go inside boxes, also called cartons.
- Carton count — the number of boxes used to pack those items.
- Pallet count — the number of pallets you are delivering to Amazon.
- Vendor's name — the name of the company the goods are coming from.
- Purchase order — the unique identifier Amazon uses to track and manage orders placed with suppliers for products sold on its platform.
- FBA reference — the Amazon reference that identifies your inbound FBA shipment.
Enter these details exactly as they appear in your Amazon account. Missing or incorrect information can delay the delivery booking or cause problems when the shipment reaches the fulfilment centre.
Sending Pallets to Amazon Outside Great Britain
For deliveries to an Amazon fulfilment centre outside Great Britain, you provide the same Amazon shipment details as above, plus customs information.
The Pallet2Ship system can help you create the Commercial Invoice during booking, and you must make sure your goods, values and customs details are declared correctly.
Two points are especially important for international Amazon FBA shipments:
Carriers usually move these shipments under DDP, or Delivered Duty Paid, so the seller is responsible for duties and taxes.
The Amazon EORI number is not normally requested.
Before booking, check that your Amazon shipment plan, customs information, delivery details and receiver information are correct.
Amazon FBA Pallet Requirements
Amazon fulfilment centres have strict pallet and labelling requirements, and Amazon may reject consignments that are not prepared correctly. This can lead to delays, extra charges and failed delivery.
If this is your first FBA pallet shipment, check your pallets against the points below before booking, and always confirm the current requirements in your Amazon account for the fulfilment centre and shipment type.
- Pallet base. For a UK fulfilment centre, use a UK standard four-way-access pallet measuring 1200 mm x 1000 mm. For a European fulfilment centre, use a 1200 mm x 800 mm Euro four-way-access pallet.
- Condition. Use a strong pallet base in good condition. Pallets must be intact, with no breaks or damage that could affect their structural integrity.
- Heat treatment. Pallets should be heat-treated and ISPM-15 compliant where required. This is especially important for international movements where wood packaging rules apply.
- Height and weight. As a guide, a loaded pallet should not exceed 1.7 m, or 170 cm, in height or 1000 kg in weight, and individual cartons should not exceed 30 kg. Always confirm the current limits in your Amazon account before dispatch.
- Stacking and overhang. Stack cartons safely and evenly, and keep the load within the footprint of the pallet. Nothing should overhang the pallet edges.
- Wrapping. Wrap each pallet securely in clear stretch wrap. Amazon may reject pallets wrapped in black or other coloured shrink wrap.
- Labels. Attach the Amazon pallet labels generated in your Amazon account to the outside of the wrapped pallet before collection. Amazon may refuse or delay unlabelled pallets.
Delivery Appointments and Amazon Booking Slots
Amazon FBA pallet deliveries are not the same as standard deliveries to a business address.
In many cases, the carrier has to arrange a delivery appointment or slot with the fulfilment centre before the goods can be delivered.
This means the final delivery date can depend on the slot Amazon makes available, not only on the speed of the pallet service you choose. A premium service may speed up collection and transit, but delivery into Amazon can still depend on Amazon’s booking availability and receiving schedule.
How to Reduce the Risk of Amazon Rejecting Your Pallet
Amazon may reject or delay pallets that do not meet its requirements.
Common issues include:
- Incorrect pallet size
- Damaged or weak pallet base
- Pallets that are too high or too heavy
- Cartons overhanging the pallet
- Unstable stacking
- Missing Amazon labels
- Incorrect FBA reference or purchase order details
- Black or coloured shrink wrap
- Damaged cartons
- Goods that do not match the Amazon shipment plan
- Missing customs documents for international deliveries
Before collection, check your Amazon shipment details carefully and make sure each pallet is packed, wrapped and labelled correctly.
