الأسئلة الشائعة

Why does Amazon split my shipments?+

Amazon distributes inventory across fulfillment centers to optimize delivery speed to العملاء nationwide. You can use the Inventory Placement Service ($0.30/unit standard, $0.40/unit oversize) to send everything to one location, but it costs more.

How do I minimize inbound shipping costs?+

Use Amazon's partnered carriers (discounted rates), optimize box dimensions/weight to avoid dimensional weight surcharges, send full truckload quantities when possible, and time shipments to avoid peak season surcharges.
