Before you request a quote
Know the cost. Check the fit. Plan your first shipment.
Start with a small shipment or an established operation. There is no minimum volume. Tell us what you sell so we can confirm the handling, space and shipping you actually need.
What will my first month cost?
Example: 500 single-item orders under 5 lb × $2.00 full-service handling = $1,000. At $0.25 per mailer add $125; two full billable pallet-months add $50 and one inbound pallet adds $20. Total: $1,195 BEFORE postage, returns or extra work.
Examples use standard storage in the first three months. Long-stay pallet rates are $28/month in months 3–6 and $32/month after six months. Your written quote separates receiving, storage, handling, materials and shipping. Build your own estimate.
Why are there two handling prices?
Under 5 lb, Lean FBA is $0.50/unit and Lean FBM is $1.75/order when goods arrive pre-packed and ready to label. Full-service handling is $0.75/FBA unit or $2.00/FBM order; materials and postage are separate. These are service tiers, not automatic volume discounts.
Heavier items use different weight bands; over 15 lb or bulky items need a written quote. See the complete rate card.
Can you handle my products and platform?
Share your product type, packed dimensions and weight, sales platform and expected volume. Small batches and returns-only enquiries are welcome. Batteries, liquids, food, supplements, temperature-sensitive, hazardous or oversized items need acceptance and handling requirements confirmed before you ship.
For Shopify, Amazon, Walmart or another platform such as Amboras, tell us how orders and inventory are exchanged. The team confirms the connection or file workflow before onboarding; a platform name alone does not guarantee a supported integration.
How do I send inventory?
- Send your SKU list, dimensions, weights and carton/pallet count.
- Receive the written scope, rates and product-acceptance confirmation.
- Confirm account setup, labeling and receiving instructions with the team before dispatch.
- Send shipment details and tracking; agree the first prep job or order workflow.
Receiving location: 6117 Long Dr, Houston, TX 77087. Confirm inbound instructions before sending goods.
What about shipping and storage dimensions?
For a shipping estimate, send origin and destination ZIP codes, packed dimensions, weight, parcel count and desired delivery speed. Handling prices do not include carrier postage. Storage is charged only by carton or pallet. Bin and shelf storage is included in our standard pick-and-pack rate, with no separate charge. Send product dimensions and quantities so the team can confirm usable space, availability and the applicable carton or pallet storage rate in writing.
After you enquire: a real person from our Houston team replies within one business day, confirms any missing details and sends itemized pricing. You can ask for a written quote without booking a sales call. Unsure of volume? Select “Not sure yet” in the quote form.
How Amazon fulfillment works with KAK
We run your Amazon FBA prep and FBM order fulfillment out of the same Houston warehouse, on the same KAK WMS platform you can check anytime. This works the same whether you sell pure FBA, pure FBM, or a mix of both under one account.
- You send inventory to Houston. Ship cartons or pallets to our 32,000 sqft climate-controlled facility at 6117 Long Dr. Receiving runs $20/pallet ($5/carton).
- We prep, pick, and pack. FBA-bound units get FNSKU labeled, polybagged, and cartonized at $0.75/unit. FBM orders get picked, packed, and shipped at $2.00–$4.00 (custom over 15 lb) depending on weight.
- Orders ship on schedule. Anything in before our 2pm CT cutoff, Monday–Saturday, ships or gets prepped the same day. Check stock counts anytime in the KAK WMS inventory dashboard.
Amazon FBA prep pricing
Full-service FBA handling for units under 5 lb is $0.75/unit, including FNSKU labeling and prep labor. Materials are separate: polybag $0.20/unit and bubble wrap $0.20/unit when needed. Receiving, storage and outbound freight are separate. Lean label-ready units start at $0.50; heavier units use the published weight bands.
| FBA prep service | Rate | What's included |
|---|---|---|
| FNSKU labeling, polybagging, bubble wrap, standard cartonization | $0.75 / unit under 5 lb | Handling and FNSKU labeling; materials billed separately. |
Kitting, bundling, subscription-box assembly, and custom inserts or thank-you cards are available but custom-quoted — send us specs and you'll have a number in 24 hours. See more on our FBA prep page.
Amazon FBM order fulfillment pricing
FBM orders are picked, packed, and shipped at a flat per-order rate based on weight. Packaging materials are billed at cost — standard mailers from $0.25, polybags $0.20, never marked up.
| Order weight | Rate per order |
|---|---|
| Up to 5 lb | $2.00 |
| 5–8 lb | $2.75 |
| 8–15 lb | $4.00 |
| over 15 lb | Custom quote |
It's the same rate card whether the order came from Amazon FBM, Shopify, TikTok Shop, Walmart, eBay, BigCommerce, WooCommerce, Etsy, or Magento — one WMS, one price list, across every channel you run.
What a month of Amazon fulfillment actually costs
Take a mid-size seller sending 1,000 units into FBA prep, running 300 FBM orders under 5 lb each, and holding 10 pallets of reserve stock for the full month:
| Line item | Volume | Rate | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| FBA prep | 1,000 units | $0.75/unit | $750 |
| FBM orders | 300 orders | $2.00/order | $600 |
| Pallet storage | 10 pallets, full month | two $25 months/pallet | $500 |
| Receiving | 5 pallets inbound | $20/pallet ($5/carton) | $100 |
| Total | $1,950 |
No setup fee, no monthly minimum, no contract — that total is start to finish. Run your own numbers with a 24-hour quote or check the full rate card on our price list.
Storage, receiving, and returns for your Amazon inventory
Reserve stock, FBA overflow, and returned units sit in the same climate-controlled Houston warehouse as everything else we run. There's no separate rate card for "Amazon inventory" versus anything else on the floor — it's the same storage, receiving, and returns pricing across every channel.
| Service | Rate |
|---|---|
| Pallet storage (climate-controlled) | $25/pallet, billed monthly — you pay for the fraction of the month you actually use |
| Receiving | $20/pallet ($5/carton) |
| Returns processing | $1.50/return, inspection included |
There's no setup fee. See the full mechanics on our storage page or the broader warehousing service.
What sellers ask before they move their Amazon account
These are the questions that show up in almost every RFQ we get from Amazon sellers evaluating a switch, whether they're moving 500 units off a fulfillment center that outgrew them or launching a new SKU straight into FBA. Here are the numbers, upfront, instead of a sales call to get them.
- Minimums or required spend? None. Start with a single unit, a single SKU.
- Setup, onboarding, or integration fees? None. Getting started with KAK costs nothing.
- Contract or cancellation penalties? No contract — month-to-month.
- Peak-season surcharges? None, including Q4.
- Insurance on my inventory? Covered up to $500,000 per occurrence; we're liable for our own handling errors.
- Lot numbers and expiration dates? Tracked in KAK WMS for SKUs that need it.
- Are carrier rates marked up? No. USPS, UPS, and FedEx labels pass through at discounted rates, at cost.
- What if I also sell off Amazon? The same $2.00–$4.00 (custom over 15 lb) fulfillment rate covers Shopify, TikTok Shop, Walmart, eBay, and more orders through the same WMS dashboard.
No minimums, no setup fees, no contracts. Rates above are locked through Q1 2027 — if what you're billed doesn't match what's published here, tell us. Compare against our full pricing page or start a conversation directly.
