Many major retailers allow businesses to sell their products on their shelves, opening up a gateway to unparalleled business growth. However, each of these retailers has unique packaging regulations that differ significantly in detail and complexity. 

The challenge for many businesses is that they do not always have the most up-to-date information and packaging technology to meet these requirements. This is where partnering with a 3PL fulfillment provider, such as 18 Wheels Warehousing & Trucking, can pay off immediately.

Packaging Requirements from Major Retailers

Each major retailer has specific packing requirements for shipments delivered to their distribution center. For instance, Amazon has a few requirements, such as including Amazon SKU, wrapping individual items separately, meeting packaging size requirements, and using correct packaging materials.

For businesses that have never shipped to a retail distribution center, determining what you can use for packaging can quickly become confusing, as there are different details online about labeling, size, and weight restrictions.
