Whether you are launching Shopify Plus with 200 orders a month or running a mature DTC brand at 200,000 orders a month, the same operations team and infrastructure scales with you. No re-onboarding, no platform switches. Surge capacity for Black Friday, Cyber Monday, viral moments, and Shopify Plus product launches built in.
Whether you're a fast-growing Shopify DTC brand, a Shopify Plus enterprise, or an international brand entering the US via Shopify — our infrastructure scales from 200 orders a month to 200,000 without ever needing to switch 3PLs.
Shopify and Shopify Plus stores scaling past self-fulfillment capacity. Usually 200-5,000 orders/month founders looking to reclaim 10+ hours per week from packing and shipping themselves to refocus on product, marketing, and growth.
Shopify brands also selling on Amazon, TikTok Shop, Walmart, or wholesale who need one unified inventory pool across every channel — not five separate fulfillment accounts and a daily oversell crisis when a unit sells on Shopify and Amazon simultaneously.
Shopify stores running monthly subscriptions, replenishment programs, or recurring orders through Recharge, Bold, Loop Subscriptions, or other Shopify subscription apps — needing precision kit assembly, on-time billing-cycle shipping, and per-subscriber variant handling.
Brands on Shopify Plus running Shopify B2B, Shopify Markets, custom checkout extensions, or multi-storefront setups who need a 3PL that integrates with the full Shopify Plus stack and supports the volume requirements of enterprise-tier Shopify growth.
Overseas brands launching in the US market using Shopify as their storefront who need American warehousing 8 miles from the Port of LA, 2-day domestic delivery coverage, and a single 3PL that can also handle Amazon FBA prep, Walmart, and TikTok Shop from the same Shopify inventory.
Custom packaging, artisan products, limited editions, premium unboxing experiences, and high-touch fulfillment requirements that mass-market 3PLs treat as exceptions instead of as the standard. We treat boutique-level execution as the baseline, not the upgrade.
A Shopify 3PL (third-party logistics provider) is a company that stores your inventory, picks and packs your customer orders, and ships them directly to your customers — fully integrated with your Shopify store via native API connection. When a customer clicks "Buy" on your Shopify site, your 3PL receives the order automatically through real-time API sync, picks the items using scan-verified workflows, packs them to your branded specification, generates the shipping label through multi-carrier rate shopping, and dispatches the package same-day. You never touch a box. The customer receives a branded shipment within 1-2 days for West Coast addresses and 2-3 days for nationwide ground delivery.3PLCity is one of those partners — built specifically for Shopify and Shopify Plus brands. Our native Shopify app installs in 10 minutes from your Shopify admin, syncs inventory and orders in real time, and ships from our Los Angeles fulfillment center 8 miles from the Port of LA. Reach 96% of the United States in 2 business days via ground. No middleware platforms, no developer setup, no monthly software fees on top of fulfillment cost.
Most Shopify brands start by self-fulfilling — from a garage, spare room, or small warehouse. It works until it doesn't. The right time to move to a Shopify 3PL is different for every brand, but the signals are consistent: you're spending more than 10 hours per week packing and shipping orders yourself; you've had 3+ shipping errors or late shipments in the past 90 days; you cannot take vacations because someone has to ship orders; you're running out of storage space and considering a commercial warehouse lease; you're planning a product launch or marketing push that will spike order volume beyond what you can handle alone; you're expanding to Amazon, TikTok Shop, Walmart, or wholesale and need one unified inventory pool; you're entering the United States from overseas and need American warehousing; or your shipping costs feel too high and you have no leverage to negotiate carrier rates directly.
We use a native Shopify app that you install directly from your Shopify admin in under 10 minutes. Once connected, all orders, inventory, and tracking sync in real time via direct API integration — not through middleware platforms like ShipStation or ShipHero that charge $50-300/month and add an extra layer of integration failure between your store and your warehouse.
Orders received by 2 PM Pacific Standard Time ship the same business day. Orders received after 2 PM ship the following business morning. We maintain 99.8% scan-verified pick accuracy across millions of shipped Shopify orders. From our Los Angeles facility, 96% of the US population receives delivery within 2 business days via ground shipping.
Yes. Send us your boxes, tissue paper, branded mailers, custom inserts, thank-you cards, stickers, samples, scent inserts, or any other unboxing materials. We document your exact packing spec, store the materials in your dedicated inventory location, and apply them to every Shopify order per your standard. Photographed reference specs ensure consistency across every packer and every shift.
We provide a white-label branded RMA portal where Shopify customers initiate returns themselves with your store's logo and brand voice. Customers receive pre-paid return labels, ship back to our LA facility, and we inspect, grade (A/B/C/D), and restock Grade A units within 24 hours of receipt. Return data syncs back to your Shopify admin automatically. 85% average resellable recovery rate. Photo documentation available for chargeback defense.
