What are the box requirements for Amazon FBA first leg?
1. Use a six-sided hard packaging box with a complete lid.
2. Each box in the shipment must have its own Amazon Logistics shipment label (printed from the Shipment Queue).
3. Each pallet requires four labels, one at the top center of each side.
4. When using large cartons to send multiple original packaging products to Amazon fulfillment centers, please affix a unique shipping label on the large cartons used to transport the products.
5. If using a used box, remove any old shipping labels or other markings.
6. Use strong tape designed for delivery.
7. After packing the box, shake it gently. The contents of the box should not move when shaken.
8. Goods packaged in cartons should only contain one PO. If a carton contains goods from multiple POs, then make sure that one carton can only contain goods from a maximum of 5 POs.
9. The maximum weight of the carton packaging shall not exceed 22.5kg (50 pounds). If the weight of a single item sold exceeds 22.5kg (50 pounds), a "Team Lift" label must be clearly posted on the carton to indicate that a team is required to operate it. If the weight of the box exceeds 45kg (100 pounds), a "Mech Lift" label must be clearly posted on the carton to indicate that a machine is required to operate it.
10. The weight of cartons containing jewelry and watches cannot exceed 18kg (40 pounds).
11. Any side of the carton must not exceed 63.5cm, unless the size of the single item sold exceeds 63.5cm. If any side of the carton exceeds 63.5cm, the carton needs to be placed on a 1mX1.25m pallet, unless the size of the carton for the single-unit sale exceeds the size of the standard pallet.
12. Cartons and packaging materials (such as cushioning, fillers) must adequately protect the goods during transportation. If the goods are packaged in packaging materials that are not accepted by the Amazon fulfillment center, the goods may be rejected or additional packaging fees may be charged.
13. Use large-sized cushioning, such as air pillows, whole sheets of paper, foam paper or bubble wrap, instead of loose materials.
14. The size of the carton should be chosen to ensure that there is minimum free space in the carton after the goods are placed in it. Space utilization can also be maximized by packing multiple items in one carton.
15. Cartons cannot be tied with packing tape, elastic band, adhesive tape or additional packing tape. Do not use large staples or nylon fiber tape as they pose a safety hazard to warehouse colleagues.
16. Multiple cartons that are identified as being sold together (e.g. sets) weighing more than 45 kg must be placed on a single pallet (one pallet per item).
17. If the weight of a single piece of carton goods (such as furniture) exceeds 45 kg, it needs to be palletized. Pallet-sized boxes (also known as "Gaylords") are not permitted.
18. Point-of-sale containers commonly used to display merchandise (e.g., open-front boxes or boxes without lids) may not be used.
