Inspection for FBA compliance

Inventory headed for Amazon FBA has a long journey to make and it is oftentimes not perfect. By using a third-party prep warehouse you can catch damages and issues with your inventory before to forwarding it to Amazon FBA which allows you to fix your inventory at a lower rate and avoid fba compliance fees. At River Source Logistics we always do a visual outer inspection on inventory that arrive at our warehouse. During this inspection, our team can identify damaged boxes, damaged pallets, pierced cartons or anything could have affected the units inside. As soon as anything is discovered at this inspection we notify the client with images and options to resolve the issue.

Our initial outer inspection upon receiving does however not catch any issues with units inside undamaged cases. A more in depth inspection is needed to identify such issues
