Amazon FBA Prep Center near Port Newark, NJ
Your container lands, and the cartons in it are not shippable to a marketplace yet. Prep happens in the same building that receives the freight, so it is not moved twice.
Quick summary
- Nexus Warehouse Crossdock is at 99 Kero Rd, Carlstadt, NJ 07072, about 15 miles from Port Newark-Elizabeth.
- Prep covers labeling, polybagging, bundling, kitting, carton compliance and shipment coordination.
- Marketplaces handled are Amazon, Walmart, Etsy and Shopify.
- Prep pricing is custom, not a published unit rate: it depends on product, volume, packaging and marketplace requirements.
- Because prep is quoted per project, a quote needs the product, the volume and the marketplace before it means anything.
What FBA prep covers here
Labeling
FNSKU and marketplace labels applied to units or cartons, and shipment labels applied to the outbound boxes.
Polybagging and bundling
Units bagged or bundled where the marketplace requires it, including multi-packs assembled from loose units.
Kitting
Multiple SKUs assembled into a single sellable unit before it goes into the shipment.
Carton compliance
Cartons brought to the weight, dimension and labeling rules the marketplace applies before it will receive them.
Receiving and storage around prep
The same building receives the container, holds the freight and ships the prepared cartons, so nothing is trucked between vendors.
Shipment coordination
Prepared shipments routed out to the marketplace, or handed to your carrier.
Before and after prep
A container that arrives floor-loaded is first hand-unloaded and built onto pallets at $85 per built pallet, then prepped. Inventory between shipments sits in pallet storage in Carlstadt at the published daily or monthly rate.

There is no published per-unit prep rate, because prep cost moves with the product and the marketplace's rules rather than with pallet count.
