We’re currently storing inventory in some of ShipBob’s Southern California and Chicago facilities, which means that when we receive an order destined for someplace like New York, we don’t have to ship it from all the way across the country. By shortening the transit distance, we get to shorten transit time and reduce the amount of pollution produced in the shipping process. Even in the final stages of fulfillment and last-mile delivery, ShipBob enables us to stay true to our mission!

Inventory Distribution & Placement

With ShipBob, you’re not just limited to the location you’ve searched for. While placement is your choice, we can help you find the most optimal inventory split to be closer to your customers and get data-driven fulfillment center location recommendations over time to improve delivery speeds and reduce shipping costs.

ShipBob’s Inventory Placement Program in the US allows high-volume brands to send inventory to one location. Then ShipBob does the rest — from choosing ideal locations and distributing your stock, to proactively rebalancing your inventory levels — giving you time back, lowering your inbound freight costs, and unlocking more affordable 2-day shipping.

ShipBob is a drastic difference from our last 3PL. They listen and quickly get their customers’ needs live in their software. It feels like a really honest and fruitful relationship. I didn’t have to learn different platforms or deal with support representatives at different companies.

Running your own warehouse, you have to go out and hire very experienced people, invest in equipment, build in automation – and often, you’re wasting a lot of time, energy, resources, and human capital for a sub-par result. Why do that when a partner like ShipBob exists, and makes fulfillment so easy at a fair price?

Our business’s core strength is marketing; we’re not experts in logistics, so we knew that would never be our internal competitive advantage. So why not outsource logistics to the best people in the industry, who know what they’re doing, and focus our energy on what we’re great at? By partnering with ShipBob, we’re doing just that.

The deciding factor that sold us on ShipBob was price. International fulfillment can be incredibly expensive, but ShipBob was cheaper than our old provider. ShipBob’s software was also much easier to use than our previous provider’s, and gave us a better picture of what was going on with our orders. Even from overseas, it gave us the visibility and control we would expect from a provider in our backyard.

On Black Friday I woke up with a smile on my face because I knew our orders were going out smoothly. This BFCM has been incredible for us. We couldn’t have done it without ShipBob. One of our long-time customers placed an order on Black Friday and her order was delivered that Monday. She couldn’t believe that her order arrived so fast. We’re so happy with the results – ShipBob made it a great success.

Does ShipBob have a fulfillment center in Illinois?

Yes! Not only is ShipBob headquartered in Illinois, but it has several fulfillment centers in the state, along with dozens of other fulfillment centers across the US and world. 

Where can ShipBob ship to from its Illinois fulfillment centers?

ShipBob offers several domestic and international shipping options from its Illinois fulfillment centers. Brands have the ability to ship to over 200 counties from ShipBob’s Illinois fulfillment centers. 

How do shipping zones affect me in Illinois?

Shipping zones are determined by the distance it takes for the package to travel. In Illinois, customers in the Midwest will experience a faster shipping time since the order is shipping to zones 1-3. However, customers farther away (on the West Coast, for example) will have longer shipping times since they’re considered to be located in shipping zones 7 and 8 when shipping from Illinois. 

What’s the address of ShipBob’s fulfillment center in Illinois?

ShipBob has several fulfillment centers in the greater Chicago, Illinois area (see an up-to-date list of ShipBob locations here). ShipBob also has numerous fulfillment centers located throughout the rest of the United States and the world. 

What’s the benefit of an Illinois fulfillment center?

Chicago is the third largest metropolitan city in the United States, home to 2 airports, including O’Hare, one of the world’s busiest airports, and a bustling transportation hub with many national and regional carriers – all making Illinois a great location for a fulfillment center.  

ShipBob’s Illinois fulfillment centers are centrally located in the most populous area of the state in order to quickly fulfill orders for customers in major Midwest and East Coast cities like Minneapolis, Cincinnati, Philadelphia, New York City, and Boston in addition to Chicago. ShipBob works with the regional carrier, United Delivery Service (UDS) in order to deliver same-day and next-day parcels. 

What is the population of Illinois?

According to the US Census Bureau, Illinois has a total population of over 12.6 million people. The population of Chicago, the state’s largest city, is over 2.6 million (with close to 9 million in the greater Chicagoland). Due to the large concentration of people and major metropolitan hub, Illinois is a great location for a fulfillment center. This allows brands to reach customers in and around Illinois easier and cost-effectively.
