Yes! ShipBob can ship orders to New York from any of its fulfillment centers.  

Shipping zones are determined by the distance a package travels in transit. The closer the destination is to the point of origin, the lower the shipping zone. However, if a package has to travel a far distance to reach its end destination, it will be in a higher shipping zone. When packages have higher shipping zones, customers experience a longer delivery time and higher shipping costs.  

For brands fulfilling orders from New York, orders being shipped to customers in the Northeast US (e.g., New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Connecticut, etc.) will be in shipping zones 1-3. Customers receiving packages from New York in these shipping zones will experience lower shipping times. However, packages being sent to the West Coast of the US from New York will be in shipping zone 8.  

ShipBob can help brands distribute their inventory across the continental US so more shipments can arrive faster and at a lower cost, reducing their average shipping zone. By placing inventory closer to more end customers, you can provide faster and more affordable shipping.  

While many brands think they need a fulfillment center in their backyard, the truth is they should follow the data and pick a location based on where their customers are located to keep shipping costs and transit times as low as possible. For example, if your customers are distributed across several regions of the country, leveraging multiple locations instead of just one New York fulfillment center can help you deliver to more customers more efficiently.  

Once your order volume justifies it, you can split your inventory across multiple locations and have orders shipped from the closest location each time. ShipBob helps brands understand their data when getting started and provides analytics to customers on how their customer geographic locations change over time to show average savings, shipping zones, and transit time reductions if you change your fulfillment center locations.  

We are continuously evolving our warehouse locations, using data and feedback from our customers to decide where to add fulfillment centers. 

ShipBob has dozens of fulfillment centers across different regions of the US, including the Northeast near New York, Southwest, East Coast, West Coast, and Midwest. We also have several fulfillment centers in the UK, Europe, Canada, and Australia, and we are constantly expanding our geographic footprint. Leveraging this ever-growing network, ecommerce brands can handle US and international fulfillment through a single partner and platform. 

ShipBob supports international shipping from multiple global fulfillment centers, including those in the UK, Australia, Canada, and Europe. All inventory shipped internationally uses Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) service, with the merchant acting as Importer of Record. For specific destination details from US locations, contact ShipBob directly.

ShipBob uses a proprietary AI-powered transportation network engine to select the optimal carrier for each order. When you map shipping to aggregated options like Standard Ground or Expedited, ShipBob automatically chooses the best available carrier at label generation. This process applies across all US fulfillment centers, including those serving New York.
