Washington Ecommerce Order Fulfillment Services
Order fulfillment services for ecommerce brands.
Request a QuoteShipping and fulfillment logistics are a critical part of any ecommerce strategy, but many ecommerce businesses treat it as an afterthought. Yet, shipping is hardly an afterthought for customers. In fact, shipping options are one of the most important factors that customers consider when shopping online. Modern ecommerce customers expect fast shipping, and if you can’t provide it, they’ll likely take their business elsewhere.
So how do you offer faster shipping options without breaking the bank? If you’re only using a Washington fulfillment and distribution center, then shipping to customers on the other side of the county will be expensive. ShipBob can solve this problem for you.
Partner with ShipBob and you can store your products across our national network of fulfillment centers. If half your customers are on the West Coast and half on the East Coast, for instance, then you can split your inventory between our California and Pennsylvania fulfillment centers.
This cuts shipping rates and times, which allows you to offer faster, cheaper shipping options regardless of where your customers live.
Keep reading for a breakdown of all the ways that your business can benefit from outsourcing retail fulfillment to ShipBob.
Hear from a ShipBob Customer
Hear from a ShipBob customer who is based out of Washington whose order volume has more than tripled. She is now able to spend more time looking at the big picture, rather than doing things like stuffing envelopes all day, and says ShipBob has exceeded her expectations.
“When evaluating other 3PLs, ShipBob was by far the easiest, most reasonably priced option with the nicest, most genuine people. I’ve had nothing but good interactions with the ShipBob folks and their management team. My account manager walked me through everything, and I get genuine care with quick responses — they are really an extension of my team.”

Why choose ShipBob for Washington order fulfillment
Ecommerce businesses typically turn to fulfillment companies just to remove the burden of fulfillment. ShipBob aims to do much more than that. We help our clients offer a better customer experience, which translates into more sales and faster growth.
Ship from multiple fulfillment centers
The ability to ship from multiple fulfillment centers is a game-changer for small to mid-sized businesses that have a widespread customer base across the country. Now, you can offer faster shipping options to customers on the East Coast, the West Coast, the Midwest, or anywhere!
Get better shipping margins
It’s not just about speeding up delivery times; healthy shipping margins are also crucial to the long-term sustainability of your business. The shorter transit times that come with distributed inventory can lower inventory carrying costs significantly and make your shipping more cost-effective. One of our clients, luxury bath brand Bathorium, reduced shipping costs by 70% after partnering with ShipBob.
Boost conversions
Customers factor delivery times into their purchases, and if the shipping options are too slow they might jump ship. That’s how speeding up delivery times can help you convert more sales. Here’s an example: Sunglasses brand Rainbow OPTX partnered with ShipBob and started offer 2-Day Express Shipping. Their average order value for qualifying orders subsequently increased by 24%.

How to know when you’re ready to outsource fulfillment
There’s no one “right” time to hire a fulfillment company; a 3PL can benefit your business in numerous ways and in various phases of growth. Whether your bottleneck is the manpower available for ecommerce fulfillment, a lack of infrastructure, or simply a lack of desire to master fulfillment, a 3PL can help. Here are a few common problem scenarios that a 3PL can solve:
- You are launching a new business and need to ship orders quickly (and don’t want to go down the self-fulfillment route).
- Your business has grown steadily for years and you are having difficulty scaling fulfillment to keep up with order volume.
- You want to make your fulfillment process more accurate and efficient.
- Your warehouse is overpacked and disorganized, or your inventory counts don’t match.
