Onboarding · How it works

Outsourcing fulfilment is simple

Connect your sales channels, send us your stock, and we handle the picking, packing and dispatch of every order from our Western Sydney warehouse — so you can focus on growing your brand instead of running a warehouse.

The process

From sign-up to same-day dispatch

1

Connect your store

We connect to Shopify, Amazon, eBay, WooCommerce and 100+ other platforms. Orders flow into our system automatically — no manual exports.

2

Send us your stock

Ship your inventory to our Western Sydney facility. We receive, count and quality-check every shipment, then log it into real-time inventory.

3

We store & manage it

Products are stored securely with live stock visibility. Set low-stock alerts and reorder with confidence, knowing exactly what is on hand.

4

We pick, pack & ship

Our team picks accurately, packs to your brand standards and dispatches with the best-value carrier. Orders before 12pm AEST ship same day.

5

Track, report & return

You and your customers get live tracking; you get reporting; and we manage returns end-to-end — receiving, inspecting and restocking.

What powers it

The capabilities behind every order

Integrations, inventory visibility and returns — the pieces that keep dispatch fast and accurate.

Automatic Order Sync

As soon as a customer checks out, the order lands in our warehouse queue — no double entry, no delays. Native integrations keep orders and inventory in sync across every channel.

FAQ

How OutBox3PL Fulfilment Works FAQs

How long does it take to onboard and connect my store to OutBox3PL?
Onboarding is built to go live in days, not months. Connecting your sales channel is usually the quickest part — direct integrations with Shopify, Amazon, eBay and WooCommerce take most sellers under an hour on their side, with orders then flowing into our warehouse queue automatically. The bigger variable is your stock: once it arrives at our Western Sydney warehouse and we have received, counted and shelved it, you are ready to dispatch. Most businesses are shipping their first orders within five to seven business days of stock landing. You can see the full path on our getting started page.
What do I need to prepare before sending you my inventory?
The two things that speed everything up are an accurate SKU list — with dimensions, weights and any handling notes — and a packing list that matches what is physically in the shipment. Flag anything special up front, such as fragile items, batch or expiry tracking, branded packaging or custom inserts, so we shelve and pick it correctly from day one. None of this has to be perfect to start a conversation, but the more you share, the faster we can map your products to the right storage and pricing.
How do you receive and check my stock when it arrives at the warehouse?
You can ship inventory to our Clyde warehouse via any carrier, as pallets, cartons or loose units. On arrival we receive each shipment, count it and quality-check it against your packing list, then log every unit into real-time inventory and send a receiving confirmation by SKU. From that point your stock sits across our 50,000+ pick locations with live counts, so you always know exactly what is on hand and when to reorder.
What happens to an order once a customer checks out on my store?
The moment a customer checks out, the order lands in our warehouse dispatch queue automatically — there is no manual export or double entry. Our team picks the items from their locations, checks them against the order, packs them to your brand standards and selects the best-value carrier for that parcel. Any order ready before the 12pm AEST cut-off ships the same business day; anything after the cut-off goes out the next business day with the same accuracy checks applied.
How do I track orders and inventory once I am live with OutBox3PL?
You get live stock and order visibility across every connected channel, and a tracking number is pushed to each customer automatically so they can follow their parcel to the door. You can set low-stock alerts to reorder with confidence, and returns are handled end to end — we receive, inspect and restock eligible units, then update your live inventory so sellable stock is back on the shelf. As you add channels, SKUs and markets, the same system and the same team scale with you rather than you rebuilding your fulfilment.
