BREAKING: Amazon Cut Off AWD for Any Unit Above 18 x 14 x 8 Inches or 20 lbs

The new Amazon AWD size limits are now live: any unit above 18 inches long, 14 inches wide, 8 inches high, or 20 pounds is no longer eligible for AWD. These Amazon AWD product requirements apply to AWD only, not FBA. Existing Amazon AWD oversize inventory already sitting in AWD is grandfathered and can keep auto replenishing into FBA until depleted, but it still accrues storage fees and new shipments are blocked at creation. FBMFulfillment can replace that lost buffer with domestic storage, prep, and our exclusive FBA Replenishment Module feeding FBA and every other channel from one pool.

The National Warehouse Myth: Why More Locations Can Be a Massive Hidden Cost

Don’t be fooled by the "national footprint" sales pitch. While splitting inventory across multiple warehouses sounds efficient, for most brands it’s a "safety stock cash trap." This post exposes the hidden costs of multi-node strategies: double receiving fees, internal replenishment freight, and the dreaded split-order disaster that erases profit margins. Unless you ship 75-pound weight benches, a centralized, high-performance hub like our Florida facility is the smarter move. It simplifies inventory, maximizes cash flow, and provides concierge-level service that massive warehouse networks simply can’t match.

The Ultimate Guide to Post De Minimis Fulfillment: How to Pivot Before Your Margins Vanish
