Red Stag Fulfillment review

Red Stag Fulfillment targets the orders many 3PLs avoid: products bigger than a toaster or heavier than 10 pounds. It says it has shipped over a billion pounds of goods and that it negotiates hardest with carriers on additional handling and oversize surcharges and on the dimensional divisor, which is where big items lose money. It runs parcel, pallet and white glove D2C fulfillment, retail and B2B with EDI and LTL or FTL freight, kitting and returns, and Amazon services such as FBA prep, FBM and Vendor Central, from a flagship facility in Sweetwater, Tennessee and a western site in Salt Lake City. Red Stag guarantees zero shrink, zero mispicks and zero late shipments and pays to make it right when it misses. It is FDA registered and supports serial and lot tracking. Pricing is entirely custom: Red Stag says it does not publish a standard rate card for receiving, storage or order fulfillment, so plan for a quoting process.
