Units flagged unfulfillable or stranded at Amazon are paid-for product earning nothing. ProShip3PL turns them back into stock: your removal orders land at our Miami dock, each unit gets graded and diagnosed — bad label, missing prep, crushed packaging — then relabeled, re-prepped or repackaged and returned to FBA sellable. Where re-entry doesn't pencil out, the same units ship as FBM orders from our racks instead.
Unfulfillable counts have a way of being ignored: a few units here, a customer return there, nothing worth a project. Then one day the report shows hundreds of units — capital you already spent — generating storage cost instead of revenue, with a disposal clock quietly running on some of them. That's usually the day we get the call.
The first thing we'll tell you costs nothing: check whether your problem is actually physical. A surprising share of stranded inventory is a listing-side snag — a pricing alert, a detail-page suppression, a relist button nobody pressed. We'd rather point you to the report that fixes it free than receive a removal order that didn't need to exist.
When the units themselves are the problem, the path runs through our dock. Removal shipments arrive — often in waves, from several fulfillment centers — and get logged box by box against your removal order IDs. Then the real work: every unit graded, the failure diagnosed, the fixable fixed. Since Amazon ended its US prep and labeling services in 2026, nobody on their side will do any of this; recovery is strictly a seller-side operation now.
The exit is a decision, not a default. Fast-moving SKUs in restored condition go back into FBA through the standard inbound flow. Units that grade below new, or SKUs whose economics won't survive another round of fees, sell out through FBM from our racks — recovered value either way.
| What Amazon flagged | Likely fix |
|---|---|
| Stranded — listing inactive | Keyboard: relist, reprice, resolve — no freight needed |
| Unscannable or wrong FNSKU | Removal → strip → relabel → scan-verify → back to FBA |
| Prep-related refusal or damage | Removal → bag/bubble/warning label to spec → re-enter |
| Customer-damaged returns | Removal → grade honestly → repackage or route to FBM |
| Expired or near-dated units | Segregate; liquidate, donate or dispose on your call |
Every arriving box logged against its removal order ID with counts and photos — Amazon's trickle of shipments reconciled into one honest ledger.
Each unit judged on its own: sellable as-is, fixable with rework, or done. No carton-level averaging that buries good stock with bad.
The pattern across the units — label misprints, prep gaps, packaging failures — named in a findings report, so the cause dies with this batch.
Old labels stripped and replaced scan-verified, missing bags and warnings applied, tired packaging renewed with materials you approve.
Reworked units re-enter FBA through a fresh shipping plan — compliant cartons, accurate box contents, on the 24–48 hour clock from rework completion.
Units that shouldn't buy a second FBA ticket sell from our racks instead — merchant-fulfilled Amazon, Shopify or eBay — value recovered without re-entry fees.
Listing-side fixes identified and handed back to you free; only physical problems board a truck.
Removal orders target our Medley address; arrivals reconcile box by box against the order IDs.
Every unit judged and the fixable fixed — labels, prep, packaging — with the root cause documented.
Restored stock returns to FBA; the rest sells through FBM — and the write-off list is yours to decide.
The units will say why. Remove them here, and the physical evidence — labels, packaging, prep — gets read unit by unit until the pattern names itself in a findings report.
Double recovery: the batch gets stripped, relabeled and returned to FBA — and if you're done with that provider, the migration conversation is one door down.
Beat the clock with a removal order now; grade later. Sellable units go back to work, gift-able-but-not-new units sell out via FBM, and only true losses get written off.
Sometimes it is. We'll run the honest version of that math with you — and when FBA re-entry loses, the stock stays here and sells merchant-fulfilled at full speed.
Stranded inventory physically sits in fulfillment centers but has no active listing to sell through — usually a listing, pricing or compliance issue on the account side. Unfulfillable inventory has a working listing but the units themselves are flagged: customer-damaged, warehouse-damaged, defective or expired. The distinction matters because stranded stock can often be fixed from your keyboard, while unfulfillable stock can only be fixed by hands — which is where a removal order to our dock comes in.
Work the stranded-inventory report first: relist, reprice, resolve the flag — many strandings clear without a single box moving. Remove physically when the cause is in or on the units: wrong or unscannable FNSKU labels, missing prep, damaged packaging, expired dating, or a mystery Amazon can't articulate. A useful rule: if the fix requires touching the product, the product has to come to a warehouse.
Create a removal order in Seller Central with our Medley, FL address as the destination — we'll send exact formatting during onboarding. Amazon ships the units out in its own time, often across multiple deliveries from different fulfillment centers. We log every arriving box against your removal order IDs, count and photograph the contents, and open a recovery file per SKU so you can see what actually came back versus what Amazon said it sent.
Physically, unit by unit. Removed stock tells its own story: FNSKU labels that misprint or don't scan point to a labeling failure, crushed or opened packaging points to handling or packaging weakness, missing bags or warnings point to a prep gap, and clean sellable units mixed in suggest listing-side flags rather than physical faults. You get a findings report naming the dominant cause — so the next inbound shipment doesn't repeat it.
Fixable: wrong, damaged or unscannable labels (stripped and relabeled), missing or non-compliant prep (bagged, bubbled, warning-labeled), scuffed or crushed outer packaging (repackaged where you can supply or approve replacement materials), and bundles that need rebuilding. Not saveable: expired units, product damage past resale as new, and hygiene-sensitive items that have clearly been opened. Unsaveable stock is segregated and held for your call — liquidation, donation, disposal or return to you.
Once graded and reworked, recovered units re-enter through the normal inbound flow: fresh scan-verified FNSKU labels, compliant prep, cartons with accurate box content data, and a new shipping plan from your account. From completed rework to carrier handoff runs on our standard 24–48 hour clock. The units return as what they are — correctly prepped inventory — with nothing to distinguish them from a fresh supplier shipment.
Three situations come up constantly: units whose packaging grades below Amazon's new-condition bar but are perfectly sellable direct, slow-velocity SKUs where another round of FBA fees erases the margin, and stock you're winding down anyway. In those cases the recovered units stay on our racks and ship as FBM, Shopify or eBay orders — sold at full speed without buying a second ticket into the network that just ejected them.
This is exactly why we log arrivals against removal order IDs box by box. Removal shipments trickle in over weeks from multiple fulfillment centers, so first we confirm the trickle has actually finished. If a true shortfall remains, you'll have our dated receiving records and photos as evidence for a case with Amazon — documentation you simply don't have when removals go to a garage.
Yes. Bulk removals arrive as mixed boxes in no useful order, so the work starts with sortation: units separated by SKU and condition, counted into a recovery ledger, then graded and processed in priority order — your fastest-selling SKUs reworked and returned to FBA first, the long tail worked through behind them. You get a per-SKU accounting of recovered, reworked and written-off units at the end.
Screenshots or an export of the affected inventory — the stranded report or unfulfillable count — plus what you suspect went wrong, if anything. We'll reply within one business day with per-unit recovery pricing, our removal destination details formatted for Seller Central, and a triage plan: what to fix listing-side for free before a single unit ships anywhere.
Send a screenshot of your stranded or unfulfillable report and whatever you know about the cause. Within one business day you'll have per-unit recovery pricing, removal destination details for Seller Central, and a triage plan that starts with the fixes that cost nothing.
