No order minimums

A 3PL with no minimums: start with your first order

There is no monthly order minimum at IntersTailor. You pay per order and per item that ships, plus the shelf space you use, from your first carton onward.

What no minimums means at our warehouse

Plain terms, so you can work out a quiet month before it happens.

Many fulfillment warehouses ask for a minimum number of orders each month, or a minimum bill, before they will take you on. We do not. A 3PL with no minimums should let a brand start when it is ready, not when it is big.

You pay for orders that ship

Order handling is $1.00 per order plus $0.75 per item. Ten orders cost ten times the order rate; a month with no orders has no order fees at all.

You pay for the space you use

Storage is billed by the bin, shelf or pallet spot: $2.50 per bin, $70 per shelf or $25 per pallet each month. A small range in a few bins costs a few dollars.

The one fixed fee, said out loud

There is a $250 monthly account fee, which covers account management, inventory records and reporting. Your first month is free of it. Setup, onboarding and store integrations are free from day one.

Who starts small with us

  • Brands launching a first product

    Send a few cartons, connect your Shopify store and let us ship while you find your customers. See Shopify fulfillment.

  • Sellers testing TikTok Shop

    A new channel can be quiet for weeks and then busy overnight. Paying per order covers both. See TikTok Shop fulfillment.

  • Seasonal and drop-based brands

    Ship a collection, sell through it, and keep a small stock in bins between drops without a minimum bill in the slow months.

  • Makers shipping from China

    Start with a first pallet in the US instead of committing to a container. See US fulfillment for China-based sellers.
