Frequently Asked Questions
Common Questions, Straight Answers
We believe in being upfront. Here are the questions we hear most often — answered honestly and without the jargon. Can't find what you're looking for? Just get in touch.
Fulfilment & Storage
Do I have to sign a long-term warehouse contract?
No, we don't do that. We don't believe in locking small businesses into long-term commitments. Our fulfilment service is flexible — we work with you on terms that suit a growing business, not a large corporation.
Can I use my own packaging?
Yes, absolutely. You're welcome to use your own branded packaging — we'll pack every order exactly to your specification. If you'd prefer to use ours, we can supply packaging materials at cost.
Is my stock stored safely?
Yes. Your stock is stored in dedicated, secure columns at our premises at 32 Egerton Street, Farnworth, Bolton. Every active account includes one dedicated storage column (W40cm × L60cm × H180cm) at no extra charge.
How much does pick & pack cost?
We charge a flat rate of £1.75 per order for pick and pack. This covers picking your items from storage, packing them carefully, and preparing them for dispatch. Shipping is charged at cost with no mark-up.
How do shipping, packaging, and billing work for fulfilment?
While our storage is completely free and pick & pack is a flat £1.75 per order, shipping and optional packaging are charged at cost. To get started and keep your orders moving smoothly without delays, we require an initial opening deposit to cover ongoing shipping and packaging expenses. We send you a clear, transparent statement on your weekly report detailing all postage costs used and your remaining balance, so you always know where your account stands.
What ecommerce platforms do you support?
We work with sellers on all major platforms — Shopify, Etsy, Amazon, eBay, TikTok Shop, WooCommerce, and independent stores. If you sell online, we can fulfil your orders.
How do I send my stock to ProFulfil?
Once you're set up with us, we'll walk you through our intake process. You ship your stock to our Bolton premises and we'll book it in, organise it in your dedicated storage column, and let you know when it's ready.
Administration
Can you handle admin and fulfilment together?
Yes, we specialise in offering both services under one roof. Many of our clients combine fulfilment with our Human Business Administration service for a fully managed back-office operation. You deal with one team, one point of contact.
Can I use your address for my business?
We are developing a professional business address service at our 32 Egerton Street, Farnworth, Bolton premises. This service is not yet available. Please get in touch if you'd like to be notified when it launches.
How is administration priced?
Administration services are quoted individually based on the type, frequency, and volume of work required. We don't offer fixed-price tiers because every business is different — we'd rather give you a fair price for exactly what you need.
