Common Questions

Frequently asked questions about our operations

Clear answers on how we integrate with your team, manage daily inventory, and protect fulfillment quality.

01
How does pricing scale with my order volume?
Our monthly service plans feature predictable base tiers paired with clear per-order rates. You never face surprise platform surcharges, and you can adjust your tier whenever seasonal sales fluctuate.
02
How quickly can you take over our daily fulfillment and customer support?
Standard operational onboarding takes between 7 and 14 business days. During this period, our team maps your warehouse stock, shadows existing support tickets, and configures carrier rules.
03
What happens if a carrier misses a pickup or damages a shipment?
Our logistics coordinators file and resolve carrier claims directly on your behalf. We flag damaged batches immediately, arrange replacement shipments, and reconcile freight invoices each week.
04
How does your team coordinate with our existing warehouse or 3PL?
We operate as an extension of your staff by communicating directly with warehouse floor supervisors via daily slack channels and ticketing desks. We handle the paperwork, exception management, and carrier scheduling so your warehouse staff stays focused on packing.
05
What makes tradesscales different from standard outsourced agency help?
We provide dedicated operational managers who specialize specifically in retail supply chain systems. Instead of random hourly workers, you receive trained professionals with documented standard operating procedures.
06
Can you handle custom packaging inserts, bundles, and kitting?
Yes, our team builds custom kitting instructions and manages assembly workflows. We verify package weights and ensure branded tissue, thank-you cards, or promotional inserts are included accurately with every unit.
