All Things Prep
Switch Amazon prep centres

Switch prep centres like an operational handover, not a casual address change

ATP can help sellers plan a cleaner switch by separating live inbound, old-centre stock, supplier address changes, removals and the first controlled ATP batch.

Removals and storage route review

Best fit for

  • Sellers unhappy with slow check-in, poor communication or weak visibility at another prep centre
  • Accounts that need to move suppliers, retailer orders or removal stock without breaking FBA flow
  • Operators who want ATP to confirm fit before the whole operation changes

What ATP handles

  • A switch checklist for old-centre stock, live inbound and new ATP routing
  • Guidance on first-batch testing before supplier addresses are changed broadly
  • Review of storage, removals and ecommerce routes that may need separate handling
  • Quote and workflow confirmation before anything is rerouted

Next step

Ask ATP for pricing, fit and next steps before you reroute live stock.

Do not change every address at once

A messy switch can strand stock between providers. The first batch should be deliberate and easy to trace.

Map live stock first

Check what is already inbound, in prep, held, stored or in removals before moving the next batch.

Use proof to de-risk the move

Warehouse proof, pricing and case-study pages help sellers judge ATP before the operational handover.

Workflow

  1. List what stock is still with the old prep centre, what is inbound and what is about to be ordered.
  2. Keep current shipments stable while the ATP first batch is tested.
  3. Send a controlled ATP batch with clean references and agreed prep requirements.
  4. Change wider supplier or retailer routing only after the workflow is proven.

Can I move prep centres without disrupting Amazon shipments?

Yes, but it should be staged. Map live stock first, test ATP with a controlled batch and then move wider inbound once the route works.

Should I redirect all supplier addresses immediately?

Usually no. Start with a first batch unless there is an urgent reason to move everything.

Can ATP handle removals during a switch?

Yes. ATP can review removals, storage and re-prep needs as part of the switch plan.
