International Freight That Lands In Your Fulfillment Warehouse
Most brands run freight and fulfillment as two disconnected vendors, then spend the gap chasing containers and reconciling counts. RitePrep moves your cargo from your supplier in China and lands it in the same Austin warehouse that picks, packs and preps your orders. One inventory pool, one team, one point of contact.
Every mode, coordinated by one team
Freight is quoted and booked around what your inventory actually needs, not around whichever mode is easiest to sell you.
Ocean Freight (FCL)
A full container booked end to end when your volume fills it. Lower cost per unit and fewer touches, with the container moving direct to our warehouse for devanning.
Ocean Freight (LCL)
Less than container load for volumes that do not justify a full box. Your cargo is consolidated with other shippers, so you pay for the space you actually use.
Air Freight
For launches, restocks and anything where a stockout costs more than the freight. Priced on chargeable weight, so we help you decide when it is genuinely worth it.
Import & Customs Coordination
Document preparation and coordination with your customs broker: commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, ISF filing and HTS classification support.
Cargo Insurance
Cover arranged for the value of the goods, not just the carrier's limited liability. Covered against loss and damage in transit, including General Average exposure.
Inventory Inspection
Goods checked on arrival at our Austin warehouse before they enter your sellable stock, so defects are caught before they reach a customer or an Amazon receiving dock.

Quote and book
We look at your cargo, volume, timing and Incoterm, then quote the lane. You see the origin, main carriage and destination charges separately, not one blended number.
Origin pickup and export
Cargo is collected from your supplier, consolidated if it is LCL, and cleared for export with the documents prepared up front.
Main carriage
The shipment sails or flies on the booked service. You get milestone updates rather than having to chase the forwarder for a status.
Customs and delivery
Entry is filed and duties settled, then the container is drayed to our Austin warehouse and unloaded.
Inspect, receive, fulfill
We count and inspect the goods, put them into stock, and they become available for DTC, retail or Amazon FBA prep from the same building.
The handoff is where imports go wrong
When the forwarder and the warehouse are different companies, nobody owns the seam. Counts get disputed, damaged cartons get argued about, and a delayed container turns into a stockout nobody flagged.
Running both through RitePrep removes that seam. The team that books the container is the team that receives it, counts it and ships the orders. New to the model? Start with what is a 3PL or read what freight forwarding actually involves.
What that gets you
- One inventory pool for DTC, retail and Amazon, from the moment the container is unloaded
- Goods inspected before they enter sellable stock, not after a customer complains
- Amazon FBA prep and FNSKU labeling done in the same building the container lands in
- One contact for the freight and the fulfillment, so nothing falls between vendors
International freight is delivered together with our freight partner Eleevate Logistics. You deal with RitePrep, and the freight execution sits with a specialist team.
