About DM Prep
A prep center run by Amazon sellers
DM Prep is a third-party prep and fulfillment center in Libertyville, Illinois, operated by Amdar Inc. For more than five years we have prepared inventory for sellers on Amazon, Walmart, eBay and other US marketplaces. We process over 100,000 units a month for more than 50 regular clients.
Our team is trained in-house on Amazon's current FBA packaging and prep requirements, and we update our procedures whenever Amazon changes its rules. We are sellers ourselves, so we know what a rejected shipment or a mislabeled unit costs.
How we work
- You send inventory to us. Ship from your supplier or distributor directly to our warehouse. We accept parcels, LTL pallets and full truckloads at our loading dock.
- We receive and check. Every delivery is counted and inspected. If units are damaged or the quantity does not match, we tell you before any work starts.
- We prep. FNSKU labeling, poly bagging, bubble wrap, bundling and expiration-date labeling, done to Amazon's requirements.
- We ship. Boxes or pallets go to the Amazon fulfillment centers in your shipping plan, typically within 24–48 hours of receiving.
- You see everything. Shipment requests, status and billing are in your client portal.
Our warehouse is insured. We do not need access to your Amazon seller account.
You track everything in a convenient client portal — not spreadsheets.

Services
Everything your goods need under one roof
FBA Prep
We receive your inventory, count it and inspect it for damage, then prepare each unit to Amazon's FBA requirements: FNSKU labeling over the manufacturer barcode, poly bagging, bubble wrap and box-content labeling. For dated products we repeat the manufacturer's expiration date on the label. Inspection, quantity check and FNSKU labeling are included in the per-unit rate, with no separate receiving fee. Prepared shipments leave for Amazon typically within 24–48 hours.
FBM Fulfillment
We store your products and ship orders from your own store or any marketplace directly to your customers. You get a separate fulfillment portal where you see your inventory and connect your Shopify store, so orders reach us automatically. We also support Walmart WFS and Seller-Fulfilled, and eBay.
Sets & Bundles
We assemble multipacks and bundles from several items into one sellable unit: matching the components, packing them securely, and labeling the finished set with its own FNSKU and a “Sold as set” label where Amazon requires it.
Glass & Fragile
Glass and fragile products are wrapped individually in bubble wrap and packed to withstand transit. The goal is fewer breakages, fewer customer returns and fewer defect claims on your account.
Storage
We receive, shelve and store your inventory in our insured warehouse in Libertyville, Illinois, and send it to Amazon in the quantities you choose. This lets you buy in bulk from suppliers and replenish FBA in smaller shipments.
Removals & Returns
Send your Amazon removal orders and customer returns to us. We inspect each unit, sort sellable from unsellable, repackage and relabel what can be sold, and ship it back to FBA or directly to your customers.
Buyout — tax-free
We purchase products from US suppliers and distributors on your behalf using our resale certificate, so no state sales tax is added, and we can open supplier accounts for you. Purchased goods arrive at our warehouse and go straight into prep.
