The carrier’s are quite sneaky. They add-in all sorts of “assessorial fees” after the product has shipped. We wanted to make life simpler, so we averaged the cost of shipping into a flat rate based on weight and shipping speed. It seems counter-intuitive, but it’s cheaper than regular zone-based shipping. It gives our clients predictable, inexpensive shipping and gives us reduced complexity. A win-win.
No. Our clients choose to use one or more of our facilities based on their specific business needs.  

Understanding Single Point
and Multi-Point Fulfillment

Learn more about the pros and cons of two excellent OWD fulfillment options.

Single-Point Fulfillment

Some clients, both large and small, use only one OWD fulfillment center for these reasons:

  • High number of SKUs;
  • High order variability;
  • High number of items per order;
  • Avoid cost of shipping inventory to multiple sites;
  • Avoid cost of complex inventory management;
  • Avoid splitting orders due to stock-outs;
  • High return volume.


In short: The complexity and cost of managing returns and distributed inventories isn’t worth the faster delivery time of a multi-point strategy.

A small merchant may choose single-point fulfillment because she has limited inventory. Or, her business might be moving so fast that she needs the simplicity of a single-point solution.

The downside of single-point fulfillment is slower delivery time to Zones 7 and 8. In reality, most orders arrive in about five days, even with the most inexpensive ground service.

Of course, you can always upgrade any order to an expedited method. OWD offers every delivery method from Next Day to International.

Multi-Point Fulfillment

If 2-Day inexpensive ground delivery is your biggest concern, then multi-point fulfillment might be right for you. OWD’s three fulfillment centers cover 98% of the U.S. in two days. (Sorry, Custer County, Montana, it’s three days for you.)

Successful multi-point fulfillment clients have these characteristics:

  • Small number of SKUs;
  • Low average order quantity;
  • Low order variability;
  • Small items cheaply shipped to multiple sites;
  • Customers’ buying trends are known;
  • The inherent complexities of multiple inventories are understood;
  • Low number of returns;
  • Plentiful inventory in all locations.

The multi-point client typically has a small catalog and only sells a single item or two per order.  They don’t have a lot of returns.

There are exceptions, a complex client with thousands of SKUs and high order volume may decide that 2-day delivery is worth the trade-off and complexity.

As for pricing, it’s always predictable.

With OWD’s flat-rate pricing, your

ground orders all cost the same.

International Shipping

The old way to ship internationally

DDU means Delivery Duty Unpaid – where the buyer pays for all of the import fees at delivery.

Unexpected import fees give buyers sticker shock – not good. When they refuse to pay, you’ve lost a sale and must pay to return your product, or abandon it.

DDU is an old idea whose time has passed. For these reasons and more, OWD doesn’t recommend DDU for e-com sellers.

The best way to ship internationally

DDP is an acronym for Delivery Duty Paid. DDP means that the seller pays for all the duties and import fees.

With DDP, your customers won’t be surprised with unexpected customs charges – good!

With OWD’s landed cost calculator, your foreign customers will know exactly what their various VAT, customers and duties will cost. No unhappy surprises.
