Written by Daniel Duran — Owner & Warehouse Solutions Specialist, 16+ years in Denver moving, logistics, and warehousing. Boxstars has served 200+ Colorado businesses since 2016 from a 100,000 sq ft facility in Denver’s Montbello Industrial Park, earning 5.0 stars across 106+ Google reviews.[2]
What Are 3PL Logistics Services for E-commerce?
Third-party logistics (3PL) services for e-commerce handle warehousing, order fulfillment, inventory management, and shipping on behalf of online retailers. E-commerce brands outsource these operations to 3PL providers to reduce overhead, scale faster, and focus on marketing and product development rather than logistics infrastructure.[3]
At Boxstars in Denver, our 3PL services integrate directly with Shopify, WooCommerce, Wix, Square, and Amazon platforms. We receive inventory into our 100,000 sq ft warehouse at 5555 Joliet Street, pick and pack orders as they arrive through your store, and coordinate carrier pickups through Worldwide Express partnerships. Our system supports same-day ship cutoffs, barcode scanning for accuracy, and real-time inventory visibility through your existing platform dashboard.[1]
E-commerce represents 25% of our customer base. We handle direct-to-consumer shipments for subscription box companies, DTC brands, Amazon FBA prep, and multi-channel sellers who need a single warehouse to serve retail and online orders. Our location 2 minutes off I-70 and 20 minutes from Denver International Airport positions inventory for efficient distribution across the Mountain West region.[2]
How Much Do 3PL Services Cost in Denver?
Boxstars charges transparent per-unit fees: pallet storage from $30/month, pick-and-pack from $0.75/order, pallet receiving $10/pallet, returns processing $1/SKU, and kitting $0.75/kit. We publish pricing upfront because e-commerce brands need to model fulfillment costs into their unit economics before committing to a provider.[1]
Most Denver 3PLs require contracts, minimum monthly fees, or tiered pricing that obscures true costs. Our model eliminates those barriers: no contracts, no minimums, no deposits, and no setup fees. You pay only for the storage space and labor you use each month. A small Shopify store shipping 50 orders monthly might pay $150 for storage and $37.50 for pick-and-pack labor, while a brand shipping 500 orders could budget $300 for storage and $375 for fulfillment.[1]
Additional services carry equally transparent pricing. Returns processing costs $1 per SKU inspected and restocked. Kitting and bundling run $0.75 per assembled unit. Pallet receiving costs $10 per pallet unloaded and logged into inventory. We invoice monthly based on actual activity, with line-item detail showing exactly what you paid for and why.[1]
Which E-commerce Platforms Does Boxstars Integrate With?
Boxstars integrates with Shopify, WooCommerce, Wix, Square, Amazon FBA, Amazon Seller Fulfilled Prime, and EDI systems for major retailers including Target, Whole Foods, and Kroger. These integrations sync order data, automate fulfillment workflows, and update inventory counts in real time without manual data entry.[1]
| Platform | Integration Type | Fulfillment Speed |
|---|---|---|
| Shopify | API, automatic order import | Same-day ship (before 2PM cutoff) |
| WooCommerce | Plugin, real-time inventory sync | Same-day ship (before 2PM cutoff) |
| Amazon FBA Prep | Manual prep, Amazon label compliance | Next-day Amazon shipment |
| Amazon SFP | API, Prime-compliant fulfillment | 2-day delivery standard |
| EDI (Target, Kroger) | EDI 850/856, automated ASN | Retailer-specified lead times |
Shopify remains our most common integration, powering roughly 60% of our e-commerce accounts. Orders flow from your Shopify admin into our warehouse management system within minutes. Our team picks, packs, and labels orders using barcode scanners to verify SKU accuracy, then generates tracking numbers that sync back to Shopify automatically. Customers receive shipping notifications without any manual updates from you.[4]
Amazon FBA prep and Seller Fulfilled Prime account for another 25% of e-commerce volume. We receive manufacturer shipments, apply Amazon FNSKU labels, prep items according to Amazon’s packaging requirements, palletize units, and coordinate LTL shipments to Amazon fulfillment centers. For SFP orders, we fulfill directly to end customers while meeting Amazon’s two-day delivery windows and tracking upload requirements.[5]
How Fast Can You Onboard a New E-commerce Account?
Boxstars completes onboarding for new e-commerce clients in 48 hours, from initial contact to live fulfillment. Our standard onboarding includes platform integration setup, inventory receiving and counting, SKU mapping, and a test order to verify accuracy before going live with customer shipments.[1]
We run a streamlined intake process: you provide platform credentials, send an inventory manifest, and coordinate an inbound delivery window. Our warehouse managers Kyle Ronemous and Jose Ramirez unload and count inventory the day it arrives. We map your SKU names to our barcode system, configure your shipping rules (box sizes, carrier preferences, packing slip templates), and process a test order that you can inspect. Most brands ship their first live customer order within 48 hours of inventory arrival.[2]
Fast onboarding matters for e-commerce brands migrating from another 3PL, launching seasonal products, or scaling quickly after a funding round. Traditional 3PLs require 2-4 week onboarding periods, vendor application paperwork, and minimum volume commitments before they’ll begin fulfillment. We eliminate those delays because our system is built for SMB agility, not enterprise bureaucracy.[6]
What Warehouse Capabilities Support E-commerce Fulfillment?
Boxstars operates a 100,000 sq ft ambient warehouse with pallet racking, barcode scanning, multi-SKU kitting, returns processing, and daily carrier pickups by UPS, FedEx, and USPS. The facility is located at 5555 Joliet Street Suite 125 in Denver’s Montbello Industrial Park, 2 minutes off I-70 and 20 minutes from Denver International Airport.[1]
Our warehouse is ambient temperature, not climate-controlled. This works well for non-perishable e-commerce goods: apparel, electronics, home goods, books, and packaged foods. We can arrange climate-controlled space for select clients who need temperature regulation, but it is not our standard offering. Medical equipment and alcohol accounts (10% and 5% of our customer mix, respectively) require documentation and compliance protocols we manage case-by-case.[2]
We maintain Warehouse Legal Liability insurance, General Liability coverage, and Workers Compensation policies that meet carrier and e-commerce platform requirements. Our team operates Monday through Friday, 8AM to 4PM Mountain Time, with same-day shipping cutoffs at 2PM. Orders received after 2PM ship the following business day. We close on weekends and major holidays, so brands should plan inventory levels and promotions accordingly.[7]
Why Do Denver E-commerce Brands Choose Boxstars Over National 3PLs?
E-commerce brands choose Boxstars for transparent pricing, no-contract flexibility, fast onboarding, and direct access to the owner. National 3PLs optimize for Fortune 500 accounts; we optimize for growing brands, DTC startups, and SMBs who need a logistics partner that scales with them, not against them.[2]
Our 5.0-star rating across 106+ Google reviews reflects this positioning. Customers consistently cite pricing transparency, responsive communication, and flexibility as reasons they moved fulfillment to Boxstars from larger providers. Daniel Duran, owner and warehouse solutions specialist with 16+ years in Denver logistics, answers the main line at (303) 296-7827. When you call, you reach someone who knows your account and can authorize exceptions or custom solutions without escalating to a regional manager.[2]
Denver’s location in the Mountain West provides one- to two-day ground shipping to 70% of the U.S. population, which reduces shipping costs compared to coastal fulfillment centers. Brands selling nationwide see lower per-order carrier fees when inventory ships from a central distribution point. Our proximity to DIA also supports fast air freight for Alaska, Hawaii, and international orders.[8]

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you require minimum order volumes or monthly fees?
No. Boxstars operates with no contracts, no minimums, no deposits, and no setup fees. You pay only for the storage space and labor you use each month. Brands shipping 10 orders or 1,000 orders monthly both qualify for the same transparent per-unit pricing.
Can you handle returns and exchanges for e-commerce orders?
Yes. We process returns at $1 per SKU. Our team inspects returned items for damage, restocks sellable inventory, and updates your platform’s inventory counts. We can also handle exchanges by picking and shipping replacement items as part of the same workflow.
What shipping carriers do you work with?
We coordinate daily pickups with UPS, FedEx, and USPS through our Worldwide Express partnership. You can use your own carrier accounts for negotiated rates, or we can provide carrier services at our volume-discounted rates. LTL freight for pallet shipments goes through regional carriers.
Is your warehouse climate-controlled?
No, our facility is ambient temperature. This works well for non-perishable goods like apparel, electronics, home goods, and packaged foods. We can arrange climate-controlled space for select clients who need temperature regulation, but it requires advance discussion and is not our standard offering.
How do you handle inventory discrepancies or damaged goods?
We use barcode scanning at receiving and fulfillment to minimize discrepancies. If a count mismatch occurs, we document it with photos and contact you before adjusting inventory records. Our Warehouse Legal Liability insurance covers damaged goods up to policy limits, and we file claims on your behalf when necessary.
