Why We're Different

20 Years of Getting the Heavy Lifting Right

Most 3PLs were designed for small parcels. Their systems, racking, carriers, and staff training were optimized for items that fit in a shoebox. When a patio set, a rowing machine, or a 100-lb barbell rack shows up, that's where they start struggling.

At ProShipper, we've spent over 20 years solving fulfillment challenges across every product category — including the hard ones. Our Toronto facility has high-bay racking, wide aisles, oversize pack lines, and specialized PIT equipment built specifically to move big, heavy inventory efficiently.

We handle the items others turn away. And we do it at scale, with the speed and accuracy that fast-growing ecommerce brands demand.

Big and bulky fulfillment is not small-parcel fulfillment with a bigger box. It takes the right space, people, systems, and carrier relationships.

The Requirements

What It Actually Takes to Do Big & Bulky with Excellence

Big products need more than warehouse space. They need purpose-built processes, trained teams, and the right carrier relationships.

A warehouse designed for large products

High-bay racking, floor-load zones, wide aisles, container docks, and oversized packing stations.

A team experienced with heavy SKUs

Processes for safe handling, pick accuracy, damage prevention, and peak-season staffing.

Negotiated carrier rates for oversized freight

Carrier relationships that reduce AHS, oversize, DIM, large package, freight, and cross-border costs.

Optimized inbound & Canada-US lanes

Receiving, routing, and shipping workflows built for large items moving across North America.

Real-time WMS built for complex SKUs

Dimensional weight, storage location, pick accuracy, shipment status, and inventory controls.

DTC + retail B2B under one roof

Individual consumer orders and palletized retail shipments handled by one partner.

Our Commitments

The Real Problem

The Hidden Costs That Kill Big & Bulky Margins

Brands scaling a big and bulky product line face a specific set of fulfillment problems that standard 3PLs cannot solve — and that quietly erode profitability with every order shipped.

AHS, oversize, and DIM weight surcharges

Large package fees and avoidable dimensional weight charges can erase margin on every shipment.

Damage rates that destroy reviews

Oversized products need product-specific packaging protocols, not one-size-fits-all packing.

3PLs that can't scale with your peaks

Seasonal categories need storage and labor plans prepared months before demand spikes.

Our Capabilities

Purpose-Built Operations for Heavy, Oversized & High-Volume

Big and bulky fulfillment requires specialized systems — not improvised workarounds. Here's exactly how ProShipper handles the complexity that stalls other 3PLs.

1

Smart Cartonization & DIM Weight Reduction

Our WMS selects the optimal box size for each order automatically. Soft goods are vacuum-sealed. Rigid items get boxes cut to exact dimensions.

2

SKU-Specific Protective Packaging

Corner guards, honeycomb cardboard, dense foam molding, and box-in-box methods for fragile components.

3

Oversized Carrier Network & Rate Negotiation

Negotiated rate agreements with carriers specializing in freight and oversized parcel shipping, including cross-border Canada-US lanes.

4

High-Bay Racking & Floor-Load Storage

High-bay racking for stackable flat-pack inventory and dedicated floor-load zones for items that cannot be racked.

5

Peak Season Surge Capacity

Plan seasonal peaks months in advance, stage inventory early, and avoid surprise capacity constraints.

100,000+ sq ft · High-bay racking to 40 ft · Wide aisles for PIT equipment · Oversize pack lines · Floor-load zones · Container receiving dock · 24/7 security · Temperature-controlled sections

Real-Time WMS Dashboard

FAQ

Big & Bulky Fulfillment: Common Questions

The questions we get most from brands evaluating ProShipper for their big and bulky products.

What counts as big and bulky for your operation?

Generally, any item bigger than a shoebox or heavier than 10 lbs. More specifically: items that trigger Additional Handling Surcharges, Large Package Surcharges, or oversize fees from major carriers.

How do you handle AHS, oversize fees, and DIM weight costs?

We aggregate volume from many big and bulky clients to negotiate steep discounts on carrier surcharges and cartonize every shipment to minimize billable dimensional weight.

Can you handle both my DTC orders and retail B2B shipments?

Yes. We process individual consumer orders and palletized EDI-compliant retail B2B shipments for the same client under one roof.

My category has huge seasonal peaks. Can you handle that?

Yes. We plan for it months in advance, offer unlimited storage per account, and scale staffing proactively.

What is your damage rate on big and bulky shipments?

We maintain a 99.9% damage-free delivery rate across all product types. The key is SKU-specific packaging protocols.

What does pricing look like for big and bulky fulfillment?

Pricing is custom to each brand. Product weight, dimensions, volume, and carrier requirements all affect the rate.
