1. Amazon Inventory Removal Fees
As the platform assists sellers in managing inventory, a certain fee is charged. Therefore, when sellers need to dispose of part of their inventory due to operational needs, they also need to pay a portion of the storage fees. Typically, the platform removes the order one to two weeks after the seller chooses to dispose of the inventory. Sellers can also set up automatic removal on the platform. It's important to note that when choosing automatic disposal, sellers can specify price ranges, and within the selected range, the platform will return matching items to the seller.
The algorithm for the disposal fees varies for different products, as follows:
1) Standard Size
The disposal fees per item are as follows:
When the product weight is less than or equal to 0.5 pounds: charged at USD 0.32;
When the product weight is greater than 0.5 and less than or equal to 1 pound: charged at USD 0.35;
When the product weight is greater than 1 and less than or equal to 2 pounds: charged at USD 0.48;
When the product weight is greater than 2 pounds: charged at USD 0.67 plus USD 0.35 per pound.
2) Oversized and Special Handling Products
When the product weight is less than or equal to 1 pound: charged at USD 0.6;
When the product weight is greater than 1 and less than or equal to 2 pounds: charged at USD 0.72;
When the product weight is greater than 2 and less than or equal to 4 pounds: charged at USD 1.26;
When the product weight is greater than 4 and less than or equal to 10 pounds: charged at USD 2.32;
When the product weight is greater than 10 pounds: charged at USD 3.5 plus USD 0.35 per pound.
2. How to Remove Inventory?
1) Based on their operational situation, sellers can request inventory returns or dispose of remaining inventory at any time, providing a high degree of flexibility.
2) Sellers can set up automatic removal operations on the platform to manage unsellable inventory and stock that requires longer turnover times.
3) Sellers can use spreadsheets to compile and create a summary of orders they wish to remove.
