About Our Home Goods Fulfillment Services
Managing logistics for home goods is a different beast compared to apparel or electronics. You’re dealing with a wide range of product types: everything from delicate glassware and textiles to oddly shaped lamps or heavy storage bins. These items often require special handling, customized packaging, and thoughtful warehousing. That’s where we come in.
Our fulfillment services are designed from the ground up to support home goods brands. Whether you sell online, through marketplaces, or via wholesale channels, we offer a reliable back-end that handles the complexities of fulfillment, so you can focus on growing your brand. We work closely with your team to understand the needs of your products and customers. Then, at River Plate Inc. we make a fulfillment plan to match.
We start from bulk storage and finish at final mile delivery, so we manage every touchpoint. Our climate-controlled facilities protect temperature-sensitive items, while flexible racking systems are capable of keeping oversized or fragile goods. Our advanced warehouse management technology provides real-time inventory tracking and flawless order flow across all your sales channels.
Most importantly, we take care of your brand’s reputation!
Thanks to River Plate’s Homegoods Distribution Center, Fulfilling Orders Is Now Simple and Stress-Free.
“Our company has been working with them for years now, and they’re wonderful to work with. Communicative and they always go the extra mile to make sure our orders go through fulfillment seamlessly.”
Our Home Goods Fulfillment Process
Our fulfillment process is structured to give home goods brands consistency, visibility, and full control without the operational burden.
Step 1
Receiving and Inspection
When your inventory arrives, we don’t just check in. Each shipment is matched against your packing list, and each SKU is verified for accuracy, quantity, and physical condition. If anything looks off, it’s flagged and documented immediately. Only items that pass inspection are cleared to move into storage, so you avoid issues later.
Step 2
Storage and Inventory Management
After receiving, products are stored based on their handling needs. Fragile household goods are placed in padded bins or custom shelves to prevent breakage. Larger or heavier items are racked on pallets with enough space to avoid shifting. Seasonal goods can be staged in designated areas for timed rollouts. Our warehouse management system (WMS) tracks every unit in real time, giving you 24/7 access to accurate stock levels and locations.
Step 3
Order Integration and Routing
We integrate directly with your e-commerce platforms and sales channels so that every order flows into our system automatically, without manual uploads or lag. Once an order is received, our software identifies the optimal warehouse based on customer location and inventory availability.
Step 4
Picking, Packing and Customization
Orders are picked using barcode scanning. Packaging is selected based on item dimensions, fragility, and any custom branding requirements you’ve set. We support eco-friendly options, branded inserts, kit assembly, and more.
Step 5
Shipping and Tracking
Once packed, orders are labeled and handed off to your preferred carrier or shipped using our negotiated rates for added savings. Same-day fulfillment is available for most orders placed before cutoff. As soon as tracking is generated, it’s pushed back to your storefront or marketplace so your customers are kept in the loop.

What Clients Have to Say About our Home Goods Fulfillment Services
“We have worked with Riverplate for over 5 years and could not ask for a better 3PL partner. They have helped us launch two successful brands across different categories and regularly go above and beyond expectations. What truly sets them apart from other 3PLs is their flexibility and attention to detail. Whenever things do not go accordingly to plan, they do whatever they can to help. Also, in the rare instances when something is their fault, they have always taken responsibility and made the situation right. Lastly, they are always looking towards implementing new strategies/processes to improve efficiencies and save their clients money. To summarize, I could not recommend them more.”
“I have five 3PLs (domestic and international). River Plate is our favorite! Their WMS system is very user friendly and you have access to many features. Whatever information you need, you can run a report and get your answers immediately! The team at River Plate is friendly and I must say after 5 years have become family. Our company has very demanding time frames and requests when it comes to fulfillment and River Plate never disappoints. They go the extra mile to ensure our company needs are met. I would highly recommend using River Plate for your warehouse/fulfillment needs.”

Frequently Asked Questions
How secure are River Plate Inc. warehouses?
Security is a top priority. Our warehouses are equipped with 24/7 video surveillance, restricted access zones, alarm systems, and digital inventory tracking. Every inbound and outbound action is logged. You can trust that your inventory is protected (physically and digitally) at all times.
Is there a minimum volume to work with you?
We work with both growing and high-volume brands. While we don’t require massive order numbers to get started, we do look for partners who are actively scaling or ready to hand off fulfillment. If you’re not sure if we’re the right fit, we’re happy to talk through your needs and explore custom options. Our goal is long-term, sustainable partnerships.
How do you handle peak seasons?
We prepare months in advance for Q4 and other high-volume windows. This includes hiring additional staff, increasing shifts, and reserving extra storage space for your seasonal goods. Our systems are built to handle volume spikes without slowing down. The earlier we plan with you, the smoother it goes when the surge hits.
Can I store goods across multiple locations?
Yes. If you want to reduce shipping cost or time by splitting inventory across multiple warehouses, we can support that. Our fulfillment network is designed to offer geographic flexibility. Smart order routing ensures that each order ships from the closest available location. You get a broader reach without needing to manage multiple vendors.
How do I get started with your service?
It all starts with a discovery call. We’ll review your product mix, order volume, and specific fulfillment needs. From there, we’ll put together a proposal and walk you through onboarding. The entire setup process is guided.
How flexible is your pricing?
Our pricing is customized to your business. There’s no one-size-fits-all in this business. We consider your order volume, storage requirements, handling complexity, service preferences, and everything else to build a pricing model that makes sense.
