Amazon medium truckloads: what the label means

These three undated pages use the label differently. They're examples, not a full seller list or supplier recommendation.

Returns are goods buyers sent back; overstock is excess stock. Open box means opened packaging. Grade A is a seller's condition label; LPN is a return's tracking code. See the glossary.

The third offer combines monster and mediums. Ask for measurements instead of assuming fixed size tiers. See the monster guide and high-piece-count guide; high piece count refers to item numbers.

As of October 2026, Amazon's official marketplace lists Sortable for smaller goods, Non-Sortable for larger or heavier goods, and AMXL for large, heavy or bulky goods needing special handling. B-Stock's explanation separates these from .com, Amazon-owned stock, and FBA, Fulfillment by Amazon stock supplied by marketplace sellers. The official pages checked don't map a private seller's mediums label to one type. Get source paperwork; don't swap Non-Sortable for Mediums.

Get the exact program on the quote; an Amazon heading can cover several mixes. Keep its definition with separate condition, packaging, product-type and count claims.

• What item sizes are included or excluded? Does the seller measure the item or its carton?
• What are this shipment's actual pallet count, footprint, tallest height and weight? Footprint means the floor space a pallet takes up.
• Is the count exact, rough or unknown? Does it count pieces, sets or cartons?
• Is there a manifest for these goods, or does it show a past shipment?
• What sorting, removal or testing was done, and who did it?
• Which warehouse ships the goods, who bills you and who handles freight, or shipping by truck?
• What paperwork and deadlines apply to shortages, damage in transit and condition disputes?

Amazon's official auction FAQ currently bars checks before bidding and allows stock photos of samples. These are official marketplace rules. Under a middle seller's agreement, ask about inspection and current photos.

Before writing ads, read Amazon's purchase terms: they restrict Amazon references in resale and require removal of retailer marks and customer data. Editorial use is separate from these buyer duties. Ask which duties pass to you.

Only test what you can test safely. Search the model in CPSC's recalls database and consult the maker before a function check. Don't test recalled goods, swollen or damaged batteries, damaged cords or gas appliances. CPSC's online-resale guidance bars resale of recalled products until the stated fix is done.

Does the box hold the right product and parts for its intended use? Keep multi-carton goods together while checking the maker's parts list. Check function even for goods sorted by size.

Use the inspection and testing guide for each item. Write down partial checks as such: “Powers on; other functions untested.” Test each repeat unit on its own. For devices, keep account release and data-erasure records separate from function tests.

Made-up example: goods cost $8,000, freight costs $2,000 and checks leave 400 sellable units. These aren't expected mediums results.

Break even means sales cover the costs you've included. At 200 sellable units, that same buying total assigns $50 per unit. Add actual prep, selling and disposal costs to get beyond the first sum. The pallet profit calculator helps with buying costs; track other costs on their own. Check tax due and accepted paperwork for a resale certificate, the tax document used when buying goods for resale. This guide is not legal, tax or financial advice.
