Common Small Business fulfilment questions.

View all FAQs

When is the right time to outsource?

The right time to outsource your eCommerce fulfilment is when it becomes too busy for you or your staff to handle, when your goods are filling your storage space, or when your existing fulfilment partner is just not able to scale with you.

You may find that your business has grown to 200+ orders per month, you are starting to be a ‘scale up’ business, not a ‘start up’, and suddenly you have become a warehouse picker and packer, not an eCommerce entrepreneur.

Outsourcing your fulfilment will allow you to concentrate on your skillset as a business owner, whilst working with a trusted partner that you know will get your goods where they need to go quickly and efficiently.

How much does it cost to outsource fulfilment?

Outsourcing eCommerce fulfilment for scale up clients is a LOT more cost effective than having your own warehouse, pickers, packers, warehouse management system, operations managers, customer service agents and more. Instead, you simply pay per m² for storage, a price per pick and pack, and a fee for the delivery. This can start from as little as £2 a shipment.

The factors that impact fulfilment costs are: the type of goods, the destination, delivery times and carrier selections. It’s best to get a bespoke quotation based on your goods, your business aims and your customers. This way we can help you match your expectations with the right carriers or couriers.

How do I choose the right fulfilment partner?

When it comes to eCommerce Fulfilment, there are lots of different solutions depending on your end users. You must decide what is most important and where you want to scale to. Are you planning on being the next ASOS? If so, you need one of the big central UK warehouses. If you are an SME, then something more local and accessible may be for you.

What matters to you? Do you care who you are working with? Is it a functional relationship? Are you trying to build a rapport with a trusted partner to build your business? Do you care about the environment, recyclable packaging, and CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility)? Your fulfilment partner will need to understand your values and implement them.

There is a world of difference between big scale fulfilment houses and a more personalised, localised solution. Deciding what values and attributes are most important for your business will ultimately inform your choice.

How does eCommerce Fulfilment work?

Diamond’s eCommerce fulfilment system is designed to integrate with your marketplaces and website. Your goods will be taken into the warehouse where stock and inventory will be synchronised, giving you live ‘in stock’ information. With your delivery options decided, you are ready to go. It’s that simple.

Your orders will automatically come in from your systems to the warehouse where they will be picked, packed and despatched. You will have 100% transparency of your goods through our management system, which will update you on fulfilment status at each stage from arrival to delivery.

For more information on this, please visit our dedicated blog: How does eCommerce fulfilment work?

What marketplaces or sites can I sell my goods on?

We fully integrate with eBay, Amazon, Magneto, Shopify, WooCommerce, Linnworks plus 40+ more marketplaces, and we offer bespoke integrations too. This means your orders will drop straight into our system, Despatchlab. It then monitors the whole order journey from pick to delivery, always giving you 100% transparency in your eCommerce fulfilment journey.

You can see what has been picked, what is going out that day and what has been delivered. If a delivery goes awry, you can see what has been done to remedy it.

Despatchlab is very easy to use. It gives you a real time operational overview and also provides you with reports that can tell you how to improve business growth.

For more information, visit our dedicated blog: What marketplaces do you integrate with Despatchlab?

Where can I store my goods?

You have a lot of geographical choices for your eCommerce fulfilment. You can choose a local hub, so you can pop in regularly, or a warehouse that specialises in what you do. For example, our Guildford centre specialises in alcohol fulfilment and Bournemouth in subscription boxes. If you need lots of space for a cost-effective price, we can offer our 40,000ft² centre in Wales.

We will work with you so you can scale to capacity. Bigger clients may need bigger sites to cope with growing future demand. Specialist business may need multiple sites for same day fulfilment. Whatever your need is, get in touch and we will create a bespoke solution.

Specialists in a variety of fulfilment services.

As a small company we have struggled in the past to get any form of reliable courier service. Since Fleetline have become a Diamond Partner, that’s all changed. Bob and the team have delivered time and again for us. We won’t be going anywhere else!

Allen Signs

We save so much time and resource by outsourcing our logistics. There’s no way we could do this ourselves anymore! It means our small team can really focus on growing the business and working with Diamond makes it easy because Mandy and her team are so responsive to any of our requests. We like to be able to get back to our customers quickly if there is a problem with their order, and feel like the team at Diamond care about that as well.

Avery Row

We have received great feedback from all the staff who deal with Diamond. They are always so helpful and it fills us with confidence when it comes to shipping with yourselves.

Bartell Global

Incredibly helpful and willing, also very responsive and reactive. Everyone I’ve met at Diamond has been really friendly and wanting me to get the best from their services. I have recommended them to three other businesses, as they just make it easy even when there is confusion.

Caravan Parts Online

The service that Bob at Diamond Logistics offers is second to none, he is always available and willing to sort out any issues we have. After using their services, I would not go back to any other courier.

Davmar Engineering

Outsourcing our fulfilment operations has meant that we can concentrate on the most critical parts of our business, safe in the knowledge that our fulfilment is in good hands. This part of the business can’t be undervalued as it is an important part of the customer journey chain.

Hello Day

As a new business, working with Diamond allows us to have a delivery and fulfilment partner that can scale up their support as we grow, offering service levels matched to our own business standards. This has been invaluable in getting our new business efficiently up and running.

My Wedding Hire

Being a Network Partner with Diamond Logistics has been the best decision I have made

Network Partner

We have loved working with Diamond, it has taken the stress out of fitting in post office trips around our busy lives. It has also enabled us to supply larger retail chains who have stricter delivery and packaging requirements. Diamond have done everything to meet those demands and it has always gone smoothly!

Neu Oil

With their consistent efficiency and reliability they are now considered as part of our business. We cannot do without them!

Power Options

As we needed a fulfilment centre to send out our products – high end spirits – to consumers, it was also crucial that the orders were packed to the very highest standard. This meant branded tissue paper, a complementary postcard and a gift note when required (presentation reflects hugely on our business). I am pleased to say that Diamond have been able to deliver this.

Sacred Spirits

We are good at what we do, and Diamond are good at what they do. To have the peace of mind that part of the service we provide is looked after in a professional and timely manner, allows me to fulfil other elements of my day-to-day role without any unnecessary stress and added pressures.

Tails Never Fails

Excellent service from the team at the Diamond Lincoln service centre, the pro-activeness of the team is a real benefit to our business.
