ASSEMBLY + FULFILLMENT

A Subscription Box 3PL for Assembly and Order Fulfillment

Subscription box fulfillment is the process of receiving products, managing inventory, assembling boxes, packing orders, and shipping them to subscribers.

Some programs send a different collection each month. Others replenish the same products on a recurring schedule. Those models need different inventory and assembly plans.

Tondo supports both. Your subscription platform manages customer billing and generates orders. Tondo handles the warehouse work required to prepare and ship them.

TWO MODELS. ONE FULFILLMENT PARTNER.

Fulfillment for Curated Boxes and Recurring Product Orders

Curated Subscription Boxes

Bring multiple products together in one planned packout. Tondo can assemble boxes using your component list, quantities, packaging, placement instructions, and printed materials.

For programs with changing contents, each cycle needs its own approved specification and inventory plan.

Recurring Product Shipments

Send customers their regular replenishment orders without treating every shipment as a custom assembly project.

Tondo picks, packs, and ships recurring orders generated by your connected storefront or subscription system. We review product bundles, component inventory, and packaging during setup. For one-time purchases alongside recurring orders, explore our ecommerce fulfillment services.

FROM YOUR PLAN TO THEIR DOOR

How Subscription Fulfillment Works with Tondo

  1. 1

    Plan Your Program

    Share your products, subscriber volume, shipping schedule, sales platform, and packaging requirements. We review the work involved and prepare a fulfillment quote.

  2. 2

    Receive Products and Materials

    Send inventory, boxes, inserts, and other components according to the receiving plan. Clear SKU identifiers and labels help keep the materials organized.

  3. 3

    Approve the Packout

    Define exactly what belongs in each box and how it should be assembled. Reference photographs and written instructions give the warehouse a clear standard to follow.

  4. 4

    Assemble and Fulfill Orders

    Tondo prepares kits and customer shipments according to the agreed workflow. Assembly may happen before orders arrive or during fulfillment, depending on the program.

  5. 5

    Ship and Review

    Orders ship through the selected carrier services. Inventory and shipment visibility help your team review activity and prepare for the next cycle.

EVERY PIECE HAS A PLACE

Plan Inventory Around Every Component

A subscription box is ready only when every required component is available. Enough products will not solve a shortage of boxes, inserts, or one item in a multi-product kit.

We review the inventory needed for each configuration, including products, packaging, printed materials, and recipient variations.

For changing monthly boxes, share the next cycle's specification and expected quantities early. This helps coordinate receiving, assembly, and the planned shipping window.

Subscription Box Kitting and Assembly

The finished box should match the presentation your team approved. Tondo supports assembly instructions covering product quantities, placement, inserts, protective materials, and packaging.

Your specification can include:

  • Multiple products in a defined collection.
  • Samples and promotional inserts.
  • Different box configurations or subscriber tiers.
  • Seasonal and limited-edition packaging.
  • Product bundles and discovery sets.

We review how assembled kits and their components should be represented in inventory before production begins.

THE UNBOXING MATTERS

Branded Packaging for the Subscription Experience

The box, product arrangement, and printed materials all contribute to the experience. They also affect assembly time, storage space, shipment dimensions, and cost.

Tondo can work with your supplied packaging and help coordinate custom packaging options through Tondo Packaging.

Plan the presentation alongside the fulfillment workflow so your box is practical to assemble, protect, and ship.

DELAWARE + UTAH

Subscription Fulfillment from Delaware and Utah

Tondo operates fulfillment centers in New Castle, Delaware, and Salt Lake City, Utah.

Your subscriber destinations, product demand, and replenishment requirements help determine whether one warehouse or a split inventory strategy fits your program.

We can review recent order data to compare shipping characteristics and available carrier services. For assembled boxes, the analysis should include the finished package's weight and dimensions.

A QUOTE BUILT AROUND YOUR PROGRAM

What Affects Subscription Box Fulfillment Costs?

Subscription fulfillment costs depend on what goes into the box and how much work is required to prepare it.

Your quote should account for receiving, storage, assembly, order handling, packaging materials, and shipping. Changing contents, multiple configurations, and special presentation requirements can also affect the work involved.

Send us a representative box specification and order profile. We will quote the operation around your actual program rather than a generic box.
