What Is 3PL for Cell Phones?

If you’re managing bulk phone orders — whether for resale, insurance replacements, employee programs, or MVNO activation kits — chances are you’re juggling way more than inventory. Fulfillment, kitting, shipping speed, returns handling, and RMA logistics? That’s where 3PL (third-party logistics) comes in.

In the mobile industry, 3PL for cell phones means working with a trusted partner to handle:

Storage of inventory
Order picking, testing, and labeling
Kitting and packaging (custom sleeves, cables, inserts, etc.)
Shipping with tracking and speed guarantees
Returns and RMA processing

You keep your brand — we handle the heavy lifting.
