Shipo is an East Coast 3PL that ships DTC and Shopify orders to most of the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic in 1–2 days from a single warehouse in Wilmington, Delaware. From Wilmington, ground shipments reach roughly 35% of the U.S. population overnight and more than 55% within two days — so brands get fast, affordable delivery to their biggest customer base without splitting inventory across multiple warehouses.

Why an East Coast warehouse means faster, cheaper shipping
Most DTC customers on the East Coast sit within one or two shipping zones of Wilmington, Delaware. Shipping fewer zones means lower carrier costs and shorter transit times — often 1–2 day ground delivery to New York, New Jersey, Philadelphia, Boston, Washington D.C., and the wider Northeast and Mid-Atlantic. For a growing Shopify brand, that usually beats paying for expedited air or running two coasts of inventory before you’re ready.
Delaware adds a cost advantage on top of location: it’s one of only five U.S. states with no sales tax, so the supplies, packaging, and inbound inventory handled at the facility aren’t taxed — savings that show up on every shipment.
Who Shipo’s East Coast fulfillment is built for
Shipo works best for growing DTC and ecommerce brands — typically shipping thousands of orders a month — whose customers are concentrated on the East Coast. That includes brands in health and wellness, supplements, beauty, pet, home goods, and subscription boxes selling on Shopify, Amazon, and Walmart. If most of your orders ship to the Northeast and you want consistent 1–2 day delivery without managing multiple warehouses, a single East Coast node is usually the simplest, lowest-cost setup.

Frequently asked questions
How fast can an East Coast 3PL deliver to the Northeast?
From a Wilmington, Delaware warehouse, most Northeast and Mid-Atlantic orders arrive in 1–2 business days by ground shipping, because those regions fall within one or two carrier zones. Wilmington reaches about 35% of the U.S. population overnight and 55% within two days.
Do I need warehouses on both coasts for 2-day shipping?
Not necessarily. If most of your customers are on the East Coast, a single East Coast warehouse can deliver to them in 1–2 days at lower cost than splitting inventory across two coasts. Brands typically add a second West Coast node only once a large share of orders ships west.
Does Shipo integrate with Shopify?
Yes. Shipo connects to Shopify so orders import automatically for pick, pack, and ship, with real-time inventory and tracking. Shipo also supports Amazon and Walmart for multi-channel brands.
