Frequently Asked Questions
What should I look for in a cosmetics 3PL?
Temperature control, batch and expiry tracking with first-expiry-first-out picking, the ability to handle dangerous goods like aerosols and fragrances, clean storage, and experience packing glass and liquids.
How much does a cosmetics 3PL cost?
You typically pay for receiving stock, storage, pick and pack per order, packaging and delivery. Climate-controlled or dangerous goods storage can cost more. Our free 3PL cost calculator gives an estimate, and we can get you real quotes.
Can a 3PL store perfumes and aerosols?
Yes, with the right setup. Perfumes, aerosols and some nail polishes are classed as dangerous goods for storage and transport, so we match you with partners able to handle them compliantly.
How do 3PLs manage expiry dates?
Good cosmetics 3PLs record batch and expiry details on receipt, pick the earliest-expiring stock first, flag short-dated stock early, and can trace any batch if you need to recall it.
How are cosmetics returns handled?
Opened products usually can’t be resold for hygiene reasons. Partners inspect each return, restock sealed items and quarantine or dispose of opened ones according to your policy.
Is Warenous’s service really free?
Yes. You share your requirements, we bring you proposals from vetted 3PLs, and you choose. There’s no fee to you and no commercial incentive for us to favour one warehouse.
