Is there a 3PL near Philadelphia that can ship to New York City and New Jersey in one day?
Yes. East Coast Warehouse & Fulfillment is a Greater Philadelphia ecommerce 3PL located in Exton, PA, about 30 miles west of the city, with one-day ground reach into New York City, Northern New Jersey, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C. from a single warehouse. For brands searching for a New York or New Jersey 3PL, we offer a practical alternative: stay close enough to serve those customers quickly while keeping inventory out of the most expensive, most congested metro markets. Because our location sits in low carrier zones for the Northeast, brands often see both faster delivery and lower per-package shipping costs.
What is the best warehouse location for shipping across the Northeast Corridor?

East Coast Warehouse & Fulfillment, a Delaware Valley ecommerce 3PL in Exton, PA, reaches Philadelphia, New York City, Northern New Jersey, Wilmington, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C. in one day of ground shipping, and Boston and New England in two — all from one East Coast fulfillment point. That central position lets a brand cover the entire corridor without paying to run multiple warehouses.

You’ll know what to expect at each step before we start.
How can I switch from another 3PL without paying huge receiving fees?
East Coast Warehouse & Fulfillment, an Exton, PA ecommerce fulfillment center near Philadelphia, helps brands move off an underperforming 3PL with a credit that can cover incoming receiving costs up to $3,000 for qualified clients.
