Beauty brands face constant pressure once order volumes grow. Fragile glass packaging, high SKU and shade variation, and tight dispatch cut-offs quickly strain in-house fulfilment. Serums crack in transit. Palettes chip. Subscription boxes demand same-day turnaround to meet campaign schedules. As product ranges expand, fulfilment accuracy and speed become harder to maintain.
Couriers & Freight provides a dedicated 3PL fulfilment service for beauty, cosmetics, and makeup brands that need consistent handling at scale. Our service covers fragile pick and pack, batch and expiry tracking for regulated products, multi-carrier delivery, and national warehousing, giving brands a single fulfilment workflow that supports both direct-to-consumer orders and wholesale distribution across Australia.
Couriers & Freight manages a range of beauty, cosmetics, skincare, haircare, fragrance, and body care products, including fragile items and consumer-grade dangerous goods where applicable. Each category is managed with handling methods aligned to its packaging, shelf-life, and breakage risk.
We provide a full operational workflow for beauty and cosmetics fulfilment, covering every stage from receiving to delivery.
Log incoming stock, verify SKUs, check for damage, and prepare units for storage.
Assign products to appropriate pick locations or secure zones based on fragility, shelf-life, and order volume.
Track batch codes and expiry dates to support compliance, stock rotation, and accurate reporting.
Pack glass bottles, sprays, palettes, and other delicate items using protective materials to reduce breakage.
Prepare branded packaging, subscription boxes, and marketing bundles to client specifications.
Assemble PR kits, sampler packs, gift sets, and multi-item bundles for campaigns or retail supply.
Sync stock levels and orders with supported e-commerce platforms such as Shopify, eBay, and Etsy for real-time inventory accuracy.
Process individual customer orders, including same-day dispatch where operationally required.
Prepare bulk shipments for retailers, wholesalers, and distribution centres with carton and pallet labelling.
Optional add-ons may include relabelling, returns processing, packaging procurement, and consumer-grade Dangerous Goods handling in line with Australian regulations.
Our beauty and cosmetics 3PL pricing is based on clear operational inputs rather than fixed packages. Charges typically include per-pick and pack fees, pallet or cubic storage costs, and standard receiving fees.Â
All costs are disclosed upfront, with no hidden surcharges or unexpected add-ons.

Couriers & Freight operates beauty and cosmetics fulfilment services across Australia’s key freight hubs, allowing brands to distribute stock nationally without relying on multiple fulfilment providers. Our nationwide fulfilment network ensures faster metro deliveries, consistent regional service, and reliable interstate shipping through integrated carrier connections.
This footprint enables beauty brands to fulfil direct-to-consumer orders, scale e-commerce operations, and replenish retail or distribution centres across Australia from a single fulfilment partner. It also reduces transit times, simplifies inventory allocation, and removes the complexity of managing fragmented warehouse and freight arrangements.
As beauty brands grow, fulfilment decisions begin to affect delivery performance, customer experience, and internal workload. Outsourcing fulfilment allows brands to maintain accuracy and speed while reducing operational risk as order volumes increase.
Here are some benefits beauty suppliers can get from outsourcing:
Protective handling and precise SKU management reduce damage to glass bottles, palettes, and other delicate products while improving shade and variant accuracy.
Access to multiple carriers and national warehouse locations shortens transit times and improves delivery consistency for metro and regional customers.
Batch and expiry tracking supports stock rotation, reduces write-offs, and helps brands meet regulatory and quality requirements.
Order volumes can increase during promotions or peak periods without adding warehouse space, staff, or manual processes.
Managing direct-to-consumer orders and retail replenishment through one provider reduces handoffs, simplifies coordination, and improves fulfilment reliability.
Demand for beauty and personal care products in Australia is projected to grow by 8.4% in 2025, highlighting why more brands are outsourcing fulfilment to manage rising order volumes and faster dispatch expectations.
Couriers & Freight provides beauty and cosmetics brands with fulfilment services covering receiving, storage, picking, packing, and national delivery.
