Delivering Goods to SKUdrop's China Warehouse

Delivery days to SKUdrop's Yiwu warehouse

📦 SKUdrop's warehouse in Yiwu, China, accepts deliveries 7 days a week, making it easy for your suppliers to arrange shipments throughout the week.

However, there are some important things to know about weekend deliveries, inventory processing and Chinese public holidays.

📅 Warehouse Receiving Days

Our warehouse normally accepts deliveries Monday through Sunday, including weekends.

• Monday to Friday: Goods are received and processed into your SKUdrop inventory as part of our normal warehouse operations.
• Saturday and Sunday: Goods can still be delivered and received, but they will not be processed or added to your SKUdrop inventory until the following Monday.

Please allow additional processing time during busy periods or when large volumes of goods arrive over a weekend.

🏮 Chinese Public Holidays and Warehouse Closures

Although we normally accept deliveries 7 days a week, there are certain periods during the year when our warehouse may temporarily suspend receiving operations.

These closures generally occur during extended Chinese holiday periods, particularly:

• Chinese New Year (Spring Festival): Usually January or February. This is the most significant holiday period in China and may involve an extended warehouse closure.
• National Day / Golden Week: Usually around 1–7 October. Warehouse receiving may be temporarily suspended during this period.
• Labour Day Holiday: Usually around 1 May, with several consecutive public holidays. Receiving arrangements may be affected.

Other Chinese public holidays may occasionally affect warehouse operations, depending on staffing and local arrangements.

Important: The exact dates and duration of any warehouse closures may vary from year to year.

📧 Advance Notification of Warehouse Closures

SKUdrop will notify customers by email well in advance of any planned warehouse closure.

These notifications will include:

• The dates when warehouse receiving will be suspended.
• The last date suppliers can deliver goods before the closure.
• The date warehouse receiving is expected to resume.
• Any additional instructions for arranging deliveries.

We recommend forwarding these notifications to your suppliers and freight forwarders to ensure deliveries are scheduled accordingly.

Please Note: Warehouse closure notifications are sent by email and are not available within your SKUdrop Dashboard.

These notifications are automatically sent to the primary email address associated with your SKUdrop account.

If you have additional users linked to your account, you can also enable these notifications for them by navigating to Profile > Notifications and selecting the users you wish to receive them.

We recommend ensuring that all relevant team members receive these notifications to help avoid delivery delays during warehouse closures.
