How to Set Up Handled Warehouse Locations in Shopify

This article walks through how to add and configure Handled’s warehouse locations in Shopify so inventory and fulfillment settings are set up correctly.

Step 1: Go to Shopify Locations

In Shopify, go to:

Settings → Locations

Step 2: Add a New Location

Click Add location.

Enter one or both of the following locations:

CA Warehouse
250 Palmyrita Avenue, Suite 1
Riverside, California 92507
United States

NJ Warehouse
310 Paterson Plank Rd
Carlstadt, New Jersey 07072
United States

Step 3: Turn Off Physical Storefront

For each Handled warehouse location, make sure Physical storefront is turned off.

Handled warehouse locations are fulfillment locations, not customer-facing retail locations.

Step 4: Enable Fulfillment From This Location

In the Fulfillment section, make sure this setting is turned on:

Use inventory at this location to fulfill online orders

This allows Shopify to use inventory at the Handled warehouse location for online order fulfillment.

Step 5: Enable Shipping

Under the Fulfillment settings, make sure:

Shipping: On

Step 6: Turn Off Local Delivery

Make sure:

Local delivery: Off

Step 7: Turn Off Pickup in Store

Make sure:

Pickup in store: Off

Step 8: Repeat for Each Handled Warehouse

Repeat these steps for each Handled warehouse location used for your account.

Each Handled warehouse location should be configured as follows:

Note About Default Location

One of your Shopify locations should be marked as the Default location.

This is okay. Handled does not require a specific warehouse location to be your default location unless your Handled contact gives you different instructions.

The important settings are that each applicable Handled warehouse location is enabled for fulfillment and shipping, while physical storefront, local delivery, and pickup in store are turned off.
