"Earlstrees gave us the floor space we simply couldn't find further south, and the A43 down to the A14 keeps our Felixstowe containers moving. For big-box volume, Corby has been a genuinely smart call."
Temu local fulfilment for Corby sellers — UK stock holding, goods-in QC on inbound freight and same-day domestic despatch via A43, 40 minutes from the DIRFT Golden-Triangle core.
Temu fulfilment for Corby from WSUK: stock held in the UK for local-to-local despatch, inbound containers counted against your PO and QC-checked from £75, orders picked from £1.00 (under 3kg) plus £0.35 processing, and returns graded back into stock from £1.25. Reached via A43, A6014, A6003 and A14, around 40 minutes from the DIRFT Golden-Triangle core near Rugby. No setup fee, live in 24–72 hours.
Temu is won on unit economics and delivery speed. That means a tight pick rate, stock already in the country, and catching problems at goods-in rather than at the customer.
Container and supplier deliveries are received, counted against your purchase order and inspected before anything is put away — so shortfalls and damage are your supplier’s problem, not your review score.
Orders picked, packed and away the same working day against a 4pm cut-off, with tracking pushed straight back to the channel so the buyer sees movement immediately.
The categories that sell on Temu come back often. Returns are opened, checked and graded, and anything sellable goes straight back into available stock instead of sitting in a corner.
The same two tiers as every WSUK service. Short-term rate card for monthly rolling accounts — pay per order, no commitment. Long-term contract rates tier down hard once steady volume builds, which is where high-volume Temu sellers land.
Pay-per-use published rates with no commitment.
Locked-in rates on multi-year SLAs.
Where most Temu lines sit — low value, high volume.
Unload, count against PO and inspect before put-away.

Corby's story is one of reinvention. The furnaces that once made it a steel town have largely cooled, but the appetite for heavy industry left behind a legacy of large sites, robust infrastructure and a workforce used to shift-based operations. Today the NN17 and NN18 districts are among the East Midlands' densest warehousing clusters, feeding out onto the A43 towards the A14 in one direction and Northampton in the other. The Rugby and DIRFT core lies about forty minutes away.
Earlstrees is the estate that most defines the town's modern trade - a sprawling industrial and distribution area that has drawn national retailers and 3PLs to Corby's edge. Weldon and Willowbrook extend the footprint, and between them they host steel and metals processing alongside food production and the big-box distribution that increasingly dominates. Rockingham, with its motor speedway heritage and adjoining development land, sits just to the town's north, adding to the sense of a place built at scale.
What Corby lacks in direct motorway frontage it makes up for through the A14, the crucial east-west freight artery reached via the A43. That corridor links the port of Felixstowe to the M1 and M6, and Corby sits neatly on the approach. Kettering, Market Harborough and Wellingborough all lie within a short drive, so a base here serves the northern Northamptonshire warehousing belt while keeping the wider triangle and the east-coast ports within comfortable reach.
WSUK runs Temu fulfilment for sellers across Corby and the wider Northamptonshire: UK stock holding, container unloading and inspection, same-day domestic despatch with tracking returned to the channel, and returns opened and graded back into sellable stock rather than written off.

Local answers for Corby, plus the questions every temu fulfilment client asks.
It does. The old steelworks left large, well-serviced sites and a workforce accustomed to industrial shift work. Steel and metals processing continues alongside food production and distribution, giving Corby an unusually deep industrial character for its size.
Earlstrees Industrial Estate is the obvious starting point - it's the largest and most established, home to national retailers and 3PLs. Weldon and Willowbrook add further capacity nearby, so there's genuine choice for large-footprint warehousing.
Via the A43, which runs down to the A14 within a short drive. The A14 is the main east-west corridor linking Felixstowe to the M1 and M6, so Corby sits well for both east-coast port traffic and cross-country trunking.
Yes. The DIRFT and Rugby core is around forty minutes away, and the A43/A14 combination gives quick onward access to the M1 and M6. Corby works as an eastern anchor of the triangle's warehousing belt.
Kettering is very close, with Market Harborough, Wellingborough and the Rockingham area all a short hop away. That covers the northern Northamptonshire and southern Leicestershire distribution belt comfortably from an NN17 or NN18 base.
Yes. Stock is held at our Golden Triangle warehouse and orders go out on a UK domestic service the same working day against a 4pm cut-off, with tracking returned to the channel — which is the whole point of the local seller model versus shipping each order from overseas.
Yes — every inbound container or pallet reaching us from Corby or direct from your supplier is counted against your PO and inspected, with damage sampling and same-day photo evidence on any discrepancy. Goods-in and QC is from £75 per container.
Picks from £1.00 under 3kg, £1.50 for 3–19.99kg and £3.95 for 20kg+, plus order processing from £0.35. Returns handling from £1.25 per item, palletising from £12.50, integration £150 per week. Monthly rolling, no setup fee, no minimum.
Opened, checked and graded rather than stacked in a corner. Sellable units rejoin your available stock, repacking is from £0.45, and write-offs are itemised monthly so you can see which SKUs are eating the margin.
Yes — one stock pool feeds all of them, including FBA replenishment and same-day TikTok Shop despatch. One count, one invoice, no splitting inventory between channels.
