What shipping speeds and zones does Coasters cover, especially for alcohol?
Coasters ensures rapid and compliant shipping across a significant portion of the United States, with 99% of orders fulfilled within 48 hours. For alcohol, our unique national network of retail liquor stores enables legal shipping to major states including NY, NJ, NE, ND, AK, NH, CT, MA, DC, IL, FL, and CA. This specialized infrastructure navigates complex state-specific regulations, providing a compliant and efficient solution for alcohol brands. For other product categories, we leverage partnerships with major carriers like UPS and FedEx to optimize delivery speeds and reach, ensuring your customers receive their orders quickly and reliably across our covered zones.
How does Coasters ensure compliant alcohol shipping compared to general 3PLs?
Coasters stands apart from general 3PLs through our unparalleled expertise and infrastructure for compliant alcohol shipping. Unlike typical fulfillment centers, we operate the first national network of licensed retail liquor stores, which legally facilitates direct-to-consumer alcohol sales. This proprietary system ensures every order adheres to complex state-specific regulations, including age verification and tax compliance, mitigating significant legal risks for brands. General 3PLs often lack this specialized licensing and regulatory knowledge, making them unsuitable for alcohol. Our dedicated compliance team and established network provide a secure, legal, and scalable solution for alcohol brands to reach their customers nationwide.
