Amazon Truckloads Explained

Understanding the Different Types of Amazon Liquidation Truckloads
Complete Guide for Resellers, Exporters & Whatnot Sellers

Amazon liquidation truckloads are among the most diverse and profitable in the secondary market. Whether you’re flipping products on Whatnot, stocking your bin store, or exporting merchandise by the container, understanding the types of Amazon loads available is essential to sourcing smarter and selling faster.

Here’s a breakdown of the most common types of Amazon liquidation truckloads:

1. Amazon HPC (High Piece Count)
Truckloads filled with thousands of small merchandise items. Perfect for bin stores and Whatnot sellers who specialize in high-volume mystery boxes or bundle deals. These loads often include, food-shelf stable items, home goods, beauty items, kitchenware, small toys, and accessories. Low per-unit cost = fast ROI.

2. Mystery Box Truckloads
Unmanifested and randomized, these loads are ideal for resellers who love the thrill of surprise. Expect a broad mix of categories in varied conditions. Perfect for Whatnot sellers who market blind boxes and grab-bag style auctions.

3. Amazon Mediums
Mid-size, general merchandise items from returns, shelf pulls, and overstock. Easier to handle than large-item loads, they’re great for sellers who want balanced, manageable inventory across multiple categories—like beauty, toys, home, and seasonal goods.

4. Talls / Monsters
Oversized gaylords filled with a wide range of large-volume, mixed-category merchandise. These loads are stacked high with high-quantity, general merchandise. Ideal for bulk resale, bin stores, warehouse clearance events, or high-traffic Whatnot streams.

5. Coffin Boxes (Unmanifested Raw Loads)
Tall, narrow boxes packed with a surprise mix of Amazon returns or shelf pulls. Often referred to as “raw” loads due to the lack of manifests and sorting. These are excellent for adventurous resellers who enjoy processing unfiltered inventory and flipping unknowns. Great for blind unboxing shows or liquidation-style Whatnot drops.

6. Clothing Loads
Apparel truckloads featuring men’s, women’s, and kids’ clothing. Usually a mix of shelf pulls and returns. Ideal for fashion-focused resellers, exporters, and Whatnot clothing auctions where bundles, size runs, or surprise pieces are sold.

7. Shoe Loads
Mixed footwear including sneakers, sandals, boots, and casual shoes. Loads may contain returns and shelf pulls across all sizes and genders. Highly popular with fashion resellers and live Whatnot streams.

8. Electronics Loads
Consumer electronics like Bluetooth speakers, headphones, smart home gadgets, and gaming accessories. These loads offer strong profit margins, especially if you're comfortable testing or refurbishing items. Excellent for tech-focused Whatnot sellers.

9. Amazon LPN Loads
Each item has an LPN (License Plate Number) label, indicating it was individually processed and returned. These unmanifested loads often contain valuable goods in varied conditions. Ideal for hands-on sellers who inspect, test, and repackage.

10. Amazon FC Loads (Fulfillment Center)
Typically composed of shelf pulls, overstocks, and inventory removed from Amazon warehouses. Often includes new or like-new items, retail-ready and cleaner than typical returns.

11. Amazon LPN/FC Mixed Loads
Hybrid truckloads that combine Amazon LPN returns with FC shelf pulls and overstocks. Offers both volume and quality—excellent for resellers who want diversity in condition and product type.

Whatnot Seller Tip:

• Use Amazon HPC or Mystery Loads for blind boxes and high-volume bundle shows
• Try Coffin Boxes and Raw Talls for exciting live unboxings
• Source Clothing, Shoes, or Electronics for themed niche shows
• Opt for LPN/FC Loads when seeking higher-quality resale-ready merchandise
