We had an e-commerce store selling toys. I had 400+ individual items in the basement of our house. I picked, packed, and shipped by myself. I can tell you that about 30 orders per day was my limit because I was also answering emails, ordering, receiving, doing inventory, etc. It is not for the faint of heart but I also don't think I would have trusted someone else doing it. It's what you are comfortable with but it has to make financial sense.

So in your opinion when should I start looking for a 3PL?
