What it means

Heavy Bulky (HB) products are large and heavy items with higher shipping and logistics costs such as furniture, machinery, or appliances. Amazon charges additional fees for HB products and has special shipping requirements. Sellers must factor HB fees into their pricing since they significantly impact the profitability of these product categories.
