Every summer is a favorite pool season for Americans. As temperatures climb, home and community pools become popular escapes from the heat, driving a surge in purchases of accessories like pool cleaning equipment, water quality monitors, inflatable toys, and pool lighting. In August and September, as American universities begin their semesters, small swimming pools in dormitories and apartment complexes become popular social gatherings for students. This dual consumer boom, fueled by the "summer + back-to-school" season, continues to drive demand for pool-related products in the US.

Demand for US pool equipment is strong, and accessories are in high demand.

According to a report released by Market Research Future, the global pool equipment market reached $7.6 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach $13.4 billion by 2032, with a compound annual growth rate of 6.5%. The US, the world's largest pool market, holds over 40% of the market share, encompassing diverse scenarios such as residential, commercial, and water parks. According to Statista data, approximately 10.7 million households in the United States own a private pool, a number that has continued to grow even after the pandemic, particularly in sunny Southern states like California, Florida, and Texas.

With increasing pool usage, the pool accessories category has also expanded rapidly, including but not limited to:

Functional equipment such as water quality testing tools, water pumps, and vacuum cleaners;

Entertainment accessories such as inflatable floats, swim rings, and water guns;

Safety and aesthetic accessories such as sunscreen curtains, pool lights, and fences;

Consumables such as filters and maintenance tools.

On platforms like Amazon and Walmart, searches for pool-related categories continue to rise from May to August each year. According to JungleScout data, searches for the keyword "pool cleaner" in the US reached 180,000 in June 2024 alone, and searches for "inflatable pool toys" exceeded 110,000, demonstrating that pool accessories have a clear peak season in the summer.

Accessories place higher demands on logistics.

Swimming pool equipment and accessories are characterized by their diverse variety and wide range of sizes. Some products contain motors, batteries, or metal components, making them sensitive or heavy goods. These products also place specific demands on the storage environment and delivery efficiency.

Cross-border direct shipping struggles to cope with the sudden surge in orders during peak season and is also prone to impacting the customer experience due to customs clearance delays and unstable logistics. Therefore, establishing a US-based overseas warehouse, pre-stocking inventory, and enabling drop shipping are key to improving fulfillment efficiency.

U-Speed US overseas warehouses: Providing Strong Support for Drop Shipping of Swimming Pool Equipment

U-Speed operates its own overseas warehouses on both the East and West Coasts of the United States, totaling 20,000 square meters, covering a nationwide delivery network. The West Coast warehouse is located near the Port of Los Angeles, while the East Coast warehouse serves the Southeast and Central markets. This strategic layout ensures efficient distribution of swimming pool accessories.

Compatible with all product categories, meeting all your pool equipment needs.

U-Speed's US overseas warehouse accepts everything from electric pump motors and smart controllers to larger pool covers and ladders. We support general merchandise, sensitive goods, and battery-only products, helping sellers circumvent logistics restrictions and reduce the risk of violations.

Our overseas warehouse also accepts cosmetics, making it ideal for sellers specializing in pool beauty and care products to conduct business simultaneously.

The drop shipping system directly connects to major platforms for efficient operation.

U-Speed's drop shipping system is integrated with multiple major platforms, including TEMU, TikTok Shop, SHEIN, and AliExpress. It supports platform-based order placement and automatically synchronizes orders with the backend, offering simple and efficient operation and significantly reducing manual processing errors.

Even with complex pool accessory SKUs and high-volume shipments, the system allows for real-time inventory monitoring and streamlined inbound and outbound operations, effectively controlling inventory turnover and reducing the risk of unsold goods.

Standardized warehouse operations ensure efficient outbound shipping.

U-Speed's warehouses are managed entirely by a Chinese team, and their operational processes strictly adhere to SOP standards. All packages are shipped out within 24 hours, with an average daily processing capacity of up to 100,000 pieces, ensuring rapid order processing during peak seasons.

Our independently developed WMS system features powerful data export and dynamic update capabilities, enabling SKU segmentation for pool products, improving the processing efficiency of high-frequency items and enhancing customer satisfaction.

Timely returns, exchanges, and replenishments safeguard brand reputation.

Swimming pool equipment returns are common, especially for electronic products or structural parts requiring on-site installation. U-Speed's US warehouse features a dedicated return, exchange, and replenishment service module, completing return processing and data upload within 48 hours. It also supports relabeling and restocking, minimizing resource waste and reducing customer churn.

Why are professional overseas warehouses more suitable for the swimming pool category?

In the US market, consumers of swimming pool equipment are mostly middle- and high-end consumers who value product quality and service experience. Long delivery times for cross-border orders and untimely after-sales response can easily lead to complaints, order cancellations, and even platform point deductions.

Therefore, choosing a US-based overseas warehouse that can consistently provide a full-service chain of services, including "stocking + distribution + returns and exchanges + after-sales," not only reduces logistics costs but also enhances brand reputation and repeat purchase rates.

U-Speed's US overseas warehouse, with its nationwide warehousing and distribution capabilities, intelligent system management, and platform integration capabilities, has become the preferred choice for many cross-border brands exporting swimming pool accessories.
