Abstract: A fulfillment system is provided and includes a perishable drug filling system and a non-perishable drug filling system. A shipping station is provided for delivering the coolers and the boxes to at least one delivery service. A conveyor is configured to move the boxes and the coolers from the drug filling systems to the shipping station. A decision station is located along the conveyor and is configured to determine if a container on the conveyor is a cooler or a box. The conveyor is configured to direct the coolers to a shrink wrap station and to direct the boxes to the shipping station while bypassing the shrink wrap station. The shrink wrap station is configured to apply a wrapper around the cooler and apply heat to the wrapper to shrink the wrapper around the cooler with the wrapper having a transparent section over a label on the cooler.
