Are Third Party Warehousing Services Right for Your Business?

Jul 29, 2016

As part of your business plan, you should include how you will manage warehousing, receiving, shipping and inventorying your merchandise in an effective manner. While certain companies will handle all these tasks in-house, it may not be the ideal way for you to handle them. Third party warehousing services may be the most effective method for your business when it comes to dealing with these duties efficiently each day.

The Benefits of Using a Third Party Warehousing Company

1. Third party companies for warehousing are strategically located to your company and to major transportation hubs.

2. Your company will always have sufficient warehouse space without the need to relocate. In the end, this will save your company enough money to provide you a return on your investment on the fees that the third party warehousing company charges your company.

3. Unique packaging options, including shrink wrapping, also are available at the same company that provides these warehousing services. Your company may be unaware of some of these options. Packaging brands and protects your merchandise, and when you select less than desirable methods, it can reduce your incoming revenue.

4. Reception of incoming inventory is part of these warehouse services. The third party company enters each item into your inventory and notifies you of its arrival.

5. This company also keeps accurate ongoing inventory records to ensure that your stock never goes below where it should be for demand. In addition, these records help to point out the items that you overstock and which ones you need to increase the stock on to keep an adequate supply at all times.

6. A third party warehousing company also specialises in the order fulfilment process, including picking, packing and shipping orders. By taking advantage of these services, you will not need to hire extra employees to perform the tasks on site. As a result, your payroll is less, and this allows you to use the savings to improve other areas of your company.

7. Enhanced labeling services are another benefit of your company hiring these services for its warehousing needs. Labels help to identify the location of merchandise to prevent errors in restocking the shelves or picking orders.

8. Other pertinent services also are available to help you fulfil the needs of your customers.
