The best means somewhere that meets your product’s storage requirements, is in a good location, has scalability to you and your customer’s needs, and is priced to suit your budget. You need to work with a transportation and warehousing company that you can trust to store and ship your product, safely and efficiently. Making the right choice is essential for your company’s bottom line.

Storage Standards

You want your goods protected and you want them kept in a clean and organized location. As expected inventory control is of prime importance. Especially when it comes to food products, lot controlled items and even dangerous goods. It’s important to research a facility’s history of safe storage and meeting necessary standards for storage of all items including those that may degrade under the wrong conditions.

Location, Location, Location…

To whom your product is transported is another important factor in your decision. Your chosen warehouse should be located near the regions you serve to more quickly reach your clients. This reduces transportation costs and shortens order delivery time. If your warehouse is also your transportation provider this will also greatly reduce order to delivery time and increase your flexibility with deliveries and load consolidation further driving down your costs.

Costs

Your costs are always a top consideration. You have to fit the right warehouse partner into your budget. Make sure you understand the costs provided up front and how they are applied and that there are no hidden fees. Negotiate your way to the best price for all the services you need and ensure nothing extra is added.
