5 BENEFITS OF HIRING A WAREHOUSING & LOGISTICS PROVIDER
Using a temporary warehouse can be a boon to your business and help with cost optimization. Many companies choose an external warehouse solution to improve efficiency and make inventory management more effortless. Here are 5 benefits of hiring a warehousing & logistics service provider.
Utilizing a temporary storage option helps avoid the extra expense of leasing or purchasing a warehouse of your own. If you were to purchase a warehouse, you now have the space AND the additional expense of staffing, maintenance, insurance, and technology. With a third-party warehouse and logistics provider, it’s all part of the deal.
Flexibility is key for businesses that experience regular fluctuations in their output. A third-party warehouse provider gives you space that you can keep and use during peak times and release during slow periods. Pay for what you need and always have available space to grow into when the time is right.
Warehouse companies can manage inventory, shipping, and related activities at a lower cost and a higher rate of efficiency than most of their clients. Depending on the space you need, these warehouses have commodities from multiple clients in them, which reduces the cost to each.
A company like Delivery Express Logistics, ensures its customers save transportation costs because we can handle all of the transportation. Our multiple locations, offer cross-docking and order fulfillment. We contract with over 100 independent carriers. We match your freight to the right vehicle type and our fleet consists of all vehicle types ranging from cars to 53’ trucks and everything in between.
If you have chosen wisely, you will have partnered with a company staffed with logistics experts who are supported by customer service professionals. Third-party logistics companies offer a wide range of warehouse services from cross-docking to fulfillment to transportation. If your clients need overnight transportation of goods for the next morning or weekly scheduled support, then third-party logistics companies can support your needs. Many, like Delivery Express Logistics, offer service 24/7 365.
To put it simply, by entrusting your warehouse management to a third-party service provider, you have the power to improve efficiency, reduce costs, and remain focused on your core business.
