Why Outsource?

Using a 3pl service can reduce operating costs significantly by removing warehousing costs and burdens from a manufacturer. This allows your firm to focus on its core competencies instead of warehousing, fulfillment and logistics. A typical 20,000-30,000 square feet warehouse in Charlotte, NC will have an average lease of 3 years and a cost of usually $10,000-$20,000 per month in rent (if not much, much more). Bonding insurance can be as much as $3,000 per month depending on the warehouse’s location, it’s facilities, and the replacement cost of your products. Typical small warehouses need to employ at least 3 employees full-time, which will cost at bare minimum $75,000+ for a qualified staff per year. If your company moves large volumes of stock seasonally and needs to employ seasonal or temporary staff, your payroll and insurance rate will increase. These costs, along with actually running the warehouse operations, are just a small part of what we have termed the “aggravation factor” of warehousing and fulfillment. If you are in the market for a warehouse or a warehousing provider, give us a call or email to determine which is right for your company.
