How Reverse Logistics Can Help Your Business



Transporting returned items, whether because of a damaged item, wrong item, or simply because the customer didn't like the product can be a difficult process. When it comes to returning items, you often have to worry about the fact the fragile products have been removed from their original packaging, as well as the complexity of scheduling pickups from customer's homes. Home Direct's reverse logistics solution is a customizable service that allows you to recover the product value by preventing damage and mix-up in the following ways:

Direct Consolidation
You can store your merchandise in one of our warehouses, saving you money on transportation. Home Direct will prepare the products and tender to the liquidator of your choice.

Direct Liquidation
Once we have your merchandise in our warehouse, we can take care of any administrative duties so you can concentrate on other important aspects of your business. We will make sure that your items sell for the best price possible, allowing you to regain maximum liquidation value. We can price your merchandise according to market trends for salability, or you determine the price of your merchandise… the choice is yours.

Direct Refurbishment
Direct refurbishment is a great option to re-sell returned merchandise to make it look almost new, saving you money on items that you'd like to insert back into your sales cycle and selling the item as if it were brand new.

Home Direct's "Direct Recovery" solution can help save your business money, as well as boost your reputation.

Why White Glove Delivery is Ideal for City-living



For those who currently live in the city, or have lived in a city at some point in their life, you will know that moving is perhaps ten times more difficult than it is to move into the suburbs, from parking, to narrow entrances, hallways, and staircases, to multiple floors, moving is possibly the worst part about city dwelling. These common traits of apartment city living may seem quaint and definitely make for charming living spaces, until it comes time to move in or out of your apartment. With rail-thin hallways and multiple flights of stairs, it may be time to hire a professional to get the job done rather than risk your health and safety when purchasing a new large item, whether it's a new appliance or a piece of furniture.

Most damages to large items come from moving the item into your home. This happens by accidentally dropping the package due to heaviness or scraping a bulky item through a tight corner. Attempting to bring your brand new (not to mention expensive) flat-screen television into your home alone is not a risk most are willing to take, which is where white glove delivery services step in.

While white glove delivery and express delivery service may come at an additional cost, it is likely to save you money in the long run and will give you the peace of mind knowing your item is safe. By letting the professionals handle the job, you minimize the chances of damaging your item and have the weight taken off of your shoulders (literally).

The Benefits of Home Direct's Warehouse Solutions

When it comes to home delivery, it is important for businesses to use a shipping company that is not only conscious of cost, but that is also conscious of their customers' needs and has the ability to fulfill them. In order for businesses to remain within their yearly budgets and satisfy their customers with a speedy delivery of their products, they must find a shipping company like Home Direct.

Home Direct is an innovative, customer-focused home delivery company that combines fast, convenient shipping services with affordable cost. How does Home Direct accomplish this? Unlike other home delivery companies that shuffle businesses' products from warehouse to warehouse until it finally gets delivered to customers, Home Direct uses its unique warehouse and asset management solutions to cut costs and speed up delivery times. Home Direct stores businesses' products at their Consolidation Centers located across the United States, and then provides online access to their inventory as well as fulfills businesses' orders. This promotes a "quick ship" process that will help increase companies' sales. Other benefits of these warehouse solutions include about a 30% decrease in cost transportation, an improvement of transfer time of about 40%, and reduces the likelihood of damaged products due to the decrease in handling.

After experiencing the many benefits of these unique warehouse solutions, companies are sure to have no Home Direct complaints about the shipping company's quick and cost effective services. For more information about some of the company's other advanced shipping services as well as more benefits your company can enjoy, please visit Home Direct's website.
