The Importance of purchasing used and refurbished collapsible containers

Businesses all over the country store their products in our containers and pallets. We offer brand new items as well as used. Although we are happy to provide either product, we wanted to take some time to discuss the benefits to purchasing used items. With the current global warming crisis, it is always very important to reuse any products you have and also to repurpose them whenever possible. Minimizing land fill should be a top priority for everyone.

Please keep in mind that reusing an item will also save you 100% of the costs you would have delegated toward the new items. Furthermore, purchasing crates, pallets or collapsible containers that are refurbished or used, typically yields a hefty discount on the item(s). In the struggling economy we are faced with, saving money is very important, especially on business endeavors. When you have a sufficient amount of funds, you are able to purchase more items thus helping the economy.

How to Organize your Warehouse

Organizing your warehouse or work space is an essential part of running a functional business. Without rules, regulations and organization, you will not be able to do coordinate work smoothly throughout the day. For tips on establishing a functional work space, read below:

1. Label Everything. Be sure to keep a filing or storage system for all inventory and paperwork. A great deal of money and time is lost each year just from employees not being able to find what they need.

2. Compartmentalize Using Pallets and Boxes. When you divide your products and have them well organized, you find things faster and save quite a bit of space! Our new (and used!) collapsible containers are a fantastic way to get organized. They can even be customized to fit your needs.

3. Keep a Work Log. Log the amount of tasks you were able to complete in a day- subsequently time yourself. This will allow you to pin point areas that require improvement or a pivot in your operation.
