Small businesses in Louisville often start with very basic facilities. As they grow and expand or take on new business or need more inventory and storage, the need to find some type of warehouse facility often becomes a pressing concern.
Rather than buying or renting a warehouse, many smart business owners are turning to logistics services through moving and relocation companies. These are an ideal option as they offer a full range of features that are typically a pay-as-you-use component, allowing the business to stay within budget. They can also be located in different states and areas, allowing for a full distribution system not possible for a small business on their own.
These facilities also have additional features for a business to consider. They are fully equipped with security systems, helping to provide full protection for all inventory or items stored on the premises. Additionally, these buildings also have state-of-the-art alarm and fire suppression systems, essential for both protection as well as to allow insurance coverage.
Inventory Management
Along with loading and unloading of items, these facilities also provide full inventory management programs. This can include a range of different services from cataloging and managing inventory control through software entry programs or by the use of bar-coded inventory control programs.
Some warehouse services will even provide project management features. This will be essential for expanding many types of businesses without having to hire additional employees and try to arrange for remote supervision and training.
Most of the top moving and relocation services are also able to manage Just-In-Time delivery services or more continual flow types of deliveries. You will be assured the trucks, drivers and equipment delivering to your customers will always represent your company with the quality of customer service and professionalism you expect. This is certainly not the case when contracting with rental services within or outside of Louisville.
