  truck will pull up to the loading dock and the
  dockworkers come out and quickly unload the
  truck. At that point the goods wait for another
  local truck to pick up the materials to be taken
  to the retail store to be stocked on the shelves
  and sold.

  of your orders based on the needs and
  requirements of the markets they delivering to.

  setup with a monthly rate per square footage.

  changes for seasonal swings.

  current holdings of the space, the square footage
  is contracted to you. If pallets need to be
  shifted, a fulfillment setup or quality checks
  need to be performed, then investing in
  contracted warehouse space is a must. The scope
  of what needs to be done can be discussed when
  the contract is created.
