Pick & Pack
One
of our most valuable services that we offer at Boyd Commercial
would be the Pick and Pack option. Many of our customers ship
us items that need to be broken down for individual shipments
to their clients.
When we received skids of product for pick and pack services,
we breakdown the count and prepare the product in cartons
for individual shipments. This makes it easier for the customer
to place orders for the different items and for different
customers.
When multiple shipments come in with the same product we
try to make sure they all get received in the same area. This
allows for easier access to pick and pack for preparation
to send the order out. Preparation of the order includes proper
shipment packaging, documents and notifying the courier/driver
that there is an order ready for shipment. We usually have
the order out within a 24 hour period.
Kitting
Kitting
is a very exact and precise count of specific items that need
was requested by our customer to be prepared in kit packaging
for safe keeping and shipment. Kit packaging includes cartons
and shrink wrap. When we are receiving items for a kitting
order we will prepared your items in our warehouse for maximum
efficiency in order to pick the kit.
Cross-Docking
Another valuable service we have here at Boyd Commercial
is Cross-Docking. It is an ideal service when a company does
not have access to a loading dock that can handle a 53’
transport trailer they can rely on our many loading docks.
Once the inventory is off loaded it is placed into the staging
area and the customer is called as a notification that they
product has arrived and is ready to be picked up.
This service is also useful to many custom order companies
who do not carry overhead inventory because their products
are custom made. They ship their products to us and once it
arrives at our warehouse they can deliver it to their client.
By cross-docking the items it saves you storage fees and
labour. Cross docking eases the process between manufacturer
and supplier.
