I work in internal logistics for a corporation. All of our accounts are F500 companies, so super fast paced and lots to learn. Before this job, I only had domestic logistics experience. I do 99% int’l logistics in my current role, however, there was no job training. I got tossed into the water and had to learn to swim. I’m almost done with my Logistics and Supply Chain degree, but applying the classroom knowledge to real world isn’t as direct of a translation. I feel like I’m still missing some basics. The issue is that I don’t know what I’m missing until something comes up and I’m not sure h ..read more

Hey everyone, I'm looking for a reliable 3PL partner to help us handle returns for our business. Just to give you a heads up, we're currently dealing with an inflatable bubble house set. It's pretty big, with box dimensions of about 76 cm x 54 cm x 45 cm / 30" x 21.3" x 17.72", and weighs around 90 lbs. Right now, we've only got 2 units to handle, but we're expecting more down the line. Also, our company owner is based in Europe, so we're specifically looking for a reliable 3PL company based in the US to handle these returns. At the moment, we don't need any refurbishing.

Maersk refuses company registration without a valid VAT number I went to Shaolin and purchased 660KGS of goods to ship to Europe. Now that our goods have been purchased and manufactured, we’ve hit a stumbling block with regards to shipping. I searched for LCL shipping quotes from Shaolin to Felixstowe. The only shipping company which appears to still do LCL shipping is Maersk. All the other companies only offered our company FCL shipping at over $2,500 per container. Maersk provided us with a decent quote. We registered with Maersk, provided them with our EORI number, company details etc. The ..read more

I work at a paint manufacturer that works with a median delivery size of about 120L/150KG so in a lot of cases we're being forced to mix several clients in a single pallet to maximize VFR. We use semi-trucks to deliver the most deliveries for the least cost. This raises a lot of issues of course, mainly complaints due to damaged goods and picking errors. ​ I've been trying to get to a solution that doesn't involve using couriers (not allowed due to costs) and doesn't involve budget overruns associated to using stuff like boxes but I can't think of a single thing. ​ ​ Has anyone experienced th ..read more

Hello all! ​ Sorry if this is the wrong place to post. ​ The company I work for is starting a ECommerce site and I'm tasked with finding a company/app that can give us quotes quickly. It'll also have to be able to import CSP files for our inventory. Extra bonus if it's link-able to Shopify since we are using that site. ​ Again, sorry if this isn't the place to post this. Any advice helps, as I've been goolging for hours and can't seem to find what I'm looking for. submitted by /u/PianoMannnn [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
