Peak season is coming. For most businesses, the holiday rush translates to higher order volume, extra pressure, and the dread of doing everything wrong. But what if you could turn that pressure into a plan?

The right partner will not just enable you to survive but flourish amidst the busiest part of the year. By having a 3PL partnership, you’ll be able to slice the logistical headaches and concentrate on what you do best: expanding your business.

1. Avoid In-House Stress

Operating a high-volume warehouse during the peak  season demands specialized machinery, additional space, and flexible labor. You’re talking about: 

  • Oversized warehouse shelving systems
  • Exotic equipment such as forklifts or pallet jacks
  • Rising labor expenses
  • Freight coordination headaches

By partnering with American Warehouse Inc., you have access to space and infrastructure already established for peak season volumes, without having to invest in expensive upgrades yourself. So, you no longer pay for space and personnel you don’t need all year.

2. Take Advantage of Our Oregon Sales Tax Benefit

One of the most significant benefits of partnering with American Warehouse is our strategic location. Oregon is one of only a handful of states in the United States that has no state sales tax. This will save you and your customers a great deal of money. This eliminates the need for complex sales tax calculations, and makes your products more desirable and cost-competitive to your customers.

3. Get Better Shipping Rates

The fact that we receive high-volume shipments throughout the year enables us to negotiate lower rates with the carriers. This means you are able to capitalize on our connections and provide your customers with quick and dependable shipping for a discount.

4. Let the Details be Handled by the Experts

When the orders are pouring in, seconds count. With expert pick and pack solutions to efficient kitting and assembly, our operators are trained to manage the intricacies of your products. We’re eCommerce and omnichannel fulfillment specialists to make every order correct and shipped on time.

5. Focus on Growing Your Business

In the end, a 3PL alliance with a quality player such as American Warehouse Inc., lets you concentrate on the really important things. We do the heavy lifting in logistics, from labor and technology to delivery, so you can direct your energy toward sales, marketing, and a successful holiday season.
