STOP DROWNING IN CARDBOARD: SPRINGPACK'S SMART PACKAGING STOCK HOLDING
The Hidden Costs of Packaging Overstock
You’re a warehouse manager, juggling inventory, shipments, and staff, all while trying to keep your operations running like a well-oiled machine. Now imagine adding an extra layer of complexity: excess packaging material cluttering up your valuable warehouse space.
This isn’t just an eyesore; it’s a genuine headache for operations managers and warehouse managers alike. It’s the “stuff” that isn’t directly related to your core products, but without it, your products can’t be safely shipped. We’re talking about pallets, cardboard boxes, void fill, shrink wrap, and all the various custom packaging solutions you need to protect your goods.

The Hidden Costs of Packaging Overstock
- Wasted Space: Every square foot of your warehouse has a cost. When it’s filled with static packaging inventory, that’s space you can’t use for revenue-generating products. This can lead to needing more storage, potentially incurring higher rental costs or delaying growth.
- Operational Inefficiency: Navigating around mountains of packaging materials slows down your team. It hinders efficient picking and packing, leading to longer processing times and increased labour costs.
- Damage and Obsolescence: Stored packaging is susceptible to damage from dust, moisture, or accidental knocks. Plus, if your product lines or branding change, you could be left with obsolete packaging that represents a complete loss.
- Inventory Management Headaches: Tracking and managing packaging inventory adds another layer of complexity to your existing systems. It diverts resources from managing your core product inventory.
- Cash Flow Tied Up: Every piece of packaging you’ve purchased and stored represents capital that’s tied up, rather than being invested back into your business.
