Looking At Warehouse Shelving

Sep 27, 2009 by

So if you remeber this month I have been focuses on getting ready to start storing my own products. Well the month is almost over and I am very happy with what has been done this month. I currently have very little errors in my php logs, all of my websites are working fine, i finnally got all my sites PCI compliant, the developerhut.com backend is all updated and I can now do everything I need to with that backend, and now its on to the fun part…

I decided that I don’t want to move that fast with this, I want to do some research and see what the best way to receive orders then ship them off. One of my friends mentioned using Endicia, but I am more looking into coding my own system with USPS’s api. I need to research that and then deicde on a solution soon. Anyone have any suggestions or feedback about that?

I am still looking for a place to rent, I need a place that has either 1 big room and an office or a few rooms because of the amount of shit I have to store and the sizes of the products. I also decided that I will be waiting at least another 2-3 before I start leasing a place, I actually wanted to get everything set up in my house for a few months so I can test everything out and get the system down.

For the first month or two I will be storing my smaller products at my casa, I am turning the bedroom next to my office into the “warehouse part”, it will consist of 2 BIN shelving and then 1-2 regular shelving, and then a big table to do all the packaging on.

I have been looking around for the best deals on shelving, and I think I found the best deal on ebay for what I need, I did a lot of research and I am pretty sure that the below shelving is what I will be purchasing this week:

2x BIN: Click here

1x big racking

1x small for office supplies

(These are actually just for one of the small products I have, I wont be able to store all of my products because of the space)

Well that is all I have today, its sunday and I’m gonna be relaxing today
