Many growing E-commerce operations, manufacturers, online retailers, and those selling through catalogs are steering away from the high cost/ high maintenance duties associated with ‘in house’ warehouse, transportation, pick & pack, and shipping services. Many are choosing a more efficient path by utilizing a fulfillment operation - often referred to as third party logistics, or 3PL. This endeavor typically translates to a substantial cost savings for companies who would ordinarily have to lease space, purchase packing materials, as well as equipment- then pay high shipping costs because of low volume. For the small company who lacks space for building a warehouse or the finances to procure a larger building and the additional infrastructure– we know these costs can often become prohibitive, Crystal Creek Logistics offers a viable alternative- we offer you a new strategic partnership. WE MAKE IT HAPPEN... We enjoy solid relationships with shipping partners; Fedex, UPS, USPS, and Purolator
