Warehouse Services
Cutting-Edge Warehousing and Fulfillment Solutions
Warehouse services play a key role in managing and growing your e-commerce business. Partnering with a warehouse and fulfillment company like Tenaxx Logistics that handles your products like their own can help you to make sure that they are kept correctly and strategically.
What Are Warehouse Services?
Warehousing involves storing physical goods or inventory in a designated facility until they are ready for sale or distribution. Tenaxx Logistics and similar companies provide comprehensive warehousing services, encompassing logistics, kitting, and inventory management. From picking and packaging to shipping and storage, these services ensure efficient handling and smooth operations for businesses.

What Are The Different Types Of Warehouses?
Fulfilment, storage, and distribution are three different types of warehouses. Many of these facilities do not fit well into just one of these categories.
Fulfillment
A fulfillment warehouse offers third-party logistics services or 3PL services. E-commerce companies send the inventory to the facility. Warehouse services include product storage and order fulfillment. Many fulfillment warehouse companies also provide additional services such as inventory management and product customization. Logistics warehouses receive products and ship orders. Most 3PL warehouses serve multiple clients.
Storage
A storage warehouse is used primarily to store materials and goods. Non-commercial assets and liabilities are typically stored for safekeeping. Consider a storage facility. People put everything that no longer fits in their garage into storage because their garage is already full of other stored goods, all of which most likely has the intent to be kept long term.
Distribution
Goods are delivered in bulk to the distribution warehouses. A distribution warehouse can function as a transfer point in multi-modal transportation. Some distribution centers resell the goods they receive. Regional distribution centres are used by grocery chains to receive bulk deliveries from suppliers. The distribution center loads product assortments onto outbound trucks for delivery to specific supermarket locations. A distribution center may service just one company or many.
Tenaxx Logistics is primarily a fulfilment and distribution warehouse that offers specialised logistics, warehousing, and distribution services. We can handle product deliveries via Full Truck Loads (FTL), Less than Truck Loads (LTL), or parcels to DCs, wholesalers, shops, or end-consumers as needed.

What activities are involved in a warehouse?
“What services are typically offered in different types of warehouses, especially in a 3PL warehouse? The essential operations include receiving, picking and packing, order fulfillment, and shipping. It’s crucial to partner with warehousing providers proficient in these core activities.”
1. Receiving
Receiving, also known as inbound shipping, is a crucial step in the warehouse process. It involves checking and unloading items arriving by container or tractor-trailer. Ensuring fast and accurate receiving is essential, as it determines whether products are available for sale or face delays and backorders. Once received and logged into inventory, the warehouse team can promptly pick and pack the items, making them ready for shipment. At Tenaxx Logistics, our inbound shipping team is fully prepared to receive and log your goods swiftly and accurately, whether they come from overseas or across the country.
2. Pick & Pack
During the pick and pack process, once a customer places an order on your online store, Tenaxx Logistics’ 3PL warehouse swiftly receives the order details. Our skilled pickers locate the items from their designated spots on the shelves, while our packers select the appropriate boxes and add infill for secure shipping.
Tenaxx Logistics’ pick and pack fulfillment service guarantees prompt and accurate deliveries, allowing your business to scale efficiently while providing a superior customer experience. Benefit from strategically located warehouses near major ports, 24-hour security, dedicated order pickers, and flexible hours for seamless operations.
3. Order Fulfillment & Shipping
The third step, Order Fulfillment & Shipping, marks the final stage of the process. Once your order is packed and labeled, it heads to the shipping station. Major carriers like FedEx, UPS, and USPS visit the warehouse at various times to pick up outbound items. Once shipped, the carrier takes responsibility for delivering the items safely to your customers.
At Tenaxx Logistics, our services extend beyond the warehouse dock. We have strong partnerships with major carriers, enabling us to negotiate better shipping rates and save you money. Our commitment to your success means going the extra mile to ensure your orders are fulfilled promptly.
Specialized Warehouse Services
Many 3PL companies offer specialised warehousing services. These are just a few of the services provided by Tenaxx Logistics.
Inventory Management
Warehouse inventory management involves receiving, storing, and tracking inventory, as well as managing staff and reducing storage costs. These factors directly impact fulfillment, shipping, and customer experience. At Tenaxx Logistics, we collaborate with clients to enhance inventory management using data like sales, seasonality, and reorder timing, ensuring seamless operations and improved customer satisfaction.
Kitting
Kitting and un-kitting products help boost sales and decrease inventory. You can sell product bundles and individual items. With Tenaxx Logistics’ just-in-time kitting, our experts assemble the perfect mix for your orders, meeting your specifications precisely.
Cross Docking
Cross-docking is a logistics process that moves products directly from the supplier to the customer or retail chain without much handling or storage time. This takes place in a distribution docking terminal with limited storage space and trucks on both inbound and outgoing sides.
Tenaxx Logistics is primarily a fulfillment warehouse, providing expert logistics and warehousing services. We provide inventory storage, so there is overlap in our 3PL facility with other types of warehousing
