Need Disposal of Overstock or Defective Items? ShipByMail Can Help!

With a primary business model that is focused on international shipments, it might seem strange to hear that some clients simply want their items destroyed. And yet, this is a reality for a portion of ShipByMail customers: they need items returned from a buyer but prefer not to invest in the additional costs of a return international shipment. There are a number of scenarios where businesses prefer to have their goods disposed of rather than returned: An international merchant needs to retrieve an item from a buyer, but the value of the item is less than the price of shipping. This means that it is more cost effective to dispose of the item than to ship it. An item is returned but is prohibited to be exported from Canada. An item is returned but is prohibited from being imported to the merchant’s country of residence. An item is returned but is simply unwanted. Whatever your reasons for wanting an item disposed of, they are [...]

Have Overstock? ShipByMail is your affordable ticket for transferring inventory out of the North American Market

If you have an international business with inventory in Canada or the US, you’ll know that it isn’t always easy to predict what volume of goods you’ll need and when. Even for online merchants, the management of inventory can be tricky at the best of times. As businesses, we buy when it’s affordable and sell whenever we can, but sometimes, those two different actions don’t line up perfectly. This is where ShipByMail can help! Particularly for Amazon resellers or other international e-business models that require local inventory, some businesses can get caught having too much stock that isn’t moving. The timing simply isn’t right. Rather than accruing heavy storage fees to keep your items where they are, it is often smarter to either move items to a more affordable storage location or also move them out of the region entirely. If you’re an international business working in North America,ShipByMail is your secret tool for [...]
