A long-established business model is for a private warehouse to bring a load in from a retailer and process it in multiple ways.  One way is to break the load down and sell it by the partial truckload or the pallet.  There are significant overhead costs added to the items with this form of processing.  Premium items are removed from the load and sold off at the retail level online or at the warehouse.  This practice devalues the load.  There are costs that are added to the cost of the loads including warehouse overhead, handling by paid staff, shipping from the retailer to the warehouse, profit to the warehouse and more.  Your cost on the load could be the same or even lower than a direct shipped load.  The big issue is you don’t know what was removed from the load by the private warehouse before shipping to you.

Many of these private warehouses exist to service small quantity buyers.  Most liquidation merchandise comes in full truckloads from the retailer’s facility.  The private warehouses can offer partial truckloads or pallets but they will have a heap of costs added to them so the prices of the merchandise needs to be raised significantly or premium items removed and sold off by the private warehouse to make the business work.

Direct Shipments
These are simply Liquidation Truckloads that are shipped directly from the retailer or jobber directly to the end user.  No private warehouses, no middlemen.  These loads may cost the same as those from middlemen’s warehouses but are not subject to the additional layer of processing and premium product removal.  This is the best way to purchase liquidation merchandise.  Most retailers are not set up to sell their liquidation inventory to individual businesses so they use companies like All Prime Products to do it.  We ship the merchandise direct to you with no middleman monkey business.
