Ecommerce Peak Overflow Storage

Short-term overflow and burst dispatch before a sale event.

An online retailer forecasted a sale week exceeding their own small warehouse capacity.

Challenge

Promotional stock arrived before the retailer's own pick-and-pack stations were ready to absorb volume.

They risked cancelling customer orders if dispatch could not scale for five consecutive days.

There was no local overflow space to stage inbound pallets safely.

Approach

HPS FREIGHT allocated overflow floor at Palmers Road with daily inbound and outbound manifests.

Extra dispatch shifts were booked in advance with a consistent driver pool for familiarity with the site.

Published cut-off times meant late-arriving stock rolled to the next wave with transparent communication to the retailer's staff.

Results

The sale week completed with HPS FREIGHT handling overflow dispatch throughout.

Post-event stock returned to the retailer's warehouse on scheduled pallets.

Customer promise dates were retained on the highest-volume SKUs.
