MtThe Ugly Truth: Packaging Waste Is a Logistics Heartbreaker
Logistics is drowning in packaging waste. Every day, thousands of boxes are broken down, tossed out, landfilled or forgotten and the worst part? Most of them were totally reusable. Perfectly good. Maybe—even better—than the overpriced, brand-new ones you just ordered. In other words, smarter packaging doesn’t have to come with a premium price tag. In fact, it might already be sitting in your warehouse, waiting for a second chance. We’re talking millions of dollars in lost packaging value every year. All heading straight to the dump—or, if we’re lucky, the recycling bin. Either way, that’s a lot of waste for something used once. And truth be told, it doesn’t have to be that way. Think about all the times this happens; returned goods, overstock, changed specs, or unused supplies. It’s like throwing money into a wood chipper but with more tape.
