Looking At Warehouse Shelving
September 27th, 2009 by Jon Waraas


So if you remeber this month I have been focuses on getting ready to start storing my own products. Well the month is almost over and I am very happy with what has been done this month. I currently have very little errors in my php logs, all of my websites are working fine, i finnally got all my sites PCI compliant, the developerhut.com backend is all updated and I can now do everything I need to with that backend, and now its on to the fun part…

I decided that I don’t want to move that fast with this, I want to do some research and see what the best way to receive orders then ship them off. One of my friends mentioned using Endicia, but I am more looking into coding my own system with USPS’s api. I need to research that and then deicde on a solution soon. Anyone have any suggestions or feedback about that?

I am still looking for a place to rent, I need a place that has either 1 big room and an office or a few rooms because of the amount of shit I have to store and the sizes of the products. I also decided that I will be waiting at least another 2-3 before I start leasing a place, I actually wanted to get everything set up in my house for a few months so I can test everything out and get the system down.

For the first month or two I will be storing my smaller products at my casa, I am turning the bedroom next to my office into the “warehouse part”, it will consist of 2 BIN shelving and then 1-2 regular shelving, and then a big table to do all the packaging on.

I have been looking around for the best deals on shelving, and I think I found the best deal on ebay for what I need, I did a lot of research and I am pretty sure that the below shelving is what I will be purchasing this week:

2x BIN: Click here

1x big racking

1x small for office supplies

(These are actually just for one of the small products I have, I wont be able to store all of my products because of the space)

Well that is all I have today, its sunday and I’m gonna be relaxing today :)

Follow me on my journey of success and failures, it should be a fun ride.... Again, here is the link for the RSS feed.

Hey Jon!
I hope you finish all your work you had planned. You may not know but publically announcing your future tasks, just the way you did on your blog, increase your urgency & willingness to finish it. Great stuff, right?

Jon, dude, I’m impressed by all of the coding stuff you do. Where the heck did you learn to code and how can a n00b like me learn it too?

Graphing all the inequalities on the xy-plane yields a region of possible solutions that meets all of your requirements. To find the solution that minimizes cost, there is a theorem that states it must be a point in one of the corners of this region.

Ship all that you can to the southern warehouse, that would be 80 because it is cheaper and the remaining 20 to the northern warehouse. This could also be a trick question.

Finding the right distributor is very important in getting a good service from the Utility Warehouse Discount Club. The way the company works means, that the distributor who convinced you join the club is equally responsible in helping you sort out any problems you may encounter.
