A new strategy to reduce Memphis 3PL transportation costs


There’s a reason Memphis is such a busy supply chain hub. From Tennessee, it’s easy to route products to warehouses in other parts of the country. But it’s just as easy to overdo it, spreading inventory too thinly across a national network without benefits that justify the transportation costs. 

The reality is moving inventory to multiple fulfillment centers quickly multiplies your shipping costs. It might sound good to be as close as possible to all your customers, but you don’t need to pay such high distribution costs to provide reliable fulfillment services. In fact, too many handoffs between Memphis and other locations can increase the risks of inventory loss and delays along the way. If you sell large or heavy items, these factors are amplified.

Get strategic about your logistics operations. Sending inventory from Memphis to multiple cities may not be the best way to manage speed or cost. Instead, centralizing your order fulfillment can create greater advantages for your ecommerce business—as long as you choose the right locations. 

For example, if you tried to centralize fulfillment only in Memphis, you wouldn’t reach customers on the East or West Coasts very quickly. But from Red Stag’s fulfillment center in Knoxville, a short leg away from Memphis, you can reach approximately 75% of U.S. homes within three days. With our second warehouse in Utah, you can reach 96% of U.S. homes in two days. 

This strategic allocation lets you skip the additional costs and longer lead times of having several warehouses, while still providing your customers with the fast deliveries they expect. It could be worth doing the math to see if it’s the right move for you.

3PL Memphis FAQs


Do I need Memphis warehouse space?

Maybe not. You can likely reduce overall carrying costs by consolidating stock in Knoxville, Tennessee, especially if you sell large or heavy items. .

Memphis is known as a national distribution hub, so you might route items through the city’s air, rail, and trucking nodes. But it doesn’t mean you need to invest in storage there, especially if it’s for the short term as part of a more complex distribution plan. 

From the Memphis area, it’s a short leg to Knoxville, where you could potentially lower your overall carrying and fulfillment center costs. You may find Knoxville to be better for your business.

How many fulfillment centers do I need?

If you route your products through Memphis, you can likely limit the number of fulfillment centers you need by consolidating items a short leg away in Knoxville, Tennessee.

Many companies look for a Memphis facility to act as short-term storage before breaking down larger shipments and distributing items to multiple fulfillment centers. This strategy is common, but it can be costly and complicated. 

By centralizing fulfillment with Red Stag in Knoxvillle, Tennessee, you can deliver packages to approximately three-quarters of the country in three days. If we move some of your inventory to our other fulfillment center in Utah, you can deliver to 96% of U.S. homes in two days. 

This means you could optimize how you ship with only two fulfillment centers.   

How can I save money on shipping from Memphis, TN?

You can reduce overall transportation expenses from Memphis by eliminating complex inventory splitting and instead consolidating products in Knoxville warehousing. From there, you can reach a high percentage of U.S. homes to meet consumer expectations for delivery speed. 

This strategy will likely help if you currently use Memphis as a distribution hub for more complex product routing to multiple warehouses. That additional routing increases cost without necessarily increasing supply chain benefits. In fact, over-distribution could increase the risks of shrinkage and unexpected re-routing costs if there are delays between warehouses. 

How do Red Stag Fulfillment guarantees work?

Red Stag’s fulfillment services are backed by guarantees you’re unlikely to find elsewhere in the logistics industry.

We guarantee we’ll ship 100% of your orders on time, or we’ll cover the shipment cost and pay you $50 for the inconvenience.

We also guarantee 100% order accuracy. If we ship the wrong item or wrong number of items, we’ll fix the mistake, pay the shipment cost, and pay you $50. 

Why do we pay you $50? Because fulfillment mistakes hurt your business. As your partner, we believe we should be accountable to you for the headache. This keeps our incentives aligned, so you can feel confident we have the same goals.
