Common challenges of solar panels & solar batteries fulfillment & shipping to customers
01
Solar panels are large, fragile, and heavy, requiring specialized handling equipment and reinforced packaging to prevent damage during storage and transit.
02
Solar batteries contain hazardous materials and sensitive electronics that require temperature-controlled environments and shock-resistant packaging during shipping.
03
Both solar panels and batteries must comply with strict transportation regulations for hazardous materials, including proper labeling and documentation.
04
Precise shipping helps to avoid costly returns from customers with damage through the shipping process, which is particularly important with high-value solar equipment.
The Red Stag Story
Focusing on big, heavy and bulky fulfillment since 2012
In 2011, our co-founders were on their third 3PL and at their wit’s end.
Their sporting goods e-commerce company was growing rapidly. But fulfillment was a major problem— late deliveries to customers, lost inventory, and package mixups were costing them dearly—in both money and customer loyalty.
One of the problems? Their inventory was heavy and bulky. And the 3PLs were struggling with the (literal) heavy lifting.
This was the moment Red Stag was born.
And since our very first client was our owners’ sporting goods company, we purpose-built our operations to handle big, heavy, and bulky fulfillment from day 1.
Solar panels & solar batteries fulfillment isn’t the only thing we have going for us…
