Dimensioning Service
Warehouse Dimensioning Services
Accurate product dimensions and weights are essential for managing inventory, warehouse space, packaging, and shipping costs. H and M Services provides warehouse dimensioning services to help warehouses, distribution centers, and manufacturers collect accurate dimensional data and weight data for the products and SKUs they store and ship.
Whether you need to dimension a specific group of products or thousands of SKUs throughout a warehouse, our team can perform the work on-site and provide the information you need to maintain accurate product data and make better operational decisions.
Product, SKU & Inventory Dimensional Data Services
Knowing exactly how much space each product occupies gives warehouse and manufacturing teams better information for managing storage, inventory and product movement.
H and M can measure and record key product and SKU information, including:
-
Length, width, and height
-
Product or package weight
-
Cubic dimensions
-
SKU and product identification
-
Other required inventory information
Our SKU dimensioning services allow us to work through large quantities of inventory systematically, helping you collect accurate product data without taking your warehouse employees away from their normal responsibilities. Accurate SKU dimensions can then be incorporated into your warehouse or inventory management system and used throughout your operation.
Dimensioning & Scanning Services
H and M uses Cubiscan technology to efficiently capture product dimensions and weights. Rather than relying solely on manual measurements, Cubiscan dimensioning equipment can help standardize the process of measuring and weighing products across large numbers of SKUs.
H and M provides scanning and dimensioning services at your warehouse, distribution center, or manufacturing facility, giving you access to the technology and manpower needed for a dimensioning project without requiring you to purchase equipment or dedicate your own employees to the project.
Compliance with Amazon Product & Shipping Requirements
Incorrect product dimensions or weights can create problems when inventory is prepared for fulfillment through Amazon.
Accurate product and package measurements give your business better information for meeting Amazon's applicable product, packaging, and shipping requirements. Dimensioning can also help identify inaccurate or outdated product data before inventory enters the fulfillment process.
For businesses shipping a large number of products through Amazon and other online retailers, establishing reliable dimensional data across your SKUs can help make compliance part of the inventory process rather than something addressed after a problem occurs.
Go Beyond Tape Measures for Better Warehouse Space Utilization
How much warehouse space does your inventory actually require?
Accurate SKU dimensions can provide better information for determining how products fit within racks, shelves, bins, pallets, and other storage locations.
Dimensioning data can help warehouse teams:
-
Evaluate warehouse space utilization
-
Improve product slotting decisions
-
Identify appropriate storage locations
-
Plan for changing inventory requirements
-
Better understand warehouse capacity
-
Reduce wasted storage space
Instead of estimating how much room products require, your warehouse team can make storage decisions using actual product measurements.
Warehouse Inventory Counting Options
Every warehouse has different inventory needs. H and M Services can perform wall-to-wall, partial, and cycle counts, allowing your inventory program to match your operational requirements, reporting needs, and schedule.
Reduce Shipping & Packaging Costs
Product dimensions and weight can directly affect packaging and shipping decisions.
Accurate dimensional information can help your team select appropriately sized packaging, calculate shipping requirements, and identify products where oversized packaging may be adding unnecessary cost.
Reliable product dimensions can help businesses:
-
Choose more appropriate packaging
-
Reduce unnecessary packaging space
-
Improve shipping cost estimates
-
Account for dimensional weight
-
Improve carton and package selection
-
Maintain more accurate shipping data
When you're manufacturing, storing, and shipping hundreds or thousands of products, small inaccuracies in dimensions, weights, or packaging decisions can become much larger operational expenses.
