How the volume programme works
- Your first order is one skid. That is 56 rolls of house wrap, or one pallet mixing the lines you use most: wrap, silicone, nails, staples and brads.
- You pay a deposit to place it. We agree the delivery date in writing at the same time. The goods are released when you pay the balance. There is no account to open.
- Book a quarter ahead. Delivery is about 90 days, delivered, to your yard or the job. Crews on the programme book their skids a quarter at a time.
- The quote is per unit. It comes back line by line, so you can set each line against what you pay now.
Send the list you buy every week. The same spec comes back quoted, line by line.
An invoice, a photo of the shelf, or a few lines typed here all work.
We sell by the skid. If your crew uses less than one skid of these lines a quarter, we are probably not a fit yet, and we will tell you.
Read by a person at Crateworks, not a queue. Replies go out within one business day from sales@gocrateworks.com.
How quoting works
- Send what you buy every week, in any form you have it.
- A line-by-line quote comes back within five business days at the same spec, with the data sheets. If it does not beat what you pay now, we say so.
- The first order is a pallet of the lines you use most, placed with a deposit, and the delivery date is agreed in writing at the same time. Goods are released on payment of the balance. Then you order to your own cadence.
