Is it cheaper to deliver goods through cross-border cloud warehouse warehousing than self delivery

For cross-border e-commerce sellers, how to effectively reduce costs and increase efficiency has always been a hot topic in the industry. The use of cross-border cloud warehouse to provide corresponding warehousing and consignment services is one of the methods recognized by many cross-border e-commerce sellers. Can you really save money by using cloud warehouse to deliver goods on behalf of others?

If you want to get the final answer, we might as well first understand the cost of cloud warehouse warehousing and consignment and its corresponding role to see what changes will be brought to cross-border e-commerce sellers.

If cross-border e-commerce self built small warehouses, the following costs may be incurred:

1: The cost of renting a warehouse for self built warehouses is generally the cost of renting a warehouse, so there will be a fixed monthly cost. The final cost will be determined according to the size and geographical location of the warehouse.

2: The cost of basic hardware and consumables in the warehouse, including the cost of shelves in the warehouse, computers for daily use and related product packaging consumables, as well as the cost of trailers or forklifts required for some handling in the warehouse. A certain depreciation expense should be calculated for this expense, and the equipment should be updated at an appropriate time.

3: Water and electricity of self built warehouse, and the use cost of network equipment. For example, in hot summer, warehouse staff may need more electrical equipment (fans, air conditioners, etc.) to help improve the working environment temperature.

4: Staff costs. The salary expenses of self built warehouse staff and the corresponding welfare expenses are measured according to the actual work intensity. In general, you also need to purchase professional ERP management software to assist in management.

5: Expenses for fire protection and safety of self built warehouse, including security expenses, purchase and renewal of fire protection equipment, etc.

To sum up, the cost of cross-border e-commerce self warehouse building cannot be simply understood as low expenditure or low cost. Without the support of order volume, the above costs are very high. And with the increase of the order quantity, the expense will also increase.

The emergence of cross-border e-commerce cloud warehouses has greatly facilitated the initial transition of emerging foreign trade e-commerce sellers, because the fees for cross-border cloud warehouses are charged according to the number of orders, and the fees for less orders will be small.

Take Takesendship as an example: the operation cost of sending a single attribute order is 1 yuan. Assuming that your order quantity today is 100, the corresponding Taijia operation cost is 100 yuan. If your own warehouse staff operate, the expense may be many times of this cost.

The overall customer group of Takesendship has a very large package volume, which will greatly reduce the cost of the same logistics transportation channel. At the same time, Takesendship will also recommend and reduce the most appropriate transport channels and fees for cooperative cross-border e-commerce sellers. The expense here is not high, but it will save more logistics costs for the cooperative e-commerce sellers.
