E-commerce inventory counting UK

E-commerce and 3PL warehouse stocktaking

Independent, location-controlled physical counts for online retailers, fulfilment operations and third-party logistics warehouses, adapted to your storage and inventory data.

Physical inventory counts that fit your operation

E-commerce stock may be spread across pick faces, reserve storage, returns, quarantine and multiple sales channels. We agree the stock status, locations, identifiers and output fields before counting, then work systematically through the authorised scope.

Projects can include

  • Wall-to-wall or selected-location counts
  • Pick faces, bulk storage and reserve stock
  • Returns, quarantine or damaged stock recorded separately
  • Barcode, SKU or agreed product-reference capture
  • Blind counts where the project requires them
  • Outputs structured for reconciliation with your inventory file

Frequently asked questions

Can you work with our SKU or barcode file?

Yes. We review the available data and required output fields in advance, including how unknown, duplicate or unreadable identifiers should be treated.

Can you count while orders are being processed?

Sometimes, but stock movement requires strong controls. A pause, cut-off or documented movement process is normally preferable for dependable reconciliation.

Who provides access equipment?

The client normally provides authorised operators and suitable equipment for high racking or restricted areas unless another arrangement is agreed.
