What We Offer

A Number You Can Actually Trade On

Inventory accuracy is not a warehouse vanity metric. It is what decides whether you oversell, over-order, or discover a problem at year end.

Perpetual Cycle Counting

A rolling programme that counts fast-moving lines often and everything periodically — instead of one disruptive annual stocktake that tells you about last year.

  • High-velocity SKUs counted more often
  • No shutdown for stocktake
  • Count history retained per SKU

Variance Investigated, Not Absorbed

When a count disagrees with the system we find out why — mis-pick, mis-receipt, damage, theft — because the reason is worth more than the adjustment.

  • Root cause recorded per variance
  • Adjustments authorised, not automatic
  • Trend reporting by cause

Replenishment & Reporting

Min/max levels set with you and alerted against, plus SKU, batch and expiry reporting so slow movers and short-dated stock surface early.

  • Min/max reorder alerts
  • Batch & expiry tracking
  • Ageing and slow-mover reports

Local Coverage

Inventory Management in Tamworth — Staffordshire Local Knowledge

Tamworth stakes its logistics reputation on Relay Park, a landmark distribution address that has become one of the most recognisable big-shed locations in the Midlands. Sitting across the B77-B79 postcodes in Staffordshire, the town commands a genuinely strong road position: the M42 at Junction 10, the historic A5 Watling Street and the M6 Toll at T3 all converge here, giving national operators fast, congestion-avoiding access in every direction. National distribution, logistics and manufacturing form the backbone of local employment.

Beyond Relay Park, the Tame Valley Industrial Estate and the Amington area add further industrial and warehousing capacity, spreading logistics activity across the town rather than concentrating it in one spot. The M6 Toll is the quiet advantage - offering a reliable bypass of the notoriously congested Birmingham stretch of the M6 - while the A5 provides an alternative trunk route east and west. Neighbours Lichfield, Cannock, Nuneaton and Atherstone share the same distribution-corridor character, reinforcing this northern Warwickshire-Staffordshire border as serious warehousing country.

From Tamworth, the DIRFT and Rugby core is around forty minutes away, placing the town on the north-western reach of the Golden Triangle. That drive-time keeps Tamworth firmly within the national distribution catchment while giving it the added edge of M6 Toll access for operators who value predictable transit over the shortest theoretical route. With Relay Park's scale, three strategic road links and neighbouring logistics towns all around, Tamworth earns its standing as a heavyweight Midlands distribution address.

WSUK holds located stock for businesses across Tamworth and Staffordshire with min/max reorder alerts and ageing reports. The practical benefit is not the counting itself — it is that buying stops being a guess and overselling stops being a monthly event.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Local answers for Tamworth, plus the questions every inventory management client asks.

Why is Relay Park significant for Tamworth?

Relay Park is a landmark national distribution address and Tamworth's flagship logistics location, drawing major operators to its big-shed units. Sitting by the M42 J10 and A5, it's a prime base for warehousing serving the whole Midlands and beyond.

What road links does Tamworth offer hauliers?

The M42 at Junction 10, the A5 Watling Street and the M6 Toll at T3 all meet at Tamworth. That gives operators fast, flexible routing across the B77-B79 area, with the Toll offering a reliable alternative to the congested M6 through Birmingham.

Does the M6 Toll help distribution from Tamworth?

Considerably. The M6 Toll (T3) lets Tamworth-based vehicles bypass the heavily congested Birmingham stretch of the M6, giving more predictable transit times - a real advantage for scheduled national distribution and time-critical loads.

Which estates besides Relay Park suit storage in Tamworth?

Tame Valley Industrial Estate and the Amington area both provide industrial and warehousing space, spreading capacity across the town. The best fit depends on unit size and whether you need Relay Park's motorway-front profile or a more standard industrial setting.

How far is Tamworth from the Rugby and DIRFT core?

About forty minutes via the M42 and A5 links. That puts Tamworth on the north-western edge of the Golden Triangle, well within national distribution range and with the bonus of M6 Toll access for smoother southern transits.

How do you keep stock accurate for Tamworth businesses?

Fixed locations, barcode verification on every pick, and a perpetual cycle-count programme weighted so your fastest-moving SKUs are checked most often. We work to 99.5%+ on managed accounts.

Do we have to shut down for a stocktake?

No. Counting runs continuously against the live operation, so there is no stocktake weekend, no overtime and no backlog afterwards. Full wall-to-wall counts are available separately if an audit needs one.

What happens when a count does not match?

It is investigated before anything is adjusted, and the cause is recorded — mis-pick, mis-receipt, damage, short delivery. You authorise the adjustment. The cause report is what stops it recurring.

Can you track batches and expiry dates?

Yes — batch, lot and expiry tracked where your products need it, with short-dated stock flagged while it can still be sold.

What does it cost?

Located storage with cycle counting from £4.50 per pallet per week, reporting and integration from £150 per week, full stocktakes quoted per count. Monthly rolling, no setup fee.

"Relay Park is the reason we chose Tamworth. Straight onto the M42, and the M6 Toll lets us skip the Birmingham crawl entirely. Our southbound schedules have never been more predictable. First-class distribution address."

Neil Ashcroft

Transport Manager, national retailer · Tamworth

★★★★★

"We store from a Tame Valley base and the road choice is superb. M42 J10, the A5 and the M6 Toll on tap means we route around problems instead of sitting in them. Covering Lichfield and Cannock from here is effortless too."
