"The M6 Toll is the whole reason we base volume in Cannock. We slip past the Birmingham bottleneck on the T7 slip and our northern runs are hours more reliable. Kingswood Lakeside ticked every box."
Multi-channel fulfilment for Cannock — parcels, cases and pallets from one located pool, with live allocation so no unit is ever promised twice, via M6 (J11–J12).
One pool, every route for Cannock: eaches, cases and full pallets picked the same day, with cost to serve visible per channel. Picks from £1.00, pallets from £12.50, 45 minutes from DIRFT via M6 (J11–J12), M6 Toll (T7), A5 and A34.
Two marketplaces is an integration problem. A marketplace plus a retailer plus your own site is an allocation problem — a different and harder one.
One physical pool with availability computed live, so a trade order for 40 cases and a consumer order for one unit cannot both be promised the last pallet.
Each route keeps its own rules — marketplace cut-offs and tracking upload, D2C branded packing, retail labelling, ASN and booked delivery.
Eaches, cases and full pallets picked from the same stock on the same day, because that is what selling everywhere actually requires.
The same two tiers as every WSUK service. Short-term rate card for monthly rolling. Long-term contract rates tier down as combined volume across your channels builds — which is usually faster than any single channel alone.
Pay-per-use published rates with no commitment.
Locked-in rates on multi-year SLAs.
Marketplace and D2C single-parcel orders.
Case, layer and pallet picking for trade.
Every channel connected to one live pool.

Few towns wear their logistics logic as plainly as Cannock. Sitting where the M6, the M6 Toll and the A5 meet just north of Birmingham, it offers something the congested motorway box to its south cannot: fast, reliable access without the daily crawl through Spaghetti Junction. Traffic bound for the North West can peel onto the M6 Toll at T7 and skip the worst of the West Midlands entirely. From the WS11 and WS12 districts the DIRFT core is roughly forty-five minutes away down the M6.
That road position has made distribution and warehousing the town's defining trade. Kingswood Lakeside, developed on former colliery land, is now one of Staffordshire's premier logistics parks, while Tom Hill and Hawks Green add further industrial capacity. The scale of shed space here reflects genuine demand - Cannock functions as a release valve for occupiers priced out of, or clogged up in, the Birmingham conurbation, yet it keeps them within easy reach of the same customer base.
Look at Cannock's neighbours and the appeal sharpens further. Walsall and Wolverhampton sit just south on the M6; Lichfield and Tamworth are a short eastward run via the A5 and A34. Cannock Chase, the wooded upland on the town's doorstep, is a reminder that this remains Staffordshire rather than Black Country sprawl. For a distributor weighing a Midlands base, the town offers motorway convergence, modern estates and land availability in a single, well-connected package.
For multi-channel sellers near Cannock, the hard part is not connecting the channels — it is deciding who gets the stock. One located pool here with live allocation means a retailer's forty cases and a marketplace surge cannot both be promised the same pallet.

Local answers for Cannock, plus the questions every multi-channel fulfilment client asks.
Because three major routes converge here: the M6 at Junctions 11-12, the M6 Toll at T7 and the A5. That lets operators reach the North West and the South without funnelling through central Birmingham, which is why the town has attracted so much modern warehouse development.
Kingswood Lakeside was built on reclaimed colliery land into a large, purpose-designed logistics park with big-shed units and strong HGV access. Alongside Tom Hill and Hawks Green, it gives Cannock a depth of modern distribution space that's hard to match locally.
Yes - that's a key advantage. Joining the M6 Toll at T7 lets northbound and southbound freight bypass the notorious M6 stretch through Spaghetti Junction, making journey times far more predictable, especially at peak hours.
Walsall and Wolverhampton are minutes down the M6, while Lichfield and Tamworth sit a short run east via the A5 and A34. The whole northern edge of the West Midlands conurbation is comfortably within a rapid delivery radius.
Allow around forty-five minutes down the M6 to the Rugby and DIRFT area. That keeps Cannock connected to the Golden Triangle's rail-freight core while giving you land and shed availability the more central hubs often lack.
Yes — that is the point of this service. Single parcels, cases and full pallets all pick from the same located stock, with availability computed live so a trade order and a consumer order cannot claim the same unit.
Yes. Marketplace cut-offs and tracking upload, branded packing for your own D2C orders, retailer labelling and ASN for trade — each route keeps its own obligations while drawing on one inventory.
eCommerce fulfilment is several online channels all shipping parcels. This is for when the order shapes genuinely differ — parcels, cases and pallets — where allocation, not integration, is the hard part.
Parcel picks from £1.00 plus £0.35 processing, pallets from £12.50 built and wrapped, storage from £4.50 per pallet per week, integration £150 per week covering every channel.
Yes — everything is line-itemed, so a Cannock seller can see exactly what a marketplace order costs versus a retail pallet, which is usually the number that drives the commercial decision.
