Most Rejected Stock Is Recoverable

Inspect First, Quote Second

Send a sample or a single pallet. We inspect it, tell you what proportion is genuinely recoverable and what the correction costs per unit, before you move the rest.

Local Coverage

Rework & Relabelling in Lichfield — Staffordshire Local Knowledge

For a cathedral city, Lichfield carries a surprisingly heavy logistics footprint, and the reason is simple: Fradley Park sits on its doorstep. That park has become one of the fastest-growing distribution locations in the Midlands, strung along the A38 with quick reach to the A5 and the M6 Toll at T5. Sitting in Staffordshire's WS13 and WS14 postcodes, Lichfield is roughly 45 minutes from the DIRFT and Rugby core - further out than the triangle's heart, but firmly plugged into the same motorway grid.

The A38 is Lichfield's backbone, running north towards Burton and south into Birmingham, while the M6 Toll at T5 and the M42 at Junction 9 give operators a way to skirt the congested central motorway box. That combination is exactly what has drawn big-shed distribution to Fradley Park, alongside Britannia Enterprise Park and the older Trent Valley estate. Together they offer a spread of modern logistics units and light-industrial space within a couple of minutes of a trunk road.

Lichfield's business base is weighted towards distribution, logistics and light manufacturing, and its neighbours reinforce that character. Tamworth's Relay Park lies just east across the M42, Cannock's warehousing cluster sits west along the A5 and M6 Toll, and Burton upon Trent - Britain's brewing capital - is a short run north on the A38. Goods routed through Lichfield can therefore tap into a dense Staffordshire logistics network without ever leaving the A38 corridor for long.

Stock gets written off around Lichfield because nobody had the people to go through it in time. That is a scheduling problem being priced as a loss, and relabelling from £0.75 a unit against full landed cost is rarely a close call.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Local answers for Lichfield, plus the questions every rework & relabelling client asks.

Why is Lichfield such a strong logistics location?

Fradley Park, on the A38 just outside the city, is one of the Midlands' fastest-growing distribution parks. Add the M6 Toll at T5 and the M42 at Junction 9 and Lichfield gives operators big-shed capacity with a clean run around the central motorway box.

How far is Lichfield from your Golden Triangle hub?

Lichfield sits roughly 45 minutes from the DIRFT/Rugby core in the WS13 and WS14 postcodes. It is on the outer edge of the triangle, but the A38 and M6 Toll keep the trunk run into the hub straightforward.

Which Lichfield estates can you store goods on?

We work across Fradley Park for modern distribution units, Britannia Enterprise Park, and the established Trent Valley estate. That range lets us place light-industrial and larger logistics stock close to the A38 as needed.

Can you connect Lichfield stock with Tamworth and Cannock?

Yes. Tamworth's Relay Park is just east over the M42 and Cannock's warehousing cluster sits west along the A5 and M6 Toll. We route between them regularly, so Lichfield works well as a Staffordshire staging point.

Does the M6 Toll actually help deliveries from Lichfield?

It does. Joining at T5 lets vehicles bypass the busiest stretch of the M6 through the conurbation, which makes southbound and Birmingham-bound runs from Lichfield more predictable, especially at peak times.

Can you rework stock rejected from a Lichfield supplier or retailer?

Yes — send one pallet or a sample first. We inspect it free, tell you what proportion is genuinely recoverable and what the correction costs per unit, and only then do you move the rest across.

What sort of problems can you fix?

Wrong or missing barcodes, retailer-spec label formats, missing language, origin or safety labelling on imports, incorrect date and batch codes, crushed outer cartons, and failed units that need removing from otherwise good batches.

What if it is not worth reworking?

We will say so. The free sample inspection exists precisely so Lichfield clients do not ship pallets across the country to find out a batch is unsalvageable.

What does it cost?

Relabelling from £0.75 per unit, repack and physical rework from £0.45, quarantine storage from £4.50 per pallet per week. Full runs quoted per job once we have seen the stock.

How fast can a rejected load be turned round?

Usually inside the same week for standard relabelling — which matters, because the line is typically out of stock the whole time it is unresolved.
