Fast & Efficient Reverse Logistics Services

EV Cargo’s reverse logistics services are powered by our extensive LTL road freight network. Unlike traditional forwarding methods that move goods from manufacturer to customer, reverse logistics handles the movement of goods in the opposite direction, including returns, repairs, recycling and disposal.

EV Cargo connects European freight

Extensive UK and european network

With 150 local collection and delivery depots, strategically linked to our central pallet sortation superhub in Burton, we are able to provide complete coverage across every UK postcode, ensuring the daily collection of pallets, offering unrivalled flexibility for your reverse logistics needs.

We also have LTL road freight hubs in Burton (UK) and Nettetal (Germany), ideally located at the heart of our UK and European networks to handle the efficient consolidation and final delivery of your reverse logistics shipments. By combining multiple smaller shipments into one larger shipment, we optimise transportation costs and minimise environmental impact.

Overnight collection and consolidation

At EV Cargo, we understand the importance of speed and efficiency in reverse logistics. That’s why we offer a seamless overnight collection and consolidation process. Once collected, your products are transported to our central sortation superhub. Here, our experienced teams efficiently consolidate your returns with other shipments headed for the same destination.

Consolidated shipments are then prepared for linehaul pickup, ensuring that your products are quickly moved towards their final destination.

Particularly important for Ecommerce businesses, not only does efficient returns processing translate to happier customers, it also ensures that businesses can get products back into their inventory faster, making them eligible for resale with minimal losses and disruptions to goods flow.

Logistics with real time visibility

Real-time visibility

With our reverse logistics services, our customers benefit from complete transparency.

Our industry leading ONE EV Cargo technology platform allows you to track your reverse logistics shipments every step of the way.

We utilise cutting-edge RF scanning technology at every crucial stage of the collection and consolidation process. This includes pickup at your location, arrival at local depots, sorting at the central superhub and linehaul pickup for final destination. Each scan is then recorded in real-time within the ONE EV Cargo platform.

The ONE EV Cargo platform features a user-friendly interface that allows you to easily track your shipments. Simply log in and view a comprehensive dashboard displaying the location and status of each return in real-time. This visibility empowers you to proactively anticipate potential disruptions and make informed decisions about your reverse logistics process.

Key benefits of EV Cargo reverse logistics

Return processes can often lead to returned items sitting idle in warehouses for extended periods. EV Cargo’s efficient collection and consolidation minimises this holding time. Faster processing of returns translates to less inventory occupying valuable warehouse space, freeing up resources and reducing storage costs.

With faster return processing, you can get products back into your inventory quicker. This allows you to restock items and meet customer demand faster, minimising the risk of stockouts and lost sales.

EV Cargo’s commitment to consolidation optimises transportation by maximising space utilisation on larger vehicles. This reduces the number of trips required and minimises fuel consumption, leading to a smaller environmental footprint for your reverse logistics operations.

Our ONE EV Cargo technology platform provides real-time tracking and complete visibility throughout the return process. This allows you to monitor the status of your shipments, identify potential issues proactively, and make informed decisions about your reverse logistics strategy.
