Hair Direct Warehouse is Even BIGGER!

Hey Everyone! A couple of posts ago I wrote about how busy our warehouse is. Our shipping department has really become overcrowded in the past few months due to our expansive growth. It's been a problem as we countinually add more hair replacement products to our online store. (Left: Empty shelves after the moving guys came in and cleared them for packing. This is the far-end of our current one-room warehouse.)

Our current warehouse has refused to let us countinue our growth (apparently, it's walls only allow so much shelving). So we decided to pack up and move to another location just down the road.

The movers were really great as they came right in and packed everything in their truck safely and securely. Those guys really now how to move! They were from Davcon Relocation Services. I hope I didn't bother them too much while I took pictures of them working.
















We had a bunch of boxes to move int to the new place and rob and Sharon, our warehouse movers and shakers worked their rumps off getting everything organized and in place.

The New Place...

This is the back room of our new warehouse. It'll be a great place for us to grow into! Right now it's a place for storage and holding stock that hasn't made it to the selves yet.

This is the main "picking and packing" area. It'll be where the products you order will originate and tidily be placed in cozy brown boxes with love! While it's about the same width as the old warehouse, as you can see it's much longer than the old place.



This will allow more room for the Rob and Sharon to "stage" packages ready to be placed on the shipping truck out of town.




At the end of the day Rob, Sharon, and Rich (from accounting) were still going strong trying to get ready for the next days shipping. They had a lot of boxes full of shampoos, conditioners, hairpiece tapes, and glues and adhesives to put on the shelves.

So, if you're expeirincing a bit of delay in the next couple of days, just remember that we are working hard to get your orders out and to you in a jiffy. I can't wait till I can post that this warehouse is now too small. I'm sure it won't be that far off!

New Store Design at Hair Direct

Currently our Hair Replacement Products store is down. Not for good. Just until the new design has been loaded. Our new design will have a lot of great features. Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS), Ingredients, Directions, more images of each product, user reviews, and eventually a hair tech Video Review of each product. You'll have WAY more info on each product than you will find ANYWHERE!

It's gonna be great!

The only thing is... we'll have to work like crazy imputing this data by hand all this week. The images will be updated when the site goes live, but the MSDS, ingredients, etc, we'll have to do by hand, and while the store is live. Hopefully it won't get to annoying to customers trying to use the site while we're imputing the data but I'm pretty confident we'll get through it unscathed.
