Prior to Inbounding (Note)

Before inbounding product to Badger's warehouse:

  1. All Products / SKUs must be set up in the Dashboard (see Products section); all SKUs must be added to a Receipt Order (RO).
  2. Ensure your products and shipment are prepped for inbounding (see Products and Inbound sections).

Schedule an Inbound Shipment

To "schedule" an inbound shipment, Create a Receipt Order (RO) in your Dashboard and then submit the 'Inbound ASN' Operational Form via the Help Center; once all Product-SKUs have been added to the RO and the Inbound ASN Form submitted, you may proceed inbounding product to the warehouse. 

No confirmation is provided by Badger once a Receipt Order is created (or Inbound ASN Form submitted); as long as all RO details are completely filled out, you may proceed inbounding the corresponding products.

Be sure to have the 1) RO created in the WMS and 2) Inbound ASN Form submitted at least 2 business days prior to Ground and Standard Freight deliveries, or at least 4 business days prior to Floor Loaded Freight deliveries.

Example 1: If 3 packages (or pallets) are expected to arrive any time Wednesday, create the RO and submit the ASN Form by the preceding Monday (12:00pm CT) at the latest.

Example 2: If a floor loaded container is expected to arrive any time Friday, create the RO and submit the ASN Form by the preceding Monday (12:00pm CT) at the latest.

Create one RO per shipment delivery or transfer (i.e. for two separate deliveries arriving on the same day, enter two ROs).

Inbound Shipping Methods

Inbound product to Badger's warehouse via one of the following methods:

  • Small Parcel / Ground: boxes delivered via van or box truck (i.e. USPS, FedEx, UPS).  If your shipment is greater than 250 lbs., it is recommended to ship product on a pallet.  Badger does not offer inbound ground shipping labels.

    Include your Receipt Order Number on the shipping labels (reference field) and/or on separate box labels.
  • Standard Freight (Pallets): product shipped in boxes on pallets via freight truck / trailer.  If your shipment is greater than 250 lbs., it is recommended to ship product on a pallet.

    Clearly display your Receipt Order Number on the outside of all pallets and include on the Bill of Lading (reference field).

    If you'd like Badger to set up your inbound domestic freight shipment, request to schedule pickup under Operations in the Help Center.
  • Floor Loaded Freight: product shipped in boxes, loaded on the floor of a trailer or container (boxes not contained on pallets - requiring Badger offload by hand).
  • Client Drop Off: clients may personally drop boxes off at the warehouse (Monday - Friday, 8:30am - 4:00pm CT).  Check in at the west office and then drop product off near overhead door 1 (west side).  A Receipt Order is still required prior to delivery; note "Client Drop-off" in the RO Notes field and/or on ASN Form.
  • Badger Product Transfer: Badger offers pallet transfers from the following manufacturers, located in Harvard, IL:
    • PetDine / ADM (2 Dogs Way)
    • Elite Health Partners (495 Commanche Circle)

Units must be packaged in boxes, consolidated onto pallets for transport.

To request a Product Transfer, create a Receipt Order and submit the 'Inbound ASN' Operational Form via the Help Center.  Badger will coordinate pick-up directly with the manufacturer; a bill of lading is not required / generated.

Pallets are typically transferred to Badger's warehouse within 2 business days.  Once a shipment is unloaded, regular receiving lead time applies (additional time for product receipt & put-away).

Shipping Address
