How to Inspect Overstock Products Before Buying

By Editorial Team6 min read

A simple inspection routine for bulk stock — what to open, what to count and what to photograph.

Open a random sample

Choose cartons yourself from different pallets instead of letting the seller pick. Check that what is inside matches the description and the labels on the box.

Count and record

Count cartons and units per carton, take photos, and write the totals on the delivery note before signing.
