Rework
Rework, also called value-added services, is the hands-on work that happens after goods arrive but before they ship, correcting, relabeling, repackaging, or reconfiguring product so it meets retailer, regulatory, or customer requirements. A2B Link network handles rework inside our warehouse network, so a compliance issue never has to mean sending inventory back overseas.

Our Rework Capabilities
Pallet Rebuilding & Restacking
We rebuild leaning, shifted, or collapsed pallets into stable, square unit loads, restacking cartons, correcting overhang, and re-securing freight so it clears receiver and carrier inspection.
Learn MoreLoad Palletizing
Loose or floor-loaded freight built into carrier-ready pallets to your height, weight, and stacking pattern, with slip-sheets and tier sheets added wherever the load needs them.
Learn MorePallet Breakdown & Depalletizing
Palletized freight broken down and reconfigured as floor-loaded, loose, or mixed, ideal for cube optimization, special handling, or a change in outbound equipment.
Learn MoreWrapping & Load Securing
Fresh stretch-wrap applied to lock down loads, damaged wrap replaced, and corner boards or top sheets added to protect product and keep pallets intact in transit.
Learn MorePallet Splitting & Reconfiguration
One tall or overweight pallet divided into smaller, safer unit loads, or volume rebalanced across pallets to hit weight limits and simplify handling.
Learn MoreLabeling & Relabeling
Missing or damaged labels replaced and new ones applied to receiver and retailer specs (PO, store, stop, route), cutting the risk of refusals and chargebacks.
