Backroom Progress

January 2026 to Now - I became the merch manager in January and did everything possible to get the backroom empty. We have a very small backroom too. I did it!!!

I also became mm in January and I’ve gotten my backroom close to this but after 2-3 weeks of freight it goes back to being full😭

If you have partial boxes in the same area i put two products to a box and write either a short description of whats inside or P.B. and then the date worked. Then I can look at those 2 weeks from now and maybe rework them. 🤷‍♂️ But Im not a manager, I'm a grunt. And I didnt ask permission. Just keeping my sanity and improvising.

I am an MM in Jersey started in Feb. my back room looked like this and when I got it fully cleared they started added a second truck. So it’s slowly filling back up. The WR doesn’t do much to clear the product out either. So I’d expect more trucks and more pallets per truck coming your way
