Reverse Logistics Services Integrated With Your Forward Supply Chain

At Loginam, our B2B reverse logistics services run inside the same operation that handles your warehousing and distribution, so recovery work starts as soon as a batch is received. That can eliminate an extra transfer between warehousing and recovery operations, with one team accountable for handling units.

Plus, capacity flexes to your service level agreements (SLAs) and volumes without locking you into long-term commitments.

Whether restocking, refurbishing, or recycling, we help you recapture value through ISO-driven operations from our IMMEX-compliant facility in Tijuana, Mexico.

Your Reverse Logistics Provider That Turns Returns Into Recovered Value

Loginam delivers reverse logistics services designed for the realities of B2B returns: inconsistent condition, missing accessories, packaging issues, and time pressure, without excess cost or write-offs.

Returns Management

Our returns management starts with structured RMA intake and continues through triage, condition grading, and recovery reporting so you can reduce uncertainty and limit margin leakage.

Refurbishment & Rework

When returns are recoverable, we move fast to convert them into resale-ready inventory.

Through our maquiladora operations, we perform cosmetic repair, functional rework, component replacement, QA and testing cycles, plus reboxing and labeling to move products back into the distribution pipeline.

Data-Wipe Options For Electronics

For consumer electronics and connected devices, we support data-wipe options as part of the disposition process to reduce risk while improving recovery outcomes.

Recycling

When products cannot be recovered, our controlled recycling options provide you with the appropriate documentation and reporting to close the loop responsibly.

Inside Our B2B Returns Management & Reverse Logistics Solutions

Our returns management and reverse logistics work is built for B2B return volume, where an inbound batch arrives in inconsistent condition and has to be triaged, graded, and routed before any of it can earn again.

Returns & Restocking

The first question at intake is what can go back into inventory as-is:

  • Condition separation before anything enters storage.
  • Put-away straight into your active inventory, in the same 3PL warehousing records as your forward stock.
  • Recovery reporting, so you can see what came back sellable against what went to rework.

Reverse Logistics With Refurbishment

Because rework runs at nearshore operating costs, recovery stays viable further down the condition scale:

  • Stock that would be written off onshore can pay its way back into your channel.
  • A, B and C grading, so recovered inventory arrives at a condition your buyers recognize.
  • Disposition rules you set in advance, so the recover-or-recycle threshold stays yours.

Inventory Management

Inventory management in Mexico has to answer to customs as well as to you. At Loginam, every unit carries a record that stands up to both:

  • Scanned into our warehouse management system (WMS) at intake, then tracked by lot and serial number.
  • Annex 24 control, the auditable inventory system IMMEX (Mexico’s maquiladora and export services program) requires for temporary imports.
  • Pedimento reconciliation against the original entry, so nothing sits open in an audit.

What Makes The Tijuana–San Diego Region A Smart Choice For Reverse Logistics?

Returns recover value faster when the facility handling them is close, reachable, and on the right side of a working border crossing.

Southern California, One Crossing Away

Returns consolidate at your West Coast points and cross in one move, so nothing sits idle between legs. The Cali-Baja corridor links our Tijuana operation directly to San Diego and the California distribution network running north from there.

Shared Time Zones

Cross-border teams collaborate in real time on exceptions and disposition decisions, in English, rather than queuing them for the next business day.

Otay Mesa Freight Access

Commercial freight moves through the Otay Mesa gateway minutes from our facility, with customs documentation prepared before a truck reaches the crossing. Dedicated FTL/LTL and parcel lanes, maquiladora labor efficiency, and IMMEX-ready execution keep you compliant with US-MX requirements without slowing the operation.

Did You Know?

2026 cross-border logistics by the numbers:

  • $89.2B freight moved between the U.S. and Mexico in a single month.
  • $5.38B in truck freight moved through Otay Mesa during June alone, making it one of the busiest U.S.–Mexico truck gateways.
  • Mexico accounted for 16.8% of total U.S. goods trade.

FAQs

Reverse logistics is the process of moving goods from the customer back through the supply chain. In a B2B setting, it covers bulk and multi-SKU commercial returns, pallet and case-level shipments, repairs, refurbishment, and recycling, helping recover value, maintain compliance, and protect customer relationships.

Reverse logistics services are the hands-on workflows that manage B2B returns at scale, including RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization) receiving with intake checks and condition scoring, cosmetic repair, functional rework, and QA/testing. The goal is to process returned inventory fast to shorten turnaround time and recover items for resale whenever possible.

Asset recovery in a 3PL setting follows a structured flow: a return is initiated, and items are received and verified. Next, they are inspected and graded based on condition before being routed to the best disposition path, such as restock, refurbishment, or recycling, based on pre-agreed rules for value recovery.

Yes. Loginam offers end-to-end 3PL services, including warehousing and inventory control, so returns are received and stored while staying tied to inventory visibility. Through ERP/EDI connections to our WMS/TMS, reverse workflows remain aligned with real-time inventory data and reconciliation.

Reverse logistics is a core supply chain process that moves goods upstream, from the buyer back to the seller. It can involve returns management, refurbishment, recycling, etc.

Returns management is part of the wider reverse flow and focuses on receiving, inspecting, processing, and routing returned items.

The primary inventory management strategies to control and optimize stock include:

  • Just-In-Time (JIT): Receiving goods only as they are needed in the production process to minimize storage costs and waste.
  • Vendor-Managed Inventory (VMI): Allowing the supplier to monitor stock levels and automatically handle replenishment decisions.
  • Drop-Shipping: Eliminating inventory holding completely by having manufacturers ship orders directly to the final consumer.
  • Materials Requirements Planning (MRP): Utilizing a sales forecast to schedule precise inventory deliveries based on production needs.

The core inventory management lifecycle has five core stages:

  1. Purchasing & Receiving: Ordering stock and logging arrivals into the warehouse.
  2. Storing: Organizing and housing inventory safely in designated locations.
  3. Tracking & Monitoring: Utilizing barcodes or RFID to track stock movements.
  4. Order Fulfillment: Picking, packing, and shipping items to customers.
  5. Reordering & Reporting: Analyzing data to replenish stock.

Reverse logistics encompasses all activities required to manage a product after its initial point of sale, including:

  • Processing customer returns.
  • Undertaking product rework, refurbishment, or repair.
  • Remarketing sellable units.
  • Recycling and managing sustainable disposal.

In contrast to forward logistics, which operates on standard quantities and predictable schedules, reverse logistics is highly variable because a business cannot really control when, how many, or in what condition products will come back, creating inherently fragmented inbound flows, with each item or batch requiring inspection before routing to the most appropriate next step.

Modern supply chains face five major challenges when managing reverse flows:

  1. Margin Erosion: High transportation, handling, and labor costs can quickly reduce the value recovered from returned goods.
  2. Poor Visibility: Limited tracking of inbound items can create inventory blind spots and make returns harder to manage across the network.
  3. Value Depreciation: Slow inspection and processing delay resale, refurbishment, or redistribution, reducing recoverable value over time.
  4. Return Fraud & Policy Abuse: Fraudulent returns, wardrobing, and other forms of abuse increase losses and add complexity to return decisions.
  5. Sustainability & Regulatory Compliance: Businesses must navigate regulations regarding e-waste, recycling, disposal, and other environmental requirements.
