Hello Josh.
I just wanted to let you know that we have been using some recycled boxes as the Post Office has been returning them to us. We have those bundled and are ready for the pick up. I am not certain if that would be helpful in the process for you all or if that would actually be more of a problem and you would rather use new boxes each time. Also, I wanted to see what kind of a pricing guarantee comes with your pricing. I wouldn't want this to be a one-time pricing and then different pricing would be in place later on. Let me know.
Thank you,
Michael B

OK. I quoted 2-3 weeks Leadtime, planning on at some lead time to get boxes.

Let me contact the box supplier to see how long it would take to get the first order of boxes in.  I will find out if we leaned on them, how quick we could get something.

As long as you were ok with an LTL portion to start out, my belief is we could get you something within 2 weeks to start, with balance to follow.  Once we know the quantities, we can sort everything out.

Have a good weekend!  Will talk to you next week.

Hello Josh.

I am no quite ready to quite place the order. I can let you know better Monday. However the 3 may not quite work at least this time. We would likely run our current supply pretty close to out in that time frame. I am leaving for the day now but will look at things and get back with you on Monday. Have a good weekend.

Thank you,
Michael B

No worries, I know the feeling.  Great news!  Hopefully we can get this order and get a chance to once again become your tube supplier.

These are delivered prices.  No additional freight.  

The liftgate needs to be confirmed.  I'm not sure what the various freight companies have available with liftgate.  Also depends on number of pallets ordered-what fits in a smaller trailer with liftgate, etc.  We would at least match the service model you have today with what's being quoted.

If we received order today, would be looking at 10-21 delivery at 3 weeks.  We'd need to get the box order going.

So I can try to stay ahead on the freight, what would your order quantities be this time around?  I have a message into Saginaw's Plant Manager.  If I knew what the order would be, he can be more specific with his request for freight info.

Hello Josh.

Sorry for the delay. Have just been swamped with the start of the new season. The numbers do look pretty good this time. I was wondering if the freight costs are included in the pricing. If not, I will need to know what that is to get a true comparison to what we currently pay. Also, is the liftgate a for sure thing or just a request that is being made. Let me know if there is a separate charge to have that added and what that is broken out. Almost ready to order so let me know ASAP. 

Thank you,
Michael B

Hi Mike,

Hope you had a good weekend.

I was authorized to provide the attached prices.

After you have a chance to review, if you can let me know your thoughts, that would be great.  Hopefully the pricing is in line with where you would need it for Caraustar to supply your November order.

Thanks again for your consideration of Saginaw for this business.

Have a great week!
