A Nationwide Warehousing and Shipping Solution
Many manufacturers rely on us to provide their dealers and retail customers with a prompt and cost effective warehouse and delivery service. Our strategic location allows us to affordably ship packages overnight to anywhere in the U.S. by using a combination of reliable carriers. Degelman has negotiated substantially reduced rates on LTL and full load rates with several national carriers. Discounts are passed along to the manufacturer or shipment recipient. Many locations can be reached by ground transport within one day. Our reduced delivery rates often compensate for any applicable warehousing charges. In addition, many manufacturers make use of Degelman as a centralized "Warranty return depot" for their U.S. dealers.

Several manufacturers store inventory at their discretion in our Minot warehouse. Degelman will immediately ship this product using the most cost and time effective method possible. Several manufacturers rely on Degelman to break down bulk goods into individual unit or multi unit packages. At predetermined intervals the manufacturer receives a summary of shipments (both inbound and outbound).

Hours of Operation and Shipment Expectations:
One of our greatest strengths is our accessibility and our people's commitment to getting things done right and on time. We start our commitment to personalized service by having a real, live receptionist answer our telephones. Our regular business hours are Monday to Friday, 7:30AM to 5:00 PM. If you have a special request or concern our corporate culture demands that we respond to you, same day. Our staff do not "hide behind their voice mail".

Of course you can rely on us to ship all orders the same day when requested during normal business hours. We conveniently ship anywhere in the U.S. by common carrier, (ground or air) or by our own fleet of heavy transport equipment. We know that many of our manufacturing and dealer partners expect more than just "regular business hours" from their equipment. They've come to expect more than that from our warehouse and shipping services as well. We are available with "emergency shipment service" after hours, on weekends and during major holidays. This is something that we're proud of and, for our valued business partners, we offer this service at no extra charge.

Transcape Shipping System
We use an advanced shipping system called "Transcape". This is a sophisticated system that combines computer hardware, software and on-line connectivity to instantly search most available options for shipping products to dealers and farming customers. Shipping companies have a myriad of abilities, options and promotions that change on a regular basis. Our Transcape system will summarize all available options and shipment information including: delivery date and time, price and service guarantee. By using this system our people can help ensure prompt delivery as well as save your customers a substantial portion of shipment costs and often get them their parts quicker than more expensive methods.

In addition to finding the most appropriate and cost effective rate, Transcape also allows us to perform periodic performance audits of our carriers. Our people can develop a confidence in (or lack thereof) for a specific carrier and their ability to deliver on time.

We also use an automated e-mail shipment notification system that will notify the recipient of the pending delivery and communicate tracking #'s and actual shipping charges. Our delivery assignments are polled every 15 minutes to provide extremely current and prompt communication of pending deliveries

Inventory Control & Audits
Degelman runs a "perpetual" inventory audit. We perform a physical audit on a representative portion of your inventory every 4 weeks. A complete inventory is performed annually (at a date chosen by you). These services are performed at no extra charge.

Our company was established in Minot in 1975 and has earned the confidence of our manufacturing partners. We are proud of our reputation and are committed to consistent and complete customer satisfaction.
