Suppliers are responsible for determining quantities of merchandise
delivered to the Iowa ABD warehouse for storage and must maintain
no more than a 10-week inventory supply. For ease of warehouse operations,
Iowa ABD requests that suppliers deliver merchandise in multiples
of pallet or layer quantities when possible.
Iowa ABD requests that suppliers notify the Division of quantities,
by code, being ordered for delivery to the Iowa ABD warehouse at least
48 hours in advance of shipment. Iowa ABD will then provide the supplier
with an unloading reference number, or release number. Suppliers will
furnish the carrier with the release number.
Iowa ABD requires that carriers contact the Iowa ABD Inventory Manager
to obtain an unloading appointment time. The carrier should indicate
the supplier and the Iowa ABD unloading reference number when scheduling
the appointment. Carriers should call at least one week in advance
to arrange the unloading time as unloading times are frequently booked
seven to ten working days in advance. Trucks arriving without appointments
and reference numbers will not be unloaded. |
