Reverse Logistics Are Too Costly — Loop’s New Option Saves on Every Return

Reverse logistics is draining your margins. Learn how Loop’s new integration with LiquiDonate helps retailers cut return costs, eliminate waste, and unlock tax savings on unsellable inventory.

For retailers using Loop, returns are streamlined—but unsellable inventory is still a costly problem. Between return shipping, storage, and product disposal, the backend of your returns workflow may be draining your margins more than you think.

That’s where LiquiDonate’s new integration with Loop comes in.

Reverse Logistics Is a Blind Spot—And a Cost Center

For many retailers, reverse logistics isn’t just expensive—it’s a blind spot. Items that can’t be resold often sit idle, eating into margins with every passing day. The LiquiDonate integration for Loop Returns brings visibility and actionability to this stage of the return process, helping your team make smarter decisions without adding complexity. It’s not just a sustainability win—it’s an operational unlock.

Cut Costs on Returns You Can’t Resell

Now available inside Loop’s Return Management System, LiquiDonate offers a new disposition option: donation.

Instead of paying to store or destroy unsellable items, you can automatically route them to vetted nonprofits through LiquiDonate—reducing shipping costs, avoiding warehousing fees, and unlocking tax savings in the process.

Why It Matters:

  • Reduce reverse logistics costs by up to 60%

  • Free up warehouse space with automatic nonprofit matching

  • Claim potential tax deductions on donated goods

  • Align with ESG goals without adding operational lift

How LiquiDonate’s Loop Integration Impacts Your Bottom Line

Retailers using LiquiDonate’s Loop integration have reported measurable reductions in return-related costs. By automating donation for unsellable returns, brands are cutting operational waste and boosting financial efficiency—all without changing their existing workflows.

Key financial benefits include:

  • Reduced shipping costs by eliminating unnecessary return label usage

  • Zero storage fees for unsellable SKUs rerouted directly to nonprofits

  • Tax deduction opportunities for donated inventory, increasing net savings

  • Lower labor costs by removing manual processing for non-resellable items

  • Avoided landfill and destruction fees that can quietly drain budgets

For high-volume retailers, these improvements can add up to tens of thousands of dollars in annual savings—with minimal lift from internal teams.
