Liquidations and closeouts can come from a variety of sources. Some common examples are manufacturers with overstocks, retail stores closing, and companies changing product packaging. Marinecargorecovery.com specializes in liquidations and closeouts that have not been on the store shelf. We sell inventories that are in original cases with intact packaging unless noted otherwise. These inventories range from a few pallets to multiple truckloads. A recent acquisition of 17 truckloads of cased goods furniture was shipped cross-country to a large discount chain in New England. Marinecargorecovery.com sourced the product, inspected goods, negotiated purchase price and assisted in the logistics and transportation of goods. Whether you are looking for discounted pricing on raw materials for manufacturing or finished product for your store shelves, give us the opportunity to assist you.

F.O. B.: FOB stands for "Free On Board". Documents stating "FOB" means that the seller pays for transportation of the goods to the port of shipment, plus loading costs.

The passing of risks occurs when the goods pass the ship's rail at the port of shipment. An exporter might state F.O.B. Port of Los Angeles.
