How Capacity sped up returns processing by 3x with Two Boxes
About Capacity
Capacity has been a trusted 3PL partner for over 25 years, supporting recognizable brands like Rhode, r.e.m. beauty, and Rare Beauty. With multiple fulfillment centers across the US, they offer complete logistics services for every production step, from item storage and packaging to order fulfillment and returns management.
The Challenge
Capacity needed to upgrade their returns process as they expanded into new industries
While Capacity was known for their work with beauty clients, they wanted to expand into other verticals. In particular, the apparel industry stood out as a potential growth opportunity. But this new opportunity meant their team would start receiving far more returns. Clothing is one of the most returned ecommerce items, so they wanted to be prepared to take on the higher volume.
Dr. Jason Depietropaolo, Head of Partnerships, and Casey Pipero, Director of Value-Added Services, saw that their existing returns management process needed an upgrade for the increase in quantity. "We were doing double and triple processing," Casey says. "We needed the integrations and visibility to handle the volume."
The lack of integrations with their clients' returns software, in particular, was a significant challenge. Capacity wanted a solution that would easily integrate with different RMA providers so they could support their customers with clear data.
As Jason and Casey began the expansion process, they looked for a best-in-class returns processing software that could grow alongside them. Their hunt for the right platform led their team to Two Boxes.
The Solution
Simplifying every return step for faster fulfillment
As soon as Capacity onboarded Two Boxes, they saw an immediate improvement in their returns.
"Two Boxes brought a lot of different features live very quickly," Jason says. "The whole process was just simple and straightforward."
Two Boxes' user-friendly interface makes it easy to train warehouse staff. Digitized SOPs guide the associates through each step in the new returns process with precise checklists for each client. The automated solution significantly reduces errors while processing returned items faster, helping their team stay ahead of rising shipment volumes.
Capacity also gets more data about the returns, such as the quantity and timing of each shipment. Casey and Jason can spot patterns and trends across every returned item, allowing them to better plan for their needs.
"Knowing how many returns are supposed to be coming in helps with labor planning, especially when we see an uptick during holiday shopping," Casey says. "It gives us more information and more knowledge as we go through the process."
Certified integrations between Two Boxes and RMA providers keep returns data accurate and accessible. Now Casey and Jason can see all their returned orders in one centralized dashboard — no extra steps needed.
The Results
Capacity tripled their apparel customers thanks to a more efficient returns process
With Two Boxes, Capacity has quickly scaled up their returns processing thanks to fewer manual steps. Up-to-date data ensures they stay ahead of higher volumes of returned items and keeps clients informed about their reverse fulfillment.
Partnering with Two Boxes has driven impressive results:
3x faster returns processing
3x growth in apparel customers
By leveraging Two Boxes, Capacity has transformed returns into a key benefit, boosting their reputation as a reliable 3PL for apparel brands of all sizes.
