If your warehouse is filled with products that aren’t moving, you may be searching for an excess inventory buyer near you who can purchase the merchandise in bulk.
Maybe you have a few pallets of overstock. Maybe a retailer canceled a purchase order. Perhaps you’re discontinuing a product line, changing packaging, closing a warehouse, or simply need to free up space.
Whatever the reason, Big Willy’s Wholesale buys excess, surplus, overstock, discontinued, closeout, and slow-moving inventory from businesses throughout the United States.
Our buying operation is based in Vernon, California, in the Los Angeles area, and we evaluate inventory opportunities nationwide.

What Is an Excess Inventory Buyer?
An excess inventory buyer purchases merchandise that another company no longer needs through its normal sales channels.
The merchandise doesn’t necessarily have anything wrong with it.
Companies end up with excess inventory for many reasons:
- They ordered too much
- Customer demand changed
- A retailer canceled an order
- A product was discontinued
- Packaging was redesigned
- A product line was eliminated
- Seasonal merchandise didn’t sell
- A warehouse is closing
- A company is relocating
- A new model replaced the old version
- An Amazon seller stopped selling a product
Instead of continuing to store the merchandise, businesses can offer the inventory to wholesale buyers.
How Do I Find a Buyer for Excess Inventory Near Me?
When searching for an inventory buyer, don’t limit yourself to companies located a few miles from your warehouse.
For larger inventory opportunities, the right buyer may be located in another city or state.
A wholesale buyer can potentially coordinate freight from your warehouse, 3PL, distribution center, or manufacturing facility.
Big Willy’s Wholesale is located in the Los Angeles area, but we evaluate inventory throughout the United States.
That means inventory can potentially be located in:
- California
- Nevada
- Arizona
- Texas
- Florida
- New York
- New Jersey
- Illinois
- Georgia
- Pennsylvania
- Ohio
- Washington
- And other U.S. markets
For the right opportunity, location doesn’t necessarily prevent us from reviewing the inventory.
Excess Inventory Buyers in Los Angeles
If your merchandise is located in Los Angeles, Vernon, Commerce, City of Industry, Carson, Long Beach, or elsewhere in Southern California, we’re especially interested in reviewing the opportunity.
Southern California has an enormous concentration of:
- Importers
- Manufacturers
- Distributors
- Warehouses
- 3PLs
- E-commerce companies
- Consumer brands
These businesses regularly accumulate inventory that needs another sales channel.
Our Vernon location allows us to evaluate local opportunities while still purchasing inventory nationwide.

How Much Inventory Do You Need to Have?
Big Willy’s Wholesale is primarily a bulk inventory buyer.
We’re most interested in opportunities involving:
- Multiple cases
- Several pallets
- Hundreds or thousands of units
- Large single-SKU quantities
- Full truckloads
- Multiple truckloads
- Multi-SKU inventories
- Complete product lines
- Warehouse cleanouts
For example, if you have 10,000 units of one discontinued product, we’d like to review it.
If you have 100 different SKUs you need to clear, send us the entire spreadsheet.
Can You Sell an Entire Inventory at Once?
Potentially.
If your objective is to clear a large amount of merchandise, tell us that you’re looking for a take-all offer.
Our buying team can review the complete inventory rather than requiring you to sell each product separately.
This can be particularly useful for:
- Warehouse cleanouts
- Product-line exits
- Business closures
- Brand shutdowns
- Distributor closeouts
- Large canceled orders
- E-commerce inventory liquidations
Selling a larger inventory position through fewer transactions can save significant time.
What Information Does an Inventory Buyer Need?
The more information you provide, the easier it is for a buyer to evaluate your merchandise.
Whenever possible, provide:
- Brand
- Product description
- SKU
- UPC
- Quantity
- Case pack
- Number of cases
- Number of pallets
- Product condition
- Product photos
- Warehouse location
- MSRP
- Wholesale price, if available
- Asking price, if available
- Resale restrictions
For large inventories, send an Excel spreadsheet.
If the merchandise has expiration dates, best-by dates, or other dating requirements, include those as well.
Can My Inventory Be Stored at a 3PL?
Yes.
You don’t need to transfer merchandise to another warehouse before submitting it.
Inventory can be located at:
- Your warehouse
- A 3PL
- Distribution center
- Fulfillment warehouse
- Manufacturing facility
- Import warehouse
Tell us where the merchandise is located.
If we reach an agreement, pickup and logistics can be coordinated based on the transaction.
Why Sell Excess Inventory Instead of Continuing to Store It?
There isn’t one answer for every business.
Sometimes holding inventory makes sense.
However, excess merchandise has costs that should be considered.
Inventory can tie up:
Cash.
Warehouse space.
Labor.
Storage costs.
Management time.
If the merchandise isn’t moving, ask yourself how realistically it will sell over the next six or twelve months.
A wholesale offer gives you another option to compare.
