When it comes to wiping rags, price isn’t the only factor that matters—weight does too! Many customers think they’re getting a great deal from their supplier, but there’s a catch: they might be paying for the packaging instead of just the product.
Here’s the breakdown: If a supplier sells you a box labeled as 8 lbs, ask if that’s net weight (just the rags) or gross weight (rags plus packaging). Better yet, request a sample and weigh it yourself!
Smart buyers compare net weight to net weight, because at the end of the day, you’re paying for the rags, not the box. Weigh what you’ve received—if that “8 lbs” deal turns out to be 6 lbs of rags and 2 lbs of packaging, you’re not getting the value you expect. It makes a big difference!
Get what you paid for—make sure you’re buying product, not packaging.
