Abstract :
Reverse logistics has the following disadvantages, scattered, uncertainty and small volume. It is difficult for E-commerce to provide a good reverse logistics services to reduce their and buyers transportation expenses. Based on the analysis of current reverse logistics practices, it presents an effective strategy of non-defective reverse logistics. By using this strategy sellers can choose another consumer´s delivery address as consumer´s return address to shorten the distance of non-defective reverse transportation. It depends on the integrity checking service provided by third-party logistics. Computational tests validate the strategy. This research provides fundamental analysis for efficient strategy of non-defective reverse logistics.
