A continuous supply program, where new totes are delivered to the customer and old totes are simultaneously picked up and returned to the supplier.  This allows the totes to be re-used and often cuts oil cost by re-using packaging.  This program requires that the customer be using enough volume to warrant the additional shipping costs involved in the pick-up process.
