Business-to-business recovery
Put a past-due Chesapeake supply or service account on a clear recovery path.
An unpaid warehouse invoice, materials shipment, or equipment service call can tie up cash that a Chesapeake business needs for its next order. David Michael Commercial helps creditors review the supporting records and pursue overdue commercial balances with professional outreach and consistent reporting.
DMC serves Chesapeake and nearby South Hampton Roads communities, including Norfolk, Portsmouth, Virginia Beach, and Suffolk. Our nationwide recovery capability also supports accounts involving a local receiving facility and a customer headquartered elsewhere.
These are examples of records that can help establish a commercial balance. Share what you have; DMC will review the account before recommending a recovery path.
Warehousing and supply-chain service invoices
Provide the storage or handling agreement, receiving and release records, activity reports, and itemized invoices. Separate recurring fees from additional services and reconcile inventory adjustments or credits. Identify the business that ordered the work when the cargo owner, warehouse customer, and consignee differ.
Manufacturing and industrial equipment balances
Gather purchase orders, approved specifications, shipment confirmations, installation records, and service authorizations. Include acceptance correspondence and details of returns, warranty issues, or customer deductions. Link each remaining charge to the order or repair that generated it.
