Wholesale & distribution collections · Austin, TX
A Austin wholesale & distribution business that won't pay is not the end of the account. We are a B2B collection agency working commercial accounts only, and we pursue wholesale & distribution debt across Central Texas with asset investigation, field contact, and legal enforcement through counsel when it is warranted.
Austin businesses across Central Texas run up unpaid wholesale & distribution invoices like everywhere else, and many creditors write them off rather than chase them across the state. We do not. We pursue wholesale & distribution accounts in Austin with the same work we bring to the major metros: research first, then contact, then enforcement through counsel. An unpaid invoice does not become uncollectible just because the customer stopped paying and stopped calling back.
A seller who discovers the buyer was insolvent when it took delivery on credit may demand the goods back — but the written demand is due within ten days of receipt (Tex. Bus. & Com. Code § 2.702), and the right is subordinate to a good-faith purchaser. After that window the claim is an ordinary one for the price. Distribution accounts also tend to be clean sworn-account material, because a systematic record of an open account is prima facie proof under Tex. R. Civ. P. 185 in a way a one-off sale is not.
A suit on a Austin account is filed in Travis County, with the Travis County District Clerk. Travis County runs 12 district courts hearing civil matters and 9 statutory county courts at law. Austin is not contained by one county. The city limits reach into Bastrop, Hays and Williamson Counties as well, so the county on a debtor's letterhead is not always the county a judgment against them should be abstracted in. Most commercial accounts resolve long before any of that, and we are a collection agency rather than a law firm — but knowing where the account would land is part of deciding whether pursuing it is worth your money.
Austin is roughly a 3-hour drive from Dallas. We still go — it just means a field visit is planned rather than spontaneous, and we tell you before we spend a day on one.
General information for commercial creditors, not legal advice. Deadlines turn on facts we have not seen — confirm specifics with qualified counsel before relying on any of it.
Your leverage
Not every past-due customer should be torched. We collect professionally so you can preserve the relationships that still have value — and escalate hard on the ones that don't.
Open-account terms, interest provisions, and personal guarantees in your paperwork give us tools most distributors never enforce. We use them.
FAQ
Yes. We pursue wholesale & distribution accounts throughout Austin and Central Texas, and nationwide through a network of licensed collection attorneys. There is no upfront cost — we work on contingency, and the fee is agreed before you place anything.
Stop calling and start documenting. Pull the invoices, the contract or purchase order, proof of delivery or acceptance, and the exact legal entity name of the debtor — not the trade name. Then check which deadline governs the account, because the leverage in this trade runs on a short clock. Silence usually means the debtor has decided you are not a priority, which is a different problem from inability to pay and is solved differently.
In Travis County, with the Travis County District Clerk. Which court depends on the amount and the relief sought, and that is the filing attorney's decision. Below the district and county courts, a justice court anywhere in Texas handles claims up to $20,000 (Tex. Gov't Code § 27.031) — the same ceiling in all 254 counties, not a local rule.
As soon as it is clearly past due rather than merely late. Commercial debt gets harder to collect as it ages — the trail goes cold, people leave, and entities dissolve. The expensive mistake is almost never acting too early.
No. We take commercial accounts only — money one business owes another. That is why the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, which governs consumer debt, generally does not reach this work. If the person who owes you is an individual consumer, we are not the right agency and we will tell you so.
Nothing upfront. We work on contingency — no retainer, no monthly minimum, and a fee charged only against funds actually recovered. The fee is agreed before you place anything.
Tell us what you're owed and we'll tell you exactly how we'd go after it. The review is free, and you pay nothing unless we collect.
