Abstract

A household, as a significant generator of logistics flows, can be viewed as an entity with input, output and internal flows and mutually dependent attributes describing it (function/activity, location, ordering and supply systems, size and frequency of delivery, etc.). Affiliation with an urban, suburban or rural area has a particularly significant impact on the characteristics of the logistics flows of the household. In addition, the structure of logistics flows depends on the functions of the household, changes in the environment, interactions of the household with other generators of logistics flows, as well as the role of the household and its resources in the supply chains. Effective management of household logistics requires serious research into the complex flows structure and their interaction with household attributes and changing environmental conditions. This paper presents the basic attributes of the household as a generator of logistics demands, describes various interactions with the environment, and structures household logistics flows. In addition, the basic characteristics of each category of logistics flows are presented.
