Related Party Transactions [Abstract]
RELATED PARTIES DISCLOSURES	RELATED PARTIES DISCLOSURES The Board uses policies and procedures, to be applied by the Audit Committee of the Board, for review, approval or ratification of any transactions with related persons. Those policies and procedures will apply to any proposed transactions in which DXP is a participant, the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and any director, executive officer or significant shareholder or any immediate family member of such a person has a direct or material indirect interest. Any related party transaction will be reviewed by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors to determine, among other things, the benefits of any transaction to DXP, the availability of other sources of comparable products or services and whether the terms of the proposed transaction are comparable to those provided to unrelated third parties. For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company paid approximately $ 2.2 million in lease expenses to entities controlled by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, David Little.
