The Old Man's career dries up, Snackbar transfers to Crete from Shaffer

For gods sake don't let operations hear you say that

 

How many guys were working the trailer? If it takes 5 seconds to move a piece, than 1,800 picies would take one person 2.5 hours. Personally, restacking 1 pallet is going to take me about 15 minutes, so 24 pallets is going g to take at least 5 hours by myself, more if I have to get each pallet signed off on.

How far did the pallet have to go once off the truck? If it's a 400 foot round trip, just moving 28 pallets is going to be about an hour. If they're double stacked, add 20 minutes to down stack and double transit time. Pinwheeling is going to add another 20 minutes. Without re-palletizing anything you're already looking at 2 hours.

Now make it a mixed load where different pallets go to different spots in the warehouse. Or have the 40 m pallets breakdown into 300 different pallets.

There are plenty of reasons why these unloads can get ridiculous.

 

Good, a new thread to follow while sitting on the crapper in the morning. Count me in!

 

That New Braunfels drop is a Sam’s Distribution Center. Been there many times. The MT’s are located on a gravel lot north of the center on Old Bastrop Road if none are at the drop. Just go north on I-35 and take the Old Bastrop Road exit.
