    Are you a side loader or a van trailer? If you have a pallet jack just bring the pallet to the door and build your carts.

    That doesn’t work very well. Just like with a pallet jack, getting the big wheels over it is easy. Getting the small wheels over it is not.

    You gotta trust yourself and just do it. Remember, it’s a straight truck. It’s the same mechanics as backing your personal vehicle. Push yourself and get as close as you can to where you’re bringing the soda to. That stuff is HEAVY and the less trips and distance you walk it will seriously make your job MUCH easier

    10 stops and 200 cases is my typical day but its a sidebay where everything gets unloaded from the truck by hand then brought into the store to be worked so more like 400 plus cases. All that in 8 to 12 hours

    It wouldn't be bad if it wasn't due to the fact that i have to stock the coolers and also stack up all the cases and rearrange crap in the cooler
