Reefer load securement question.

Or all dock workers should have truck driving experience before being allowed on fork lifts!

 

Truth be told, it would not be a bad idea if truck drivers, forklift operators, and loading dock workers did cross train in each others jobs.

 

I would make the guy unload the whole trailer and reload it my way

 

Trucker asks, "Yeah, but can you imagine those idiot lumpers driving a truck?"

Dock worker asks, "Yeah, but can you imagine those idiot truckers trying to load a trailer so the load will weight right and won't shift?"

 

I use load locks, mine are jack style that split in half. depends on how strong the trailer is. certainly better to have the load pushed forward,

 

Which is fine, as long as you can scale out OK. But with some loads, a belly load is the only logical answer. Then some type of securement is needed.
