This best practice should be followed while loading. Loading is an important function when you’re shipping something to a customer or a retailer. You could have done a great job picking the order, packing the order, stacking the boxes in the pallets nicely all that you could have done, but if you don’t load your products or merchandise or pallets properly all the work that you’ve done is going to go away. It’s because when…

This is another video on the best practices that you could follow while loading the product in your distribution center. One important thing that you could do is applying the right labels on the product, because when people see the labels they would be careful while handling these products, the pallet, and the merchandise. When you tell them with the label ahead of time they will be a lot more careful about doing their job…

This is another best practice that you can use in your warehouse. I think this is more for a  LTL (less than truckload) like a within a town delivery. You are not doing a long-haul driving like 100  miles or 200 miles you’re making in town delivery in a LTL fashion. For example, if there is expensive furniture that you’re delivering and you don’t want it to get scratches and dents, if it’s a minor…

This best practice is about applying the seal especially when it is a FTL’s shipment. FTL a full truck load container shipment trailer that’s going from point A to point B. It’s important to apply the seal and the seal number, and take the picture of that seal number and upload it to LoadProof so in case if you are a recipient or if you are a shipper you can see the photograph. If you’re…

This is another best practice that you could use to make sure that nobody stacks anything on top of your pallet. If you are shipping anything on top of your pallet, it may be a specific product or few pallets through a carrier, this often happens. When you ship something to your retailer and obviously the retailers have a large volume of products that they sell through their stores. They pick up the products from…

This is another best practice that you can follow while you’re loading your products in the trailer container. It’s always important to do a great job loading and obviously your team did a great job picking the product, boxing the product, and then nicely stacking them in pallets. The pallets are then shrink-wrapped and ready to go. It’s important to load them perfectly because while the truck or the trailer is going there are a…

Transcript This is another interesting question that came from one of our customers and this was like “hey we have this problem where we are shipping these pallets and somehow these pallets are broken into two and and they get delivered as two different pallets”. Even though they tell the carrier or whoever they are shipping through that nobody’s supposed to be doing that. What they found out was that the solution was to fully…

Here is another interesting dynamic about LoadProof. Apparently somebody in their organization is interested and somebody saw the value of the product – LoadProof provides.  We get to talk to them and they’re curious. They want to learn more, and in our conversation this comes up: “hey we already use Google Drive, and we store pictures in Google Drive and and it was great for us”. This was actually a very interesting story. An intern…

If you are looking at little automation in your warehouse this is the best practice to lookout. If you are automating your warehouse in terms of conveyors or sorters or even robots it would make a lot of sense to mark your SKUs as conveyable or not conveyable, sortable or non-sortable and as the robots coming everywhere robotable or non-robotable. The last thing you want to do is make a small product or a big…
