Warehouse Container Unloading Planning Guide | Sunwings

<h2>Know what is arriving</h2><p>Share the container size, approximate piece count, pallet information and any unusually heavy products before scheduling labour.</p><h2>Prepare the staging area</h2><p>Clear enough floor space for the unload and decide where product should be staged before the container is opened.</p><h2>Match the crew to the job</h2><p>Container unloading can require labour only or a combination of labour and transport. The right crew size depends on volume, handling requirements and your deadline.</p><h2>Plan the next movement</h2><p>If inventory needs to be transferred, shelved or moved to another location, include that in the job plan so the work can continue without unnecessary downtime.</p>
