[QUOTE="Norma, post: 754879, member: 29772"] Do you have a business or a residential route? 3 or 4 cars? I think it does make a difference. UPS teaches a 1 size fits all method to loading trucks. It works for the majority of trucks but not for all. To me PAL labels facing out is only important in the first hour or 2 to use as reference points. (If you really followed the 23 steps to loading a package, you would have been fired by now.) As someone else alluded to, don't waste any time with PAL labels on bulk stops. Look at your manifest. Visually plan out what bulk stop will go where on the floor. This is more tricky and could be a personal thing, but have a visual idea ahead of time of where your package is going. For example this 2100 package will fit nicely in the corner of the shelf of my #16 truck. If you get there and the scenery is different, you could be in the wrong package car. Another personal thing with me is that I can't talk and think at the same time. People yapping away the whole night have a higher number of missorts on average (fact). Always, always, always be working as far up the belt as possible. If you are sorting packages behind your third car you are doomed. [/QUOTE]
