Try to load all the shelves as orderly as possible. Sometimes the shelves are too small for all the packages, in which case I'd use the floor, but keeping things together, e.g. putting seq 8000-8499 on the shelves-in good order-but dropping 8500 to the end on the floor, and let driver know.
As for loading four or more trucks, when selecting your packages, especially in the beginning of the day try to pick packages of trucks close together, leaving your fifth car packages for another pull. Key word here is TRY. If the first two or three packages you touch are for the last car then you better go to the last car. Remember, DO NOT SKIP ANY BINS!
Oh, one caveat about skipping bins: after your bins are somewhat cleared out, you may decide to pass up on a very light bin and focus on a really heavy bin. Of course, you are going to pull more than four from the heavy bin. Same principle applies when you have an empty bin followed by a bin with more than 4 (since you normally only take 4 per bin) packages in it.
