[QUOTE="Box Ox, post: 3403258, member: 48469"] This sounds trivial, but most folks won't actively do it: Whenever you're about to put a package on the shelf or on the floor, have a glance at the PAL labels in your immediate view. If it doesn't match what you're holding your head will letcha know. It's hard for anybody who wasn't a preloader to understand. But when the flow gets very heavy, and your back is to your trucks, it's not difficult to lose track of where you're standing and walk into the wrong truck. If your management team hasn't put route name signs up above the bulkhead door of every truck that you can see going in, they really should. Can miss the route names/load sheets on the outside of the trucks as you're making the motion to turn from the belt to the truck. I also had to occasionally prevent neighboring loaders from accidentally walking into my first or last trucks. This was solved by putting a large package or item at either end of my set. One that wouldn't block the belt catwalk, but would signal to my neighbor that they'd walked too far. [/QUOTE]
