[QUOTE="HBGPreloader, post: 1421488, member: 19782"] Too many stops, ridiculous bulk stops, etc are nothing we loaders have no control over. Making matters worse, the supervisors don't care and management's answer is "make it work". The way I try to load is all air goes either in a tote on the 1000 shelf or on the same shelf next to the tote. If it's air for a rear door stop, I'll either keep them out until the end or keep them as close to the rear door as possible. Anything over 60# goes on the floor, ideally in numerical order - on the side it's supposed to be. Over 70's stay on the floor, towards the back of car - if there is room. And, if there is room, I'll hide over 70's under the rear door stops - unless they're air or coming off sooner. All stops are, ideally, kept together. So, if I'm getting 6 packages for one stop and 3 or 4 are bulky, I'll put all 6 on the floor. Finally, if it's a ridiculous bulk stop, it will get loaded up the center, leaving ~3' near the cab so the driver can still get to his air. And, if there is any air with the rear door stops, I'll try to leave room to get those stops off, completely, before the bulk stop too. [/QUOTE]
