[QUOTE="WhereDoIWorkAgain, post: 1188273, member: 44948"] It has been a big issue at my facility as well. We have a 2 major problems causing it. First in my 5 years at ups the number of irregs has increased probably 5 fold over where it was before (observation not confirmed numbers). They have a tendency to be somewhat randomly sprinkled into trailers where before they were always in the nose or tail and typically only stacked on other irregs (some long light packages or large light and flat were an exception). They are now crushing other packages and lots of times small packages are being used to fill between irregs. This causes a lot of damages. We also have a bad problem of trying to force way to much volume through the belts to fast. The average package is also much larger than what our buildings belt system was designed for 40 years ago. This means getting broken on the corners where packages bunch up. Oh add to it a fairly new sensor system that constantly stops the belts and standing orders in direct violation of listed policy to keep putting packages on the stopped belts at that point including stacking on the belts.
