just started this week. i'm glad i watched this vid. my trainers are crazy stacking up like 7ft high and expect me to do the job as good as them. it's more time consuming for me if i have to struggle to even scoop and carry the stack i barely can control. i feel comfortable stacking just below my head. i can move a lot quicker too.

Ya man sometimes building wild stacks will take the same amount of time as smaller stacks as long as you walk fast

Fuck! Imagine not finding parking by the front of the store!

Good way to domino with your stacks so close! I've dominoed one time and learned my lesson.

If you stack them right and you’re not aren’t clumsy/uncoordinated person then you’ll be just fine lol

They need to invent a side loader trailer where the floor of each door is on it's own hydraulic lift. So for example you open door 3 hit a button and that indivisual floor on door 3 drops to the ground. Also make the floor telescope so if you want you can move the floor onto the side of the trailer for easy access like if you parked next to a curb.

Ya man sometimes it is a struggle. But usually I go 4 times a week. Sometimes 5. I always try to get in plenty of calories and water at work. I also try not to go home between work and gym. Usually bring my work out clothes and pre workout to work. One of them things you just gotta do it. I know what you mean tho it’s a physical job for sure!

zm_trucker thank you for replying with info. I just started working for a company & it’s unreal how much product is on one truck each day. I tried rolling in heavy dollys but after dropping a 30pack I backed down on how much I try to roll in. The guys look like they hate I won’t go big! I wanna get off early but not at the risk of being known for dropping product. It’s only my 1st week🤷🏾‍♂️.

Why did you down stack it all why didn’t you just build it on the cart and go in with with it? Doesn’t that consume more time?

Bigger stops it goes quicker down stacking it especially when the store checks it in you can bring it in while they’re checking it. If it was only a couple stacks like at a bar I would just stack it on the hand cart.
