Maximising Efficiency: Tautliner Loading Tips and Tricks
Here are some expert tips to maximise efficiency and safety during loading and unloading:
- Smart Load Distribution: Place heavier items at the bottom and front, lighter items on top and rear for better stability and fuel efficiency.
- Strategic Side Access: Load in reverse delivery order to save time at multiple stops. Perfect for retail and event deliveries.
- Secure Cargo Properly: Use our provided tie-downs and load bars to prevent movement during transit. Add cushioning for delicate items.
- Safe Handling: Use appropriate lifting equipment like pallet jacks or forklifts for heavy loads. Always wear proper safety gear.
These practices will help you save time, improve safety and reduce costs across your transport operations.
