Operating in an industry that requires frequent loading and unloading of freight can be stressful, as you’re constantly worrying about maintaining efficiency and meeting shipment deadlines. If you oversee a warehouse, you should be utilizing lumper services.
Lumper services include loading and unloading your warehouse’s freight through a third-party company that specializes in this kind of work. Rather than relying on your warehouse employees to handle your loading and unloading needs, here are three reasons to leave this work to professional lumpers:
- Efficiency. You don’t want to load half of a truck only to realize that it’s been loaded incorrectly and your freight won’t all fit in the space. Having to unload and load again costs valuable time and energy, but with professional lumper services, you won’t have to worry about this inefficiency. They know how to load and unload with maximum efficiency.
- Employee safety. Keeping your employees safe is important, which is why you should leave the loading and unloading to the professionals who know how to keep themselves safe during the process. When you hire lumper services, you know all of the lumpers are physically strong and skilled enough to handle your loading and unloading needs. Plus, they have training specifically on how to avoid injury.
- Product safety. In addition to keeping themselves safe, lumper workers also know how to keep your products safe. You don’t want your products getting damaged when they’re being loaded or unloaded, so leave this process to the people who know how to keep even fragile products from getting damaged or broken.
