The stuffing and de-stuffing process of containers is an essential part of the supply chain, as it prepares cargo for transport from warehouses to retail outlets. A thorough understanding of container stuffing, de-stuffing, and cross docking allows companies to make more informed choices about logistics management.
Damaged cargo from the process of stuffing and transportation can be caused by multiple factors which include uneven distribution of heavy goods, improper control of humidity and temperature, and negligence caused by shortcuts during the loading process. Unskillful stuffing could result in cargo shifting during transport, which can result in loss of valuable goods. This can be avoided by following a few best practices. Ensure that the cargo is evenly distributed and make use of dunnage (such as airbags or wood) to fill gaps or voids in the shipping container. When possible, palletize cargo and clearly label packages and boxes for easy identification.
