Shifts waste
November 1st 2007

A mobile dock lift from Transdek UK has increased productivity and efficiency at United Co-op's Talke regional distribution centre in Staffordshire, while allowing the main vehicle access between warehouse and yard to be used when required.

Waste cardboard is delivered to the RDC in roll cages every day.

Previously, when the two loading bays were occupied, vehicles were unloaded in the yard by tail-lift.

However, this method was slow and tied up drivers for too long.

Transdek installed a dock lift that could unload cages more quickly and could be used to load empty cages on to double-deck trailers.

The equipment had to be movable to allow trucks to travel between building and yard; this requirement was met by fitting retractable wheels on the lift chassis.

No civil engineering work was necessary.
