Re: Shipping hints for USPS

A five foot drop is nothing when compared to;

- The tip up and unload method; that's were 45' trailers loaded with our
parcels is parked on and secured to a hydraulic ramp that raises at one end,
facilitating the movement of parcels from the front (Now the top) of the
trailer to the rear (Now the bottom). Parcels exit the trailer and fall into
a funnel shaped bin were its guided into position for a drop to the conveyer
belt or;

- the drop kick method I've heard is used to facilitate hand sorting; that's
were the parcel is placed on the floor of the sorting facility and
drop-kicked by nearly every worker as they guide it to it's respective drop
bin.
