For millennia, those involved in delivery work have planned their loads and, as part of that, optimized their use of the available space. Anyone who thinks this is a modern science is simply mistaken.
When the ancient Romans shipped grain from Egypt to Rome in cargo vessels, you can be sure the loads were planned in order to get the maximum amount possible into every single ship. They would have been no more inclined to just ‘throw in’ everything that came to hand at random than we are.
The same would have been true for canal barges in the 18th century or horse-drawn wagons in the 19th.
21st Century Challenges
Yet for today's’ delivery work companies, things ARE different in many respects.
Firstly, elements such as health and safety would have been an abstract concept throughout much of the history of transport. It’s no longer enough to plan a load simply with the objective of getting a theoretical maximum amount possible into a vehicle. Things such as safe loading laws must be taken into account also.
Secondly, in the past, environmental considerations played little or no part in load planning. By contrast, today it’s important to plan loads in totality, so as to try to limit the number of individual journeys made in a given period.
Finally, transport throughout large parts of history was often a highly dangerous business. As a result, costs could be high and margins likewise. Many people in past centuries became extremely rich just as shippers, but today margins are under intense pressure and efficiency is king. A little loading inefficiency perhaps wasn’t typically a big deal in the past, whereas today it could make the difference between business survival and business failure.
Load Planning – It’s Not Easy
Anyone who has significant experience of load planning within delivery work will readily confirm that it’s not easy.
Even when everything is theoretically ‘straightforward’ in terms of the load, such as having a large consignment of regular-sized cartons adding up to 75 cubic meters, it can then defy the laws of physics by refusing to fit into an 85 cubic meter trailer!
The problems become at least an order of magnitude greater when you start having loads of multiple different individual consignments, odd shapes, sizes and varying weights. If that’s not bad enough, there is then the need to plan the load to make multiple tips practical and taking all that into account with things such as axle weight distributions and so on.
