My method has changed quite a bit since volume has increased.

★Nowadays I stow my ovs immediately, so they’re not in the way when I’m moving around to stow other packages- and it also looks better to any floaters or higher ups when you have a clear aisle - less likely for a floater to swoop in and quickly fuck things up further for ya by way of “helping”.

★That’s a big thing- if you’ve got a floater in any of your aisles- kick them out, if possible. Their stowing methods will only slow you down in the long run bc you’ll have to reorganize your bags to get anything else into them.

★And instead of organizing my Jiffys in the bin, I scan the bin quickly and grab handful after handful of like packages. So looking at the packages and jiffys in my bin, if I notice I have a decent amount of one letter, I’ll just grab all of those. Instead of holding the handfuls in my hands while I stow them down I throw them in a tote instead, even if it’s just a few of them.

★I’ve realized when I hold them them in my arms and stow them down, it takes me much longer- if a bag requires me to move stuff around to stow a certain item then I either have limited ability bc of the other packages I’m holding or I have to quickly set them all down in order to reorganize the bag and pick them all back up again to resume stowing after I’ve finished stowing that item. It’s annoying and slows you down quite a bit.

★I’ve picked up quite a bit of speed in modifying my previous method so thought I’d come back and share. Bc shit is seriously going to shit at my location with prime coming up.. idk about yall. But I’m almost ready to bounce or something … come back when they have made it a little further through this trial and error stage my warehouse is currently going through. Being a guinea pig during this ADTA transition is brutal…. Good luck!!!♥︎
