Agree your training week isn't about speed it's about building. Now before I even start selecting I have the pallet half way built in my head. Learn the cases and learn the product. Your absolutely right take pride in whatever you do
In my DC we have a lot of cases that just won't be the same from week to week, and the slot you start at and finish at each trip is going to be different
Update, it’s been a year since I started selecting. I’ve learned a few things that have made me better and better at work. But a good tip I like to give to the newbies at my warehouse is try taking only one step for each case, don’t walk around your pallets, and try to leave space throughout your build for larger/ awkward boxes.
Agreed, figured this out early on. Focus on internalizing and visualizing what a nice pallet looks like, as you get used to the boxes and knowing where things go you will naturally get faster. But speed is not the priority in training
Employers don’t help. They keep preaching speed speed speed but never tell you that by learning to build properly, the speed comes without even trying.
I run an average of 136 and I’ve been at my warehouse for going on 3 months (first time working in a warehouse). Really it’s just memorizing the products whenever you begin picking and keeping the same method of stacking with those products once you learn them.
It’s good if you’re under 40. I’ve been doing it for 7 years and my arms are torn up. Went back to school and got a degree so I don’t have to do that shit work again
@@kevinm5898in Publix you can change to a similar pay position probably manufacturing after 4 months a friend of mine did it without signing the 80% minimum speed agreement
I can walk 110% It's a million and one ways to order select. Every selector is different. Some will care about stacking and percentage. Some care more about speed than stacking. This new guy asked me how do I walk and overlap him with orders. Simply, the more you pick cases in a warehouse, mentally you know what you're going to get and you have to set yourself up for the next case. The first picture is a dairy order. Most warehouses with dairy, the first 2 or 3 aisles the cases are going to match. Don't leave gaps between cases. If its a gap, turn a case or 2 around and close it. A few cases will be slightly higher than others. Always put taller cases on the corner of your pallet. Once you learn your warehouse and orders, your stacking will become your speed. This job is 75% mental and 25% physical. Once you get to the end of dairy, where you get all the small cases just throw it on top of your pallet. No need to stack that.
@@brilavie3809 It’s called a check digit. Every warehouse is different. If you’re new, someone should’ve did a walk through to show you. If not,ask. It’s usually a 2 digit number, next to the slot numbers, all on the same sticker for the slot. The more orders you do, you will start to memorize some check digits that’ll give your % small boost.
Just started at a week and thanks to your advice I'm going to try and apply it hit 86% my first run but fell down to 52% also due to equipment malfunction but I think from now on I'll come in a little earlier so I can be prepared for everything
Great video tim, that dairy pass almost didn't make it haha. I stress what you say to every selector that I train/help. Usaully the best/highest performing selectors have one thing in common they know how to build. They also work smart not hard, 70% of my cases are on the odd side of the aisle. Their jack stays on that side and they walk the 30% to their pallet rather than moving their jack back and forth.
I'd just like to ad, as far as times/percentages go, make sure your not pissing time away through out your shifts. I'm talking about long breaks/lunches, pausing during an assignment to play with your phone, talk to somebody, daydream, rubber neck, etc. All these little things add up (a few seconds here, a few minutes there) and your just shooting yourself in the foot, and you have to bust your ass to make this time up. Once you button up all these areas your giving away/losing time, your percentages/times will be better, and come easier.
Brother, you think just like me my job doesn’t let me train anymore because I was that good and a few other union places as well now they have guys that are just lazy and wouldn’t be off the clock to train now the warehouse is falling apart. No one helps not even the union We hope things get better for us, but it’s not looking so well, but the company will not leave the union because we are number one in our whole company. We’re both by company and we push out the most product but still you speak the truth and might think alike, which I think it’s great awesome job man.
hey man just subbed . i used to pull for Kehe for about 4 months, but i left cuz my daughter was born and i wanted to be there for the first couple years until she went to school, went to UPS, loved it but couldn't be part time for 8+ years just to be full time. i started working at UNFI, my first week alone, im picking 60% , thought i should give it another go and take it more serious. i feel like i move so fast but im stuck in the 60's. but im just taking it day by day , trying to learn my warehouse. i'm going up in percents everyday even if its just a little. your videos help. i really wanna get this down.
Usually when you're moving fast but throwing low percentages it's because you don't have a system down yet. It can take months. Definitely come over to Discord and try watching some of my selection videos from my channel. I do voice overs to explain why I'm doing what I'm doing.
@@TheWarehouseSeries yeah listening to your advice, i do take too many steps and touch the same package too many times. let's see how today goes. (ill have to make a discord i'll let u know when i do or find my old password)
just finished my shift, thanks to your videos i'm picking at mid 70% on my 2nd week. i can only see myself going up from here. thank you for all your help so far. i could NOT get out that 60 percentile
Personally, I’ve found that I am able to achieve over 100% by stacking the product on the same side from which I am picking. So if I have to pick 20 boxes of open case grapes, I will stack all 20 on the one side that I pick from And fill in the other side with other product that I pick on other side . This will sometimes produce questionable pallets but unfortunately that’s sometimes the price we have to pay to achieve standards.
The problem in the warehouse im at is there are huge quantities and one side of the aisle is just inbound reserve stock. The best technique available in that aisle is to put the products on the other side of the pallet and work inwards.
Im new, and run in the cooler. Its hard to run a decent number when they give you 180+ cases and most of them are over 50 pounds of bullshit in a soggy ass cardboard box, or when 90lb cases of beef. Or when a higher up tells you to "tower stack" the 90lb cases of beef until its 7 foot tall because thats "how they like it". Or when the "let down" guys are just gonna wait untill you have 3 full pallets to give you the chicken that was shorted, so that you can find a way to put it on the bottom. Or when the some asshole takes your role of "oh shit tape" from your lift when you really need it.
I just started a few weeks ago, but basically told after I was hired that if I don't get to 100% after the 90 days ik going to be let go. I don't know how I'm gonna get my numbers up. I'm working as hard as I can. I need this job.
@@TheSketchyEddieYa I just ended up leaving that place. Not good for your body and also hated getting out at like 3-4am every night, can't even have a life like that. Got a day job and a lot happier now.
Jack placement is the most overlooked factor when it comes to speed. To save your body you should be picking up the case as close to pallet your stacking on as possible. You should be able to pick up the case and put it down without having to walk at all almost. I have super good stacking and I pull a 160-180 everyday for max incentive
You guys need the llop with 3 cages on the back setup. The ppt and pallet setup is old now. All those problems are because of the whole ppt and pallet setup. It's old. With the llop and cages setup it's best to build your base and then build outside inwards. I drive a toyota reach flt and always help the new pickers.
12 weeks in, Stuck in the 90 -97 % smh. But these def help. Find what works and stick with it. Yesterday was the first time i felt like i nailed produce. I try to stick to open cases/ 5 block on the front. Solid 7 block in the back. Hope it helps. Dairy is my challenge. So many cases smh.
Been picking in produce (dry/wet/cold) for about 2.5 months now and i’m right around 70% working weekend, feel like i’m doing good but my manager seems to want me to move faster but i already bust my ass
Job gave me a 6 pack. But one thing I learned is management doesn’t care. They just use you. You’re nothing but a slave to them. Every warehouse job I’ve been to I was forced an into a promotion against my will for my “amazing” work ethic. Smh I’m high 24/7 it’s the only way I can do this shitty job. Thank god I went and got a degree so I don’t have to do that again
I have to absolutely run nd rush to get barley over 100. Meanwhile i have coworkers who look like they are strolling thru a park nd they run a 120. Howww lol
Hey can you do a video on the talkman head set vocalic like the tricks in the tips to using it I have the stacking and speed and packed it's just the headset lol great video too
Hey man I need help I'm at Albertsons just started the only thing I'm having trouble with is the stacking on my first day I did 97 that's because I put the cases where my mind tells me to put it then the supervisor tell me I got the speed but my stacking need work
Join my Discord since we have Albertsons workers there to help. 97 on day 1 is incredible! If you join Discord try to take pictures of your work. Best way to help
Your pallets look similar to HEB where im at. My question is how do you go about stacking a large quantity of small different size boxes? I’m pull up to each slot and I only have to pick 1 then I’m left with uneven corners and pretty much a unstable pallet.
I hear what you're saying but if we don't make our standard we get fired. Selectors honestly do not care that much about the truck which they probably should
Hey bruvs I just became a selector at Sysco bout a month a good it’s good I love it can’t complain, just the constant thing I get is my pallets are stacking wrong and to be honest they come out like some of those bad one you showed 🤣🤣 some people tell me you gonna get it eventually and some others be like you got it or you don’t but I notice that at least at least maybe maybe for every 10 batches I get maybe 3 tops 4 looks ok maybe 5😂 come out pretty bad like the ones in the picture but at times I catch myself just stacking natural to me like one of those Good ones you posted they come along nicely sometimes but I do get easily discouraged sometimes I’m I ever gonna get to a point where it can be perfect? Just a thought in my mind I have since I’ve been working sorry , hope to hear from you thnx God bless
The biggest thing is when something works stick with it. Like in my videos with my work I place cases the same way every time. Once in awhile I might have to change something to get it to work but for the most part it's the same. Repetition is key but only if you're taking mental notes of what's working
i pick 110-120 idk why im here lol but at US foods its way different product, restaurants vs grocey stores! solid advice tho keep up the good work. especially with the touch it once bs!
I know if I have just a few cases and a big order I'll drop pallets off somewhere and go get my cases. That way your not moving slow with pallets still on jack. Another thing I do is if ai see the replen grabbing the product but they are held up I will call out the case and grab it when it's in
I tower stack the bottles, probably a mistake I know! Cages end up with cases coming sticking out, causing the cases to fall. Should I use interlocking?
How long you've been selecting?Once you get a base established you can go faster. Also move faster on easier parts of the Warehouse (different order) so when you get a bigger order you can move a little slower.
@Itstheonlyjimmy as long as he is progressing day by day they most likely won’t let him go. There’s people at my job that first started with no experience and they were pulling 30% then the next few weeks they were at 50,then 55 percent. Now they are at 60-65 percent. Some people learn slower than others. Now if your going backwards yea your going to be gone
I'm 8 weeks in and only at 50 percent. I'm suppose to be at 70 and am about to be forced to switch departments. I have 3 weeks to get up to 85 percent. I am an emotional wreck and am gonna do my best but I need to fix this and don't know how to improve my rate
Well we have a new system at my job right now and it’s called “the manhattan project” that’s system is giving us 4 minutes to pick up 20 cases and bring to the door, 0.9 second for a 1 cases to bring it to the door 28 minutes to pick up 313 cases. How I’m supposed to do 100%
I beat my times on every order but a lot of days my percentage is 93 to 97% and other days I'm at 110+. I can beat my times all day n still be at a 97% why is that?
Basically finding what works in ever part of the Warehouse and doing the same thing every time. So I literally have a good idea what my finished pallet will look like before throwing 1 case
Assuming you use the same system we do in the UK. If you get a base pick of say 20 cases of beer, you can pick them, confirm amount, exit the job, wait a few minutes then part pick the same ticket, you can generally gain 20-25 minutes extra for the job. You can't do every job or you'll get sussed by management.
You ever DELIVER these Pallets? I did foodservice Delivery for 15 years and I can honestly say the most important thing was Not how the Pallet looked, but that the product came off in the right order. Stop1 off the pallet first, stop2 second, yada yada yada. Digging all day when you have 18 stops to get off REALLY sucks. Some off best Pallets look shitty, but come off in order. When I saw a perfect cube, it was dig time. No good......
I'm glad I found this channel I'm a new order selector worker at European imports sysco going take a test on getting certified on pallets jack I used work at hidden valley as palletizing 1 year and I work for FedEx 5 years
lol, had the same experience back in the day. I had 2 different trainers my first 3 days, they both sat in the cross-aisle and read the news paper, acted like I was there to steal their jobs or something. Luckily on my fourth day I got a third/different guy, he was awsome. Treated me like I was his little brother, showed me everything. He's the reason I made it, and the reason I try to be a good trainer now.
And cases don't go where they"fit" they go accordingly to the stops and the way the pallet goes into the trailer, your missing the real point. Driver's don't get the luxury or having a warehouse to work in we got 3-4ft wide and need to get in and out of the trailer
@@TheWarehouseSeries Is there no incentive at your job? Also, do you know the CPH required to pull 100% in each department? I believe at my DC the freezer used to be around 250, but now it's over 300.
@TheWarehouseSeries what is the best time to call off your next trip in the wrap machine or when you drop your pallets i need to bump up my production to get higher numbers can you provide me with additional tips
Sooooo, the only thing you said differently than what my trainer said was about touching the box once. Otherwise, your just saying put this here, put that there. And telling people how you would do it. Just like the trainers. Thumbs down bro.
Stacking a pallet is common sense. Teaching them how to do it faster, I didn't see that in the video. Just telling people how you do it isn't helpful at all. I see all different techniques but none teaching exactly how to be faster. Just how not to build a bad pallet.

Once in awhile I might have to change something to get it to work but for the most part it's the same. Repetition is key but only if you're taking mental notes of what's working
Hey can u do a video or give tips on how to peal sticker of faster I work for sysco
We used stickers in the past, are you holding them or are they being printed?
@@TheWarehouseSeries there being printed as we scan the case
i pick 110-120 idk why im here lol but at US foods its way different product, restaurants vs grocey stores! solid advice tho keep up the good work. especially with the touch it once bs!
We have a lot of experienced selectors on Discord who help newer selectors. Definitely US Food selectors
All selectors first part of training should be in the back of a trailer
Definitely wouldn't hurt
Tommorow will be my first day as Order selector at sysco. wish me luck guyzz!!
Aby questions, ask
Hey , i just got selected at Sysco as an order selector, I would like to know about the experience of it.
@@kiddogamingop7208have you started yet
I get orders that are 140 cases for like 35 minutes. I dont have time to rearrange my cases. Any suggestions?
It's hard to say without some information. Are you on Discord?
It's awesome if you can take pics
Trying to get my out of stock is killing my time. What’s the best way to get your out of stock
I know if I have just a few cases and a big order I'll drop pallets off somewhere and go get my cases. That way your not moving slow with pallets still on jack. Another thing I do is if ai see the replen grabbing the product but they are held up I will call out the case and grab it when it's in
And if the case that your going back for is heavy or big build accordingly so it's easy to put that case on.
Yall lucky, we get 50 case pallets but every case is basically different and you start with dairy first.
What company
I appreciate the video I would like to become a professional order selector
It’s hard to do at my job, they expect you to run 100% in the beginning
No probation weeks?
What you mean when you say you would of threw the waters?
I haven't watched this in awhile, what was I referring to?
Love your channel. Any advice on plastic bottles, water, coke, etc. Thanks in advance.
Thank you. Are they all in clear wrap?
@@TheWarehouseSeries yes, all in clear wrap. They range from 4, 6 sometimes 8 bottle's.
@@annmariekhan4346 may I ask what are you struggling with? Not coming out level or not sturdy? Are you able to send pics in Discord?
I tower stack the bottles, probably a mistake I know! Cages end up with cases coming sticking out, causing the cases to fall. Should I use interlocking?
@@annmariekhan4346 definitely keep all the way on pallet and definitely tie in (interlock)
Question i just started at Sysco any tips to get up to rate
Best thing I can tell you besides watching my videos is ro join Discord. We have many Sysco workers over there
@@TheWarehouseSeries how do i get in the discord?
@@chriswilson3394 download the Discord app in app store and click link in description in any of my videos
Hey Tim, I always have trouble with orders that are longer , 40 - 55 mins. I always end up with a 50% on them 😬 any tips?
How long you've been selecting?Once you get a base established you can go faster. Also move faster on easier parts of the Warehouse (different order) so when you get a bigger order you can move a little slower.
@@TheWarehouseSeries bout 2 months
@Itstheonlyjimmy as long as he is progressing day by day they most likely won’t let him go. There’s people at my job that first started with no experience and they were pulling 30% then the next few weeks they were at 50,then 55 percent. Now they are at 60-65 percent. Some people learn slower than others. Now if your going backwards yea your going to be gone
100% correct

Do you have any tips for stacking the fruit?
Open top box fruit?
I'm 8 weeks in and only at 50 percent. I'm suppose to be at 70 and am about to be forced to switch departments. I have 3 weeks to get up to 85 percent.
I am an emotional wreck and am gonna do my best but I need to fix this and don't know how to improve my rate
Join Discord and take pictures of your work. I will help out as much as possible
What happened? Did you end up getting where you needed to be?
Well we have a new system at my job right now and it’s called “the manhattan project” that’s system is giving us 4 minutes to pick up 20 cases and bring to the door, 0.9 second for a 1 cases to bring it to the door 28 minutes to pick up 313 cases. How I’m supposed to do 100%
We have the Manhattan system. That is not right
I beat my times on every order but a lot of days my percentage is 93 to 97% and other days I'm at 110+. I can beat my times all day n still be at a 97% why is that?
That is a good question. Ask someone at your work if they print out daily progress reports. It will literally have everything you did for the day
What does find a system entail?
Basically finding what works in ever part of the Warehouse and doing the same thing every time. So I literally have a good idea what my finished pallet will look like before throwing 1 case
Part pick your own uncomplete pallet, gain extra time for nada. Slot 183, Check String.
Can you elaborate on what you mean?
Assuming you use the same system we do in the UK. If you get a base pick of say 20 cases of beer, you can pick them, confirm amount, exit the job, wait a few minutes then part pick the same ticket, you can generally gain 20-25 minutes extra for the job. You can't do every job or you'll get sussed by management.
@@JonnyRootsDem we definitely cannot do that
@@TheWarehouseSeries why not
@@JonnyRootsDem we are not allowed to back out of an order
You ever DELIVER these Pallets? I did foodservice Delivery for 15 years and I can honestly say the most important thing was Not how the Pallet looked, but that the product came off in the right order. Stop1 off the pallet first, stop2 second, yada yada yada. Digging all day when you have 18 stops to get off REALLY sucks. Some off best Pallets look shitty, but come off in order. When I saw a perfect cube, it was dig time. No good......
Great point
Yes we are trained to only touch 1nce
I agree to disagree
Is a case picker harder that case selector
It's the same thing, just people call it differently
Now there's cherry pickers who pick in the air on lifts
I'm glad I found this channel I'm a new order selector worker at European imports sysco going take a test on getting certified on pallets jack
I used work at hidden valley as palletizing 1 year and I work for FedEx 5 years
Wish you luck and glad I can help
Bro, my 4 days with trainer, he'd just walked off n said knock urself out. they dont even teach u pallet building here in uk 😎
Great way to start a job. With no training. Places do the same things here as well
Who you working for
lol, had the same experience back in the day. I had 2 different trainers my first 3 days, they both sat in the cross-aisle and read the news paper, acted like I was there to steal their jobs or something.
Luckily on my fourth day I got a third/different guy, he was awsome. Treated me like I was his little brother, showed me everything. He's the reason I made it, and the reason I try to be a good trainer now.
love it #HackTheAlgo
And cases don't go where they"fit" they go accordingly to the stops and the way the pallet goes into the trailer, your missing the real point. Driver's don't get the luxury or having a warehouse to work in we got 3-4ft wide and need to get in and out of the trailer
Our warehouse doesn't have multiple stops on one pallet
What’s you’re averages?
Over 100%. That's all I shoot for
If I get too high I slow down
@@TheWarehouseSeries
Is there no incentive at your job? Also, do you know the CPH required to pull 100% in each department? I believe at my DC the freezer used to be around 250, but now it's over 300.
@@randall2158 we do have incentives and we really don't calculate cases we just go by percentage
That's because the trainers are usually garbage
💯
@TheWarehouseSeries what is the best time to call off your next trip in the wrap machine or when you drop your pallets i need to bump up my production to get higher numbers can you provide me with additional tips
Is that how to be faster 🤔
Just my opinion, please add to it or let us know how you would do it differently. We all learn on here
@TheWarehouseSeries I'm a picker . I just wanted to learn how to be a fast picker. Thank you
Jesus Christ, took 1:20 or so to promote his shit
This is an older video, I'm a lot faster now. It took comments like this to change the way I did things
Sooooo, the only thing you said differently than what my trainer said was about touching the box once. Otherwise, your just saying put this here, put that there. And telling people how you would do it. Just like the trainers. Thumbs down bro.
I understand, I'm not going to help everyone. If there is something specific you're looking for hope I can help. Thanks for commenting
In my opinion then you had a good trainer
Not everyone is fortunate to get a good trainer
@@michaeltigg1926 he probably did but there is so much information thrown at you in 1 week. I can only try to help as many as possible
Stacking a pallet is common sense. Teaching them how to do it faster, I didn't see that in the video. Just telling people how you do it isn't helpful at all. I see all different techniques but none teaching exactly how to be faster. Just how not to build a bad pallet.
How bout in the cold ass freezer my hands be too cold to do all that g
That's where I direct you to Discord to talk to hundreds who work in the freezer
