I deliver for 7up and im a sideload driver in the Bay Area. I dont build displays or merch the product. I just make the drop into their cooler and go. Im usually done with my route in 6-7 hours and still get paid my 8 hours.
@@s2_eleven551 AHAHAHA!!. Hell yea!!. Did 12 years with that company. I've done every route in that City. As for the parkig situation!? Only 2 things you can do. 1-hit your hazard lights, and 2-is to pop your brakes and double park.
Get a heavy pallet and that center mount over time for the lift mechanism wears away and causes it to lean from side to side. Also this is highly dependent on a decent warehouse crew...which doesnt exist
When I was a route driver with Pepsi we did side load and had split bays loaded the same way everyday, meaning product was loaded in the same spot on the trailer daily. It appears as though they loaded random and this guy was unsure of which bay to go to. Not saying that sideload is better just pointing out something I noticed as delivery driver. We have since switched to a system similar to this which is working well.
From watchin' this video glad I came to Coke after the first set-up way lol!! Thank God for Coolift. I'd say one of the greatest inventions for our delivery job.
Eagle beverage!!!!look!! We need this!!!Deliver beer in New York for eagle and these handcarts we use are Mgliners but ,Dmn this could save so much time!!!great idea Magline!
I use this system every day in Michigan. It's pretty cool. As a driver, I don't even care about the time savings per stop, but I love the reduced stress on my back. Not to mention that I don't have to climb up into sideload bays in the winter when the trailer and ground are icy. One drawback is that the big carts don't fit into stores or coolers with very tight spaces. When this is the case, I just put the bases as close to the front door or cooler door as I can then use my 2 wheel cart (also a Magliner, best dolly on the market) from there. Overall rating...A+
TheKawkawlin8 Yea we use both systems at Budweiser in Boston. The side loaders are good when your delivering to bars 30 to 50 cases. The lifts are great for the liquor stores when its 100 to 1000 cases. Much easier bringing the pallets in and breaking them down to where they go.
I work for a soda company and i personally dont believe the delivery team should be in charge of merchandising product. Sales team takes advantage of that.
yup exactly they know they’re not the ones that have to put it up so they don’t give a fuck how much they bring in for the person to fill , that’s the only thing i hate about the sales reps in this business most of them don’t have no consideration for the other workers like the merchandisers they just care about hitting their stupid ass numbers and their commission
I love using the coollift much better than a dolly there's times when the warehouse will grind the legs on the pallet because they're too lazy to pick them up and take them across the warehouse most of them were so grounded and it's almost impossible to get the coollift under them which makes your day go bad
Yeah everybody thinks the cool lift system is great, til they spill one in the parking lot lol. Give me palletized or a side bay, they can keep that cool lift.
this thing will hurt you if you are a small person. better to break down as soon as you can otherwise if the ground isn't flat, it'll take your entire body strength to push the damn thing into the store. and btw, no one ever neatly stacks them. 2 liters and 12oz 12pks are always mashed together, there's always something tips over or gets busted and leaks everywhere. i never had problems driving a side bay, now i have joint pains all over.
Things are always designed by people behind a desk who will never use it for a long time in the real world. They will only use it for a demo in a perfect environment where the buyer is not a driver but someone who also works at a desk and also will never use the product...
It doesn't work that smoothly especially when you can't park on level ground and pallets are loaded to high and heavy which their are loaded there. You need a lot of room in the store to bring those pallets in . Some customers will not allow you to bring the pallets in the store. Pallets constantly fall over.
Now if only warehouse employees actual built those cool lift pallets to where you could actually more them off the truck without them tipping over. And if only stores in Boston and surrounding areas were large enough to maneuver this machine safely without knocking something over or hitting Customers. I find it kind of ironic that I tend to finish my routes alot quicker on a side bay, or days when I have very little cool lifts on my trailer. Its a great concept but it doesn't work a everywhere.
In case you dont know, warehouse uses a system where the employee or picker dont know whats coming in other words you are picking like blind because the system tells you what to pick and it is not on the picker mind what is coming on the system it is like a headset that you have to follow
add a fu*&ed up parking lot (potholes, cracks, bumps etc) a ramp to get into the store. (also fu&^ed up) and a cooler you can barely walk into let alone take equipment in. Hand truck will win in these scenarios.
Not having too search every bay for what you need is reason enough alone... but then again the company i worked for didnt have any rhyme or reason for which bay held which product.
Well, you will have to sell the side load truck! Working for eagle, I found that it's much better just using the end load trucks as I have to use both. the coollift wouldn't last a day at the Mo lakes since there are hills everywhere. Most coolers don't have enough space to fit it, and the spacious coolers shown in this video DO NOT exist, trust me! let alone tight turns required to get in them inside of a cooler. I also want to see who will volunteer to push the weight of FOUR! dolly loads up an incline and stairs all day! You will end up using a dolly anyway, so why bother. The time they show this saving you ends up being marketing bullshit, although there are areas that it would be great to have it in I'm sure.
Depends on where, my location doesnt, only for family dollar and small CVS displays. Not like every location will be the same I've heard of some massive differences to what my facility is use to
This video is biased. They didn't take into consideration that both drivers have to do the same amount of stacking (Regardless of inside or out of the store). They also had the driver that wheeled every stack into the store, re-stack every case onto the display. A good driver would create stacks on the dolly with intent of dropping them directly onto the display. In conclusion again, this video is biased.
I'm a driver at Laredo tx and we definitely need this

I deliver beer in the north bay. Santa Ross.
@@s2_eleven551 I use to deliver beer in San Francisco. The beer business is no joke, especially when it comes to those damn kegs...

At matagrano inc I presume? Big outfit there.
I don’t know how the hell you guys park in that city. Especially on 19th ave or Marina.

That’s because you don’t have product. 7 up sucks who drinks that anyway
No overage on loading to make up for packing errors. Any system based around 0 errors in the supply chain will inevitably lead to customer shorting.

Oh, one more thing, that seat belt locking system is basically a waste of time. No one uses it in our facility.

i work at coke at Albany dc i love that cool system boy times have changed now i know why they don't use side loaders
For a fair comparison should one not also add the time that it took in the warehouse to put everything on a pallet for every customer specific?

Now if only they had this in the beer industry

To be more realistic they should have showed the driver rebuilding falling over skids just so they could put them on the lift gate.

My R D pallets never look like that after im done building them
Exactly, same thing in Nashville. I pick up multiple pallets because water is on the bottom
1:20 i hate that. People please I know you’re trying to help but all you do is get in the way and slow us down when you hold the door like that.
what about steps unevensufaces ramps more warehouse work lots of shrink wrap eiasier for one but it goes to more work for another

and what about stairs.......
The store would have to deal with it, deliverys are only to be placed on ground level so the store is responsible for carrying it up the stairs
Easier but the real reason of this study is, to jam the truck even more and add more stops to the route and cut the amount of drivers 😉
Been there
Lol. Since when do the Coke drivers actually fill the shelves! And build displays too?? That video is a fantasy world!

Bring that to Houston already
Good exercise for driver
That's why coke got rid of the cool lift?
This driver skipped leg day
Soon the robots will be delivering the product
