Consider the shipping dock space required for staging products to be loaded on trailers. You have 10 outbound docks, each with a 53-foot trailer waiting to be loaded. We can assume that the weight per trailer is not a problem as it will not exceed the maximum legal weight. We can load on each trailer 52 pallets, 48” x 40” they will be double stacked.

The night shift picked and staged each load in the exact configuration as it would be loaded on each trailer, so you need space for 260 pallets (52 x 10/2), and requires access aisles between storage and staging and between staging and loading, as well as aisles to manage the movement of the pallets
