Week Two

February 2012

Bedding Handling• Bedding is never to be dragged, it should be hand carried.• Inspect bedding packaging to ensure it is not torn or worn to

the point that it does not adequately protect the merchandise.

• Ensure bedding is stood on end where the packaging has the thickest gauge plastic “booting” which is typically colored blue or green.

• Load bedding to ensure it is stable during transportation – use dunnage or tie bedding in place with twine. Place a corrugated “damage barrier” between bedding and the trailer door or sides if bedding contacts the trailer sides / door.

• Bedding items larger than twin size requires a team of 2 to properly handle.

Handling Mattresses

•Ensure bedding is stood on end where the packaging has the thickest gauge plastic “booting” which is typically colored blue or green.

ROR Bedding

• If a delivery team is picking up ROR bedding, the team must:• Obtain the appropriately sized bedding bag(s) provided by the MDO,

• Place the bag(s) on the delivery truck

• Re-package the bedding within the customer’s home.

Bedding Concern

• Customers sometimes order ½ of a split box queen or king foundation not realizing that a quantity of 2 is required.

• If this is discovered during loadout, let your manager know and they can determine what steps to take next.

• Contacting the customer may be required to verify if they wanted 1 or 2 parts of the 2 part box set.
