And. of course, they will only deliver the bottom pallet of a stack


How high do you think they’ll be stacked within a train carriage?

more than one


The pallets I’ve seen on supermarket shop floors are stacked to about 6
feet high and wrapped in shrink wrap. I didn’t realise 769s had 12 foot
internal headroom...

from personal experience:

you wouldn't want to be moving around a 6 foot high stack with a hand
driven thingy

you need the item to be no higher than you can reasonably see over
the top

Tell that to Asda.Â* Our local one has been re-fitted with their extra
high shelves and I'm forever being asked to reach items from the top one.

That's a bit different from trying to push and steer a few hundredweight
of pallet around the store, isn't it?

As an aside, the 2.5 tonnes that (we have been told) these things can
move is never going to be likely in a manual loaded environment.Â* With a
20 kg personal lifting limit that's 100+ boxes per load.

Manually loading 100 boxes onto a single pallet repeatedly, just ain't
gonna happen


You are assuming they will be loaded manually.
