Why Is The Tail Lift A Must-have?

The vast majority of supermarkets, restaurants, community stores, and small warehouses do not have standard platforms. Trucks can only park on the roadside or at the entrance of the alley, and then workers have to manually transfer the goods from the truck to the ground or from the ground into the truck. Without platforms, forklifts cannot be used; without elevators, everything depends on carrying the goods by hand. One by one, the goods are moved, and time is thus wasted. 


6The number of trips a truck can make in a day depends on the loading and unloading speed. Without a tailboard, it often takes 30 minutes or more to load and unload a full truck, and making two trips a day is already quite demanding. But with a tailboard installed, one person and one truck can complete the loading and unloading in 8-10 minutes, and making four or five trips a day is no problem. The efficiency of loading and unloading directly determines the turnover rate and profitability of the vehicle. 



Work-related injuries among porters are quite common in the logistics industry. Each such incident not only involves compensation and loss of working time, but also may lead to the loss of skilled workers and affect normal operations. However, a tailboard transforms manual loading and unloading into mechanical operations, significantly reducing the risk of work-related injuries. 



The greatest advantage of the tailboard is its "on-the-go" nature. Regardless of whether there is a platform or a forklift at the destination, the tailboard serves as a mobile loading and unloading platform. The driver simply needs to press the remote control, and the tailboard will smoothly descend to the ground. The forklift can then directly drive onto the tailboard, or a person can easily push it onto the tailboard using a trolley.

After installing the tailboard, the operation that originally required the cooperation of laborers can now be completed by the driver alone. For small goods, they are loaded onto the vehicle using a trolley; for large goods, they are pushed directly into the vehicle using a hydraulic pallet truck. With just one person and one remote control, the entire process is easily accomplished. The labor cost has dropped by more than 50%. 



The replacement of manual labor with mechanical operations has significantly reduced the risks of injuries such as back injuries and crush injuries. The working intensity of drivers has decreased, their sense of job satisfaction has increased, and the staff turnover rate has naturally dropped. 



As labor costs continue to rise, logistics companies have increasingly realized that tailboards are not "extra expenses", but rather "assets with extremely high return on investment". The price of a tailboard is usually equivalent to the salary of a porter for half a year to a year, and the service life of a tailboard can exceed ten years. More and more business owners have figured out this equation.
