Excerpt from Comparative Methods of Handling Produce From Warehouse Slots to Holding Areas of Retail Stores The study of alternative systems of handling produce from warehouse selection-of storage in the retail store showed that the pallet system was the least expensive, costing per cases delivered, compared with for mobile cart shipment and when produce is hand stacked in the trailer. The study also showed that the availability of back haul revenue (using the fleet equipment to transport freight on the return trip to the warehouse) further reduced the cost of pallet and hand-stack shipment in the cooperating firms. The total cost per cases, with backhaul, was for pallets and for hand-stack delivery. There was no backhaul for cart shipments because the rigid carts (full and empty) used all available space in the trailer. Collapsible carts will free 75 percent of trailer space f or backhaul freight, but the potential revenue should be adjusted for the added cost of the cart and the labor need-cd to erect and to collapse the cart. Warehouse labor for selection was per cases less for the pallet system than for the cart system. This was due to the greater capacity of the pal-let and the less time required to select the case and to position it on the pallet.
