Lumper Services help get the right people to unload, Load and transload your containers.
Finding a lumper service usually begins with a Google search for “lumper services near me”. After that search you may have found yourself here at Lumper HQ.
There are 3 types of lumper services:
1. in house either done by the warehouse employees.
2. done by the trucker him/her self.
3. hire a staffing agency worker
4. outsourced to a lumper company
Many warehouses dicide to do the unloading and loading of containers in house by using there own hourly employees. This leads to many problems like:
In the past truckers would unload there own containers if the warehouse did not do it for them. Now a days due to work standards and regulations truckers rarely unload their own freight.
Another option is to hire a staffing agency worker to help unload containers. The problem with this option is that most staff/temp agency workers will take longer then the in house workers and will likely cost more in the long run, due to lack of training and expertise in the job.
The fourth and best choice of a Lumper Service is to hire a an outside company. Unlike staffing agencies Lumper companies will send experienced workers that are specialized in unload, loading and transloading freight. Lumper company workers require no training, no supervision and are un matched in speed by any other option of lumping.
