Picking
Shipping - Packing
Dedicate plenty of space for the
loading and unloading area to
prevent bottlenecking.
If your warehouse has a picking
area, make sure it's in or next to
storage for easier access to
items.
Keep this area separated from
the rest of the warehouse for
better organization and traffic
flow.
Keep reception separate so that
efficient sorting and inspecting
can be done.
