De-Stuffing Containers
Container De-stuffing is a process that removes cargo from a shipping container. This can be done directly at the port but is most often completed at a warehouse or distribution center where the product counts are verified and organized before heading to their next destination.
What is Container De-stuffing?
Warehouses such as KAIN Logistics will inspect and verify the cargo while notifying you of any discrepancies or damage. When done correctly, container de-stuffing is a crucial step in the logistics process by allowing for the efficient movement of goods.
