What is Container Destuffing?

Container stuffing and destuffing is simply-the loading and unloading of goods or products into and out of containers for shipping. Sometimes container stuffing and destuffing refers to the loading and unloading of containers to or from one mode of transport to another, such as from ship to rail or truck to ship.

How long does it take to destuff a container?

If a warehouse has forklifts available, experienced staff can unload palletized cargo in less than an hour on average. However, loose cargo of varying shapes and sizes can take four hours for a typical 800-unit container, and nonstandard cargo can consume an entire day.
