Huge increase in parcels and cartons shipped due to demand over the past year has led carriers worldwide to realize that they are often exceeding their space constraints first before exceeding weight constraints. As if that weren’t challenging enough, it’s also getting costlier to buy or rent warehouse space. For many parcel and warehouse companies, the only solution is to maximize their current space.
Automated pallet and parcel dimensioning is critical to the efficient space optimization. Manual measurements are time-consuming, inaccurate, and subject to human error. Additionally, a lack of automated dimensioning also forces many shippers to use fewer packing-box options, resulting in increased shipping costs due to wasted space in shipping boxes. With the demand for shipping parcels at an all-time high with no signs of slowing down, that puts shippers at a serious competitive disadvantage.
