Ill agree @Sloth that the U-boats are not ideal for home decor and other freight. Thank goodness for a flat for the domestic repacks, some furniture and baby. The seasonal custom block is a flat and mini is a at times a two or three tiered U-boat. But back to the dreaded and tedious repacks, by...

@Sloth, Idk how big our unload area/receiving is . I know that back in the day we had nothing but a few flats and the rest pallets. Then came the food team, so back of the line had their U-boats. Now, have a tight fit of Uboats parked side by side on the front and then behind the line. And the...

The way my ETL has our custom blocks set, if we have a three tier U-boat, the aisle numbers are divided up. Like for toys, aisles 1-5, top shelf aisles 6-9 middle shelf; and that's how most of our u-boats are done. The worst is pets. But I guess at my store the emphasis is going towards accuracy...

I'll admit I have worked repacks in other areas besides toys. Yes they are tedious and take a while to push. My ETL was fine and still is with using a smart cart to put loose items in (i.e. whatever is out of a repack box). Those of us like myself on the truck do our best to open repacks and...

I'd imagine that your STL is waiting on something or someone. My STL knew for months and finally told our store in groups of the changes that Target rolled out (that started April 22nd). My STL personally came in one morning while we were unloading of how the repacks for h&b are to be done. Now...

Let me repeat myself: your h&B repacks will be on the same Uboat that your boxes are going to be on for whatever aisle you roll up and down. Hence eliminating the need for a separate Uboat for repacks.

Your repacks are to have been opened, scanned and sorted so that if you work in aisle whatever in HBA and pharmacy, then you roll the Uboat up and down the aisle. Again every store is different in how they approach this change and investment of time to modernize their stores. And I never said...

When the CEO of Target said hey let's make some changes to how we do things at Target to keep us relevant and ofc our doors open. I thought oh my what's to change?Well I have noticed A LOT of them! For starters: My store. I remember the formation of the food team for market and then style team...
