First, conduct pre-deployment site survey to lay a solid foundation. Most municipal goods storage facilities store public supplies such as sanitation consumables, public event materials and small emergency reserves, whose material flows generally stay at low to medium duty level without frequent heavy-load long-distance transportation. Before putting electric pallet jacks into use, you can sort out the daily operation data of recent 3 to 6 months, count the average daily handling volume, main operating routes, aisle width and common goods weight range, to avoid redundant equipment input that does not match the actual demand.

Second, implement zonal targeted deployment to cut down invalid movement. You can divide the whole storage space into several independent small operation zones, including receiving zone, temporary storage zone, picking zone and delivery zone, and arrange no more than one electric pallet jack for each small zone. This arrangement can effectively reduce the long-distance empty driving of equipment, shorten the waiting time of front-line operators, and make the whole material turnover process more coherent.

Third, arrange dynamic scheduling mechanism to extend equipment service life. For municipal storage scenarios with obvious peak and valley operation periods, you can call all available electric pallet jacks to work during the morning receiving peak and evening delivery peak, and only keep 1 to 2 units on rotation for daily handling demands in flat periods. The idle equipment can be put into dedicated charging and daily inspection process, to reduce unnecessary wear and tear caused by long-time continuous operation.

Fourth, complete supporting training and management to guarantee stable operation. Organize regular basic operation training for all on-site operators, teach them correct operation postures and simple daily troubleshooting methods, so as to reduce the probability of misoperation. You can also make a simple daily check list, to record the running state of each equipment before and after use, and find hidden problems in time.

Such deployment ideas fit the actual demand of municipal goods storage facilities with low to medium duty material flows, will not bring excessive operation cost, and can effectively reduce the physical burden of operators and improve the overall operation efficiency of the storage space.
