What is good nesting?

Good nesting refers to the efficient use of space when organizing and packing items in containers, such as boxes or pallets. By fitting items tightly together and stacking them in a way that maximizes space, less space is wasted and more items can be transported or stored in a smaller area.

There are several benefits to good nesting, including:

  1. Reduced storage and transportation costs: When items take up less space, fewer containers are needed, which can reduce overall storage and transportation costs.

  2. Improved safety: By ensuring items are packed tightly and securely, the risk of damage during transportation or storage is reduced.

  3. Increased efficiency: Good nesting allows items to be easily organized and accessed, which can improve the efficiency of processes such as packing, loading, and unloading.

To achieve good nesting, it is important to carefully consider the size and shape of the items being packed, as well as the size and shape of the container. It is also helpful to use packing materials such as foam padding or bubble wrap to protect fragile items and prevent shifting during transportation.
