Solution • Back the trailer to the dock until it makes contact with the dock bumper. • Roll forward 1” to 3”. • This will create a gap between the trailer and the dock. • When the trailer is dropped, it will not be in contact with the dock to cause damage. • The gap between the trailer and dock is small enough not to cause any safety issues with the dock workers.
