Sound material handling solutions for over four decades.
Telescopic Conveyor Systems and Installation
Load and unload a trailer without a crew carrying cases in by hand.
Floor-loaded trailers get worked the hard way in most buildings: walk in, pick up, walk out, repeat. A telescopic belt conveyor extends into the trailer as it’s worked, so cartons ride out on a belt instead of on people — and the dock flow behind it keeps freight moving instead of piling on the floor.
Telescopic belt that extends to the nose of the trailer and retracts flush.
Less walking, less carrying, fewer dropped and thrown cartons.
Dock-to-system flow designed behind the boom, not left to carts.
Combined team member material handling experience.
Booms that extend into the trailer as it’s loaded or unloaded.
Trailers worked in less time with a smaller crew.

What Changes at the Dock
Loading and unloading are the two hardest labor hours in the building — and the most fixable.
Unloading floor-loaded trailers
Cartons transfer to the belt at the pile and ride out. The crew stays at the face of the freight instead of walking the trailer’s length all shift.
Loading outbound trailers
The boom carries product to the load face so trailers get stacked tight and fast — better cube, less carrying, less throwing.
Fluid vs. palletized freight
Telescopics own fluid, floor-loaded freight. Palletized trailers stay forklift work — most docks handle both, and the layout should too.
The flow behind the door
A fast boom feeding a dead-end buffer just moves the pile. Takeaway conveyor, scanning and sortation behind the dock finish the job.
Match the dock tool to the freight mix.
Telescopic, Flexible or Both.
High-volume doors that live on floor-loaded freight justify a telescopic boom. Doors that see occasional fluid loads often do fine with expandable flexible conveyor at a fraction of the cost. Conveyability supplies both and will put the capital where the carton counts actually are.
Receiving flow designed as one path.
The Dock Is the Front Door of the Whole System.
Unloading is step one of receiving. Scanning, sortation, staging and putaway decide whether freight keeps moving — so we design the dock conveyor and the system behind it together, matched to your doors, ceiling and building flow.

Loading & Unloading FAQs
Fit, freight mix, installation and payback.
What is a telescopic conveyor?
A belt conveyor whose boom extends into the trailer as it’s worked and retracts flush to the dock when it’s done — the crew transfers cartons at the freight face instead of carrying them.
Does it work for loading as well as unloading?
Yes. The same boom carries product to the load face for tight, fast outbound stacking.
What about palletized trailers?
Those stay forklift work. Telescopics pay off on fluid, floor-loaded freight — most docks plan for both.
Will it fit our existing dock doors?
Usually. Booms mount at the door with the takeaway conveyor designed around your dock plate, door height and building steel — that’s survey work we do up front.
How do we justify the cost?
Trailer turnaround time, crew size per door and injury exposure are the levers. Count the cartons that currently move by hand each week and the math gets clear quickly.
Can you connect the dock to our sortation system?
Yes — dock conveyor feeding scanning and sortation as one designed path is exactly the integration scope we carry.
