Labor shortage
Warehouse labor shortage solutions that start this week.
The shifts you cannot keep staffed are the ones robots can take: case picking, palletizing, and trailer loading. Lumper covers them as robotic labor priced per pick, so capacity stops depending on who turns up. Start from the job that hurts most, or from the cost.

By the job
Start with the shift you cannot staff.
Each page covers one job end to end: what the robot does, what it handles, and what it costs per pick.
Off the rack
The cases come out of the racks and into a carton or a tote.
Automated picking
Autonomous case picking across your existing pick floor: mixed SKUs, cases up to 65 lb, 150 cases per hour, priced by the pick.
Read the page →02Case packing
Mixed-SKU cartons up to 65 lb, picked out of the racks you already have, priced per pick with nothing upfront.
Read the page →03Case picking for 3PLs
Picking cover for 3PLs: a throughput number that holds through turnover, call-outs and the shifts you cannot fill.
Read the page →04Case picking
Autonomous case picking dropped into the aisle you already run: no retrofit, no layout rebuild, live in hours.
Read the page →On and off the pallet
Inbound pallets broken down, outbound pallets built to survive the trip.
Mixed case pallets
Store-ready pallets built from mixed SKU cases, scaling with your peak volume instead of your temp roster.
Read the page →06Palletizing
Outbound mixed-SKU pallets built autonomously, plugged into the WMS you already run, live in hours with nothing upfront.
Read the page →07Depalletizing
Inbound pallets broken down as they arrive, mixed stacks read on the spot, with nothing to pre-sort.
Read the page →Onto the truck
The trailer loaded and unloaded, which nobody wants to do.
By the numbers
Start with the cost.
Automation is usually blocked by the capital case, not the technology, and temp labor is the cost you are trying to escape. This starts from the money.
- $0
- Upfront cost
- Per pick
- How you are billed
- 0
- Retrofit required
Put a robot on your floor this week.
Tell us the jobs you want covered and your case volumes, and we will come back with a per-pick price and what deployment looks like.
