To "handball" is a colloquial term used in parts of the country to describe the activity of manouvering bulky items such as furniture by hand without the assistance of hoists or trolleys.

Could you expand on CV requirements of (specialized handball team) . please ? Handball is under the umbrella of the GAA and I'm sure Liam O'Neill would be delighted to inform you as to which handball team has qualifications in unloading containers ! See, you don't need recruitment agencies .
 
Handballing is a perfectly normal word in the logistics industry.No need for smart answers.
 
I don't work in the logistics industry and have to say that I was completely mystified by the post last night. I thought he had some weird plan to use fit sports people to help him move stuff.
 
I must say that I would be very annoyed if someone invited me to a game of handball, and then said "See that truck. Unload it!"

My brother is Operations Manager for an importer with several large warehouses on John Rogersons Quay in Dublin. He would regularly (fortnightly or monthly) require unloading of containers in this fashion and calls a very reliable guy who assembles a team to do the job. This is not their full time occupation and sometime the group makeup is different but the guy is always there in charge and they have never let him down.

I can get his number if you want. Not sure if they have their own insurance or whether they come under the PL and EL insurance for the business they work for. I know my brother looked for a tax clearance cert from him at the start of the arrangement but no idea whether he charges VAT or gets paid through invoicing or what.

Vandriver, I know the word handball only with regard to sport. We learn something new every day, which is good. I wasn't trying to be smart, just humorous !
 
Sorry been away only back now, it would be to handball aka remove cases of eg chicken from container onto pallets as when container comes from china they do not use pallets as they need to ship as much of the product as possible to save on cost, there would be on average 2000 cases which would in turn be about 35 pallets.

Handball means no machine used just the bare hand
