Abstract:
1. A system for maximizing the utilization of occupied space inside an enclosed freight trailer of known dimensions, the system comprising: a plurality of erosion control blankets, wherein each erosion control blanket of the plurality of erosion control blankets is rolled into a generally cylindrical shape and the rolled plurality of erosion control blankets are grouped into a plurality of bundles having a height of generally (x) and a width of generally (y); an enclosed freight trailer of known dimensions including an interior width, an interior height, and an interior length, wherein the interior width is generally an integer multiple of a number (3y) and the interior height is generally an integer multiple of a number (2x); and wherein, when the plurality of bundles, having the height of generally (x) and the width of generally (y), are placed within the enclosed freight trailer, having the interior width that is generally the integer multiple of a number (3y) and the interior height that is generally the integer multiple of a number (2x), such that the height of the plurality of bundles is substantially aligned with the interior height of the enclosed freight trailer and the width of the plurality of bundles is substantially aligned with the interior width of the enclosed freight trailer, an occupied space inside the enclosed freight trailer is maximized.
