Abstract: A method of producing air cushions with an air cushion machine for cushioning at least one item to be shipped in a box comprises the steps of determining a void volume defined by a difference between a volume of the box and a volume of the at least one item to be shipped in the box, and producing a quantity of air cushions with the air cushion machine having a total air cushion volume, the total air cushion volume being equal to the void volume.

Abstract: Apparatus for handling loosefill and conveying the loosefill from one location to another comprises a container having a bottom and sides, the container being adapted to receive and contain therein a quantify of loosefill, a blower positioned at one end of the container, and conduit which channels air from the blower toward the other end of the container and which redirects the air back toward the one end of the container to thereby convey therewith the loosefill. A vacuum is positioned at the one end of the container which draws the loosefill out of the container. The container may be a trailer of a tractor trailer. A method of conveying loosefill from one location to another comprises providing a container of loosefill, providing an air source at one end of the container, directing air from the air source toward the other end of the container, and redirecting the air back towards the one end of the container to thereby convey therewith the loosefill to the one end of the container.
