The person who drops off or picks up the cargo (our customer) loads and unloads the plane.
There are a couple of runs where we still have to move the freight to the door. This is primarily on the "glow flights" where it will only be few boxes (at about 50 lbs each.) The contract couriers take the boxes from the door to their trucks.

For UPS, FedEx and DHL the customer does provide the man power to unload the aircraft.
