Preparing Your Pallet for Shipping: Tips from Expediship

Proper preparation is essential to ensure your pallet shipment arrives safely and securely. Here are some key tips to prepare your pallet:

1. Choose the Right Pallet

• Size and Weight: Choose a pallet that’s sturdy enough to support the weight of your shipment. Standard pallets are 48” x 40” and hold up to 2,500 pounds, but we can accommodate other sizes as needed.
• Durable Material: Wooden pallets are a common choice due to their durability, but plastic pallets are also a good option for shipments that require added hygiene or moisture resistance.

2. Stack Items Carefully

• Weight Distribution: Place heavier items at the bottom of the pallet to create a stable base and prevent tipping.
• Use Boxes of Uniform Size: If possible, use boxes of similar size and shape. This helps create a stable stack and reduces the risk of items shifting.
• Avoid Overhanging Items: Make sure all items fit within the edges of the pallet to avoid damage.

3. Secure Your Shipment

• Use Stretch Wrap: Wrap the entire pallet with stretch wrap to secure all boxes in place. Make sure the wrap extends from the base of the pallet to the top.
• Add Corner Protection: Use corner protectors to prevent crushing or bending during transit.
• Use Straps or Bands: Add strapping or banding around the pallet to ensure items remain tightly packed.

4. Label Clearly

• Include Full Address Information: Write both sender and recipient addresses clearly on the label.
• Mark Fragile Items: If any items are delicate, clearly label the pallet as “Fragile” to ensure careful handling.
