How to Choose the Right Size
Consider Your Product
Measure your product dimensions and calculate the optimal pallet footprint. Ensure products don't overhang, which can cause damage during transport.
Check Transportation
Standard truck trailers are 48" or 53" wide. Using 48x40" pallets allows for efficient loading with minimal wasted space.
Evaluate Storage
Measure your warehouse racks and aisles. Pallet size affects racking efficiency and forklift maneuverability.
Industry Standards
Follow your industry's standard sizes for compatibility with suppliers, customers, and distribution centers.
