enough to accommodate the shipment without overhang. Anything overhanging the
pallet edges are going to be subjected to impacts which will end in punctures,
abrasions, and compression damage.
• Quality: you would like a sturdy,
durable pallet without protruding nails or broken boards.
Stack
boxes on wooden pallets correctly
• If you're using boxes, crates or
another sort of shipping container, make certain they're strong enough to face
up to stacking
• Make sure all containers are securely
closed
• Protect your product by placing the proper amount of dunnage within the containers, in order that no space is left
between product and container.

columns, edge to edge, for the best stacking strength” and “Do not align
corners over the spaces between wooden pallet
deck boards.
• Don't triangular base boxes; keep the
highest layer flat to stop the damage from top loads.”
• “Avoid interlocking or rotating layer
patterns
• Use slip sheets: Use an error sheet
under the load and each third layer when possible to assist distribute the load
evenly and protect the rock bottom layer.
Make sure your shipment is secured to
the wooden
pallet
• Use strapping or banding to secure
your shipment to the wooden pallet and stretch wrap to stop pieces from getting
lost or separated from the load.
