Only 90% of the pallet footprint is covered by cartons. Changing carton dimensions slightly to tile the pallet better is one of the cheapest freight savings available — it costs a packaging redesign once and saves on every shipment.

Changing carton dimensions slightly so they tile the pallet properly is one of the cheapest freight savings available — it costs a packaging redesign once and saves on every shipment afterwards.

Frequently asked questions
How many cartons fit on a pallet?
Cartons per layer times layers. Cartons per layer depends on how the carton footprint tiles the pallet, and both orientations should be tested.
Why does carton size matter so much?
Because a carton that leaves a gap on every layer wastes that space on every pallet on every shipment. A small dimensional change can add a whole row per layer.
What is a standard pallet size?
48 by 40 inches in North America; 1200 by 1000 or 1200 by 800 millimetres in Europe. Designing cartons around the pallet you actually ship on matters more than round numbers.
How high can I stack?
Limited by the carrier, the product's crush strength and the warehouse's rack height. Common limits are 1.8 to 2.2 metres including the pallet.
