Use your head space.<\/strong><\/h4><p>Incorrectly packed boxes will often have head space (the gap between the item in the box and the lid of the box). These cavities create room for items to move inside which, when a pallet is moved quickly, can create internal movement and an overall unbalanced load. So too does head space create potential for collapse within the individual box and subsequent product damage. Ensuring as little of this space as possible is vital.<\/p><h4><strong>2. Keep the weight right and everything tight<\/strong><\/h4><p>To make certain the overall balance is correct it\u2019s important that mixed loads be evenly weighted across the pallet also. Then it\u2019s a matter of building the pallet up with as little space between items as possible and avoiding any overhang on the pallets if possible. Even the most uniform of loads should also be checked for gaps. Don\u2019t take anything for granted and keep everything tight.<\/p><h4><strong>3. Gravity is not your friend.<\/strong><\/h4><p>It seems like one of those obvious, common-sense considerations that heavy boxes go on the bottom of the pallet, and lighter ones on the top. This doesn\u2019t just stop the weightier products from crushing the flimsier boxes.

The interlocking approach to a pallet build can result in a <a href=\"https:\/\/universalpackaging.co.nz\/news\/pallet-stacking-patterns-matter\/\">less than ideal outcome.<\/a> That\u2019s because sometimes it means less goods per pallet (with higher shipping costs and carbon emissions), and it additional weight to individual boxes.<\/p><p>Column stacking ensures each box supports the weight of the box above it along the stronger edges and corners.
