Benefits of Shipping on a Pallet
Consolidation
The decision to use a pallet as the preferred shipping method is primarily influenced by the quantity, size, and weight of the items being shipped. If multiple boxes are destined for the same location, consolidating them on a pallet is a logical choice. Not only does this ensure the simultaneous delivery of all items, but it also reduces the risk of damage during transit.
Safety of your shipment and & Secure Packing
Various unfortunate incidents, from items falling off trucks or shifting during transit causing damage, can befall shipments during the shipping process. Palletized shipping addresses these concerns by securing your items, both large & small for safe transport. For instance, a stack of boxes can be placed on a pallet, stretch wrapped, and banded to prevent unnecessary movement. Similarly, your expensive China can be safely boxed and placed on the pallet for secure shipping. Conversely, a sizable item like expensive medical equipment or fragile artwork can be securely crated and affixed to a pallet, ensuring efficient transport while minimizing the potential for damage.
Cost-Effective Shipping
More often than not, palletized shipping can prove to be a more cost-effective option than shipping multiple individual boxes to the same destination, especially if they are oversized large boxes which can be pretty expensive. Coupled with the space-saving advantages of palletized shipping, this approach can significantly reduce costs compared to conventional methods.
