Palletised Freight System

Palletised delivery is when goods are stacked and secured on a pallet, making them easier to load, transport, and unload. This method helps protect freight, speeds up handling, and makes better use of truck space. 

The most common pallets used in freight include: 

• Wooden pallets – strong, durable, and widely used for general freight 

• Plastic pallets – lightweight, weather-resistant, and ideal for food or hygiene-sensitive goods 

• Metal pallets – heavy-duty, suited for industrial or specialised freight 

• Cardboard pallets – lightweight and recyclable, usually for lighter goods 

Most types of freight can be moved on pallets, from retail stock to bulk industrial supplies. However, some items may require special handling or can’t be palletised, such as oversized machinery, hazardous goods, or oddly shaped items.
