Determining the best shipping methods for your business requires a lot of careful consideration. Business owners are left asking themselves, “How much will this cost me?”and “How can I ensure every item will arrive safely?
These questions can be difficult to answer, especially when faced with items that are incredibly large, fragile, or come in multiple pieces. This is usually because many business owners are not able to properly package these items, due to lack of knowledge or materials, or their go-to method of shipping imposes size and weight limits. This is where container and palletized freight shipping comes into play. Palletized shipping is the best way for business owners to ship, allowing large, fragile items and multiple items alike to arrive at their destination quickly, safely, and in the most cost effective manner possible.
Shipping Pallets First off, when is a pallet absolutely necessary? As was stated above, the decision to use a pallet as your preferred shipping method is driven by the number of items being shipped, and their overall size and weight. If you have a large number of boxes being shipped to the same destination, it simply makes more sense to have them all delivered together. Not only will this ensure every item is delivered at once, but it will help lessen the chance of any of the items being damaged in the shipment.
From falling off the back of a truck to being crushed under the weight of another package, a number of unfortunate things can occur to your shipment throughout the shipping process. Shipping a pallet helps to eliminate these concerns through highly customized and secure packaging for small and large items alike. For example, a collection of boxes can be stacked on a pallet, shrink-wrapped, then banded to eliminate unnecessary movement. Conversely, a large item such as a piano can be packaged in a custom crate and secured to a pallet to ensure quick and efficient transport while eliminating the chance of human error.
Furthermore, palletized shipping is simply more cost effective. If you have multiple small boxes that need to be shipped together, it’s not uncommon for this to fall under the banner of less-than-truckload (LTL) freight shipping. LTL shipping is simply a shipping method wherein the freight being delivered does not completely fill a truck. These items are often shipped in tandem with others to multiple destinations, and when combined with the space-saving measures provided by palletized shipping, the cost to the shipper is greatly reduced than if shipping through conventional methods.
With over thirty years of experience shipping containers and palletized freight, Pak Mail offers a number of options to assist you with your palletized shipping needs. Not only will we pick up your item, we will even do on-site packaging so you can oversee the process and make sure your shipment receives the protection it deserves. Using a variety of methods including shrink-wrapping, banding, and even custom crating for large, fragile items, our freight shipping experts will ensure that every item is prepared and packaged securely so as to prevent unwanted and unnecessary damage.
Pak Mail provides a number of freight options for your shipment, so whether by land, sea, or air, you can rest assured knowing that your shipment is in good hands. Call or email us and speak with an expert. We will work with you to find the most cost-effective (and safest) ways to pack and ship items worldwide.

As packing and shipping specialists, Pak Mail team members will work to ensure your freight is properly packaged so as to minimize any accidental damage that may occur throughout the shipping process.

Once everything has been packed and your items are en route, you can track your freight shipment on the Pak Mail website so you know where it is every step of the way.
