HOW MANY PALLETS FIT INTO A CONTAINER?

Pallets consist of one of the basic equipment used for handling, transport, distribution, and storage of goods. Globally, a wide range of different types of pallets are used. Standardization variations from one country to another reduce efficient use. For instance, export goods may be required to repacked with pallets compatible with the handling equipment used in the country of destination. For this reason, International Standards Organization (ISO) has adopted standard dimensions for container pallets. On the other hand, there are certain cases in which various other pallet dimensions are also applicable. The most commonly used pallet types are called Euro Pallets and Standard Pallets. Their dimensions are as follows:

Euro-pallet dimensions: Width (W): 800 mm x Length (L): 1200 mm

Standard pallet dimensions: Width (W): 1000 mm x Length (L): 1200 mm

20-Foot container dimensions: Length (L): 5900 mm x Width (W): 2350 mm x Height (H): 2390

40-foot container dimensions: Length (L): 12000 mm x Width (W): 2350 mm x Height (H): 2390

The container dimensions listed above are approximate values and therefore, please note that container dimensions may vary based on container manufacturer.

Considering the 20-foot and 40-foot container dimensions, layout without stowage may be planned as follows. More pallets may also be loaded by stowage (for stackable goods) provided that the height, strength, and type of goods allow for such stowage. In such cases where cardboard boxes are placed on pallets, special attention must be paid to avoid any protrusion out of the pallets. In addition, carrying capacity (i.e., payload) of the containers must be taken into consideration during planning. Stowage of containers should be carried out by taking all necessary measures as required for the goods to be delivered to the consignee in good condition free from any defects.

11 Euro pallets or 9 to 10 standard pallets may be loaded in a single row in a 20-foot container.

23 to 24 Euro pallets or 20 to 21 standard pallets may be loaded in a single row in a 40-foot container.
