📦 Packing Cartons
This guide also applies when you are not shipping a full pallet.
Your cartons will be repacked onto pallets by the logistics partner to ensure maximum shipping efficiency.
By using standard sizes and neat stacking, we can combine cartons from multiple manufacturers onto one pallet – allowing us to accurately calculate and reduce shipping costs.

Summary of All Information
1️⃣ When shipping without a full pallet (“Pallet quantity = 0”)
- Specify height as if stacked on a pallet (without pallet height).
- This height is needed to calculate the pallet share.
- Fewer large cartons are cheaper than many small ones.
2️⃣ Rule for optimal carton sizes
Choose pallet-optimised sizes to maximise space and minimise shipping costs.
