How to secure and prepare your skid
Banding and wrapping
To keep your goods stable during transit, they should be properly secured with adequate banding and wrapping to protect them from movement and weather exposure. Make sure nothing extends beyond the edges of the pallet.
If your shipment is high value, please refer to our insurance policy for coverage details.
Also keep in mind…
Our standard pallet weight limit is 1,000 lbs. Pallets must also meet the specified size and dimension guidelines as shown, and these requirements must be followed.
The Skid
Your goods need to be securely fixed to a pallet to ensure safe handling throughout our network.
