There are two major types of pallets, "Europallet" and standard pallets. The size of the "Europallets" is 800mm x 1,200mm per piece while the size of standard pallets is 1,000mm x 1,200mm per piece.
A 20' container can hold eleven "Europallets" in one tier or nine to ten standard pallets in one tier
A 40' container can hold 23-24 "Europallets" in one tier or 20-21 standard pallets in one tier.
Wooden pallets must be strong enough to allow storage of three tiers when loaded.
Carton boxes must not overhang the edges of the pallets.
