Hi,

Does anyone have any experience shipping a pallet that is roughly 48''W x 33''L?

Would Amazon accept it?

Hello @Seller_zrl6lIhGm1DSZ,

Thank you for your question about shipping a small pallet to an Amazon fulfillment center. This is a common concern for many sellers, especially those dealing with smaller inventory quantities. Here's some general guidance that might be helpful:

1. Standard Pallet Sizes:

  • Amazon typically prefers standard pallet sizes, which are usually 40" x 48".
  • However, they do accept non-standard sizes in many cases, as long as they meet certain criteria.

2. Amazon's Requirements:

  • The pallet should not exceed 72" in height (including the height of the pallet itself).
  • It must be able to be safely handled by a forklift.
  • The pallet should be in good condition and able to support the weight of your products.

3. Your Pallet Size:

  • Your pallet size of 48"W x 33"L is smaller than standard, but may be acceptable.
  • The key is ensuring its stable and can be safely handled.

4. Recommendations:

  • If possible, consider using a standard 40" x 48" pallet for easier handling.
  • If you must use the smaller size, ensure your products are securely stacked and wrapped.
  • Include clear labeling on all sides of the pallet.

5. Communication with Amazon:

6. Carrier Considerations:

  • Ensure your carrier is aware of the non-standard pallet size, as this may affect shipping costs or handling.

Remember, policies can change, so it's always best to check the most current guidelines in Seller Central or contact Seller Support for the most up-to-date information.

Has anyone in the community had experience shipping non-standard pallet sizes to Amazon? If so, what was your experience, and do you have any tips to share?
