Frequently Asked Questions

Why would I need 48x42 pallets instead of standard 48x40 in Brandon?
You'd choose 48x42 over standard 48x40 if: your products' footprint better fits the 42-inch depth (less overhang or wasted space), your racking or conveyor system is configured for 42-inch pallet depth, you're exporting to European markets and want closer compatibility with EUR pallet dimensions, or your beverage or chemical containers are optimized for 42-inch depth stacking. Contact us to discuss your specific application in Brandon.
Are 48x42 pallets compatible with standard warehouse racking in Brandon?

All major pallet rack brands - Ridg-U-Rak, Interlake, Mecalux, Unarco - accommodate 48x42 pallets in systems configured for 48-inch standard load depth.
Can I get 48x42 pallets heat treated for export from Brandon, Florida?
