Where shipping friction creeps in as order volume grows

As ecommerce order volume grows, hidden shipping friction begins to slow operations. Learn where shipping problems emerge and how to address them before they limit scale.

Safely prepare your goods for pallet distribution

Stack your pallet so the weight is evenly distributed, an uneven load can become unstable and shift in transit.

Select and stack: Choose the right-size pallet, then stack your heaviest boxes on the bottom and lightest on top, with no overhang.


Secure: Strap the goods and use corner supports to hold the load in place.

Wrap: Shrink-wrap the whole pallet and contents several times over.
