Frequently Asked Questions

What sizes do plastic pallets come in?

The standard is 48" x 40", matching the wood GMA footprint, at 20 to 55 lbs depending on whether it is nestable or rackable. The 48" x 48" square pallet (35 to 55 lbs) is used for drums and chemicals, and the 24" x 40" half pallet weighs 8 to 15 lbs.

How much weight can a plastic pallet hold?

Ratings vary by model, so use the manufacturer's figure for the pallet in the listing. ORBIS rates its 48x40 XpressPal Economy nestable pallet at 2,750 lbs dynamic and 15,000 lbs static, its XpressPal HD at 4,000 and 30,000 lbs, and its rackable Odyssey HD at 2,800 lbs edge-racked, 6,000 lbs dynamic and 30,000 lbs static.

What is the difference between nestable, stackable, and rackable?

Nestable pallets have legs that nest into each other when empty (ORBIS gives its XpressPal nestables a 2.2:1 to 2.4:1 nest ratio), which suits one-way and export shipping. Stackable pallets have a flat bottom deck for block stacking. Rackable pallets have steel or reinforced runners so they can span a pallet-rack beam at the model's racked rating; ORBIS rates its Odyssey HD at 2,800 lbs edge-racked.

Do plastic pallets need ISPM-15 heat treatment for export?

No. ISPM-15 applies to solid wood packaging only, so plastic pallets ship internationally without a stamp, which is the main reason exporters buy them.

How many plastic pallets fit on a truck?

About 520 per 53-foot dry van for a standard 48" x 40" pallet loaded like wood, and nestable designs fit up to 3 times more empties per truck because the stack height per pallet is so much lower.
