Parcels on Pallets
To facilitate unloading, mailers should implement the following pallet
guidelines:
The heaviest parcels should be on the bottom of the pallet and the
lightest parcels on the top.
Parcels weighing 35 pounds or more should not be stacked above 60
inches (including pallet height).
Parcels on pallets must be secure, stable, and able to maintain unit
integrity during normal transit and unloading.
