Mixed warehouse inventory

48 × 40 in

A practical starting point for a mixed warehouse lot. Ask whether all pieces share this footprint; a stack of similar-looking pallets can contain several different widths.

Area = length × width. Inch dimensions are divided by 144 for square feet; centimetres by 10,000 for square metres. This is outside area, not supported deck area.

Before this size changes hands

  • Measure the actual length, width and height; say whether this size is uniform across the lot.
  • Record deck arrangement, entry openings and any visible damage.
  • Confirm ownership, permission, handling equipment and the receiving location’s requirements.
  • Ask a qualified packaging professional about the actual load and supports. A footprint cannot establish load capacity.
A request is an enquiry. This page does not represent current stock or promise that a pallet of this size will be free.
