If you’re shipping to an Amazon warehouse, your goods probably have to be delivered on pallets of a specific size. If your supplier uses any other pallets, your logistics provider will need to repalletize, which may incur additional fees.
How much palletization costs depends on the size and mode of your shipment.
We recommend shipping on pallets from the point of origin. Your supplier can load your goods on pallets at the factory. Just make sure they use wooden pallets and include a fumigation certificate. We recommend reaching out to a customs broker in your destination country for additional support.
If you ship unpalletized boxes, your provider can arrange for palletization at the destination port, but this will cost more.
Shipping wooden pallets via air incurs higher freight costs, so we recommend palletizing air shipments at the destination port.
Whichever option you choose, all of the providers on Freightos.com can work with you and your supplier to ensure your goods are palletized correctly.
