Amazon requires that most shipments be delivered to their warehouses on specifically sized pallets. If your supplier palletizes your goods on different pallets than those specified, your logistics provider will need to repalletize, which may incur additional fees.\n
When your goods are palletized depends on the size and mode of your shipment. It will also determine if you have to pay for palletization.\n
All providers on Alibaba.com Freight can work with you and your supplier to make sure your goods are palletized correctly, but it’s worth knowing the different options:\n
\nOcean Freight\n
We recommend that you ship 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.\n
\nIf you ship unpalletized boxes, your provider can arrange for palletization at the destination port before your goods are shipped to Amazon. Just note that this will cost more.\n
\nAir Freight\n
You can ship wooden pallets via air, but they will incur higher freight costs, so we recommend palletizing air shipments only once they reach the port of destination.\n
