Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to freight a pallet?

Freighting a pallet depends on pallet size, weight, freight class, distance, lane availability, and whether special handling is required. Standard 48x40 pallets are often more economical because carriers and warehouses are built around that footprint. Take 2 Direct helps customers reduce total supply costs by matching pallet type, packaging materials, and shipping supplies to their freight profile.
