When moving mixed loads of building products such as lamps, Tools, and bulk Hardware, Separate items by weight and fragility on each pallet. Load heavy, dense Building materials at the bottom, with lighter cartons of light fixtures on top, and apply corner boards, top sheets, and stretch wrap to stabilize the load.
