When Shipping mixed loads of building products such as light fixtures, Tools, and bulk Hardware, clearly separate items by weight and fragility on each pallet. Place heavy, dense Building materials at the bottom, with lighter cartons of LED lights on top, and add corner boards, top sheets, and stretch wrap to stabilize the load. Label pallets with handling instructions like “Fragile lighting” or “Heavy tools” so carriers Can handle them appropriately.
For Lighting and lighting components, choose Double-wall cartons with internal dividers or foam inserts so glass and lenses Do not touch each other.

Mark cartons as “Fragile – Lighting” and avoid stacking them under heavy hardware on the same pallet.
