When moving mixed loads of building products such as Lighting, power 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 tools on top, and apply corner boards, top sheets, and stretch wrap to stabilize the load. Label pallets with handling instructions like “Fragile lighting” or “Heavy tools” so carriers will handle them appropriately.

For export, evaluate container liners or dehumidifier units for high-humidity routes.
