Sendapallet is a web based carrier system for pallets, and accepts consignments of pallets up to 220cm in height and 1200 kg in weight.
Understanding standard UK pallet dimensions is essential for ensuring your goods are safe for transit and that you receive an accurate quote. At SendaPallet, we provide a versatile pallet courier service that accommodates various sizes. Our pricing is based on the floor space your pallet occupies and its total height.
We offer several size options to ensure you only pay for the space you need. When calculating your pallet shipping costs, you can choose from the following standard categories:
Please note that all measurements must include the pallet base itself. If your goods exceed these dimensions, they may be classified as oversized, which is common for specialized pallet transport of large machinery or automotive parts.
To maintain safety within the network, your goods must stay within the footprint of the pallet. Overhanging items are at a higher risk of damage and may incur surcharges. We recommend reviewing our pallet presentation guide to see how to properly secure and wrap your items within these size limits.
Whether you are using our pallet collection service from a business or a home, ensuring your pallet is accessible and correctly sized allows our drivers to use tail-lift equipment safely. If you are shipping to customers, providing accurate dimensions ensures our pallet delivery services remain efficient and on schedule.
If you are unsure which size category your shipment falls into, please contact our team for assistance before booking.
The standard 1200×1000mm pallet is the benchmark size used throughout the UK logistics industry. Its broad surface area and sturdy footprint make it suitable for anything from stacked cartons to machinery parts.
The Euro pallet is widely used throughout mainland Europe and is instantly recognisable by its slimmer width. Many UK businesses utilise this size when exporting or working with European supply chains.
Half pallets bridge the gap between a full-size pallet and very small platforms. They’re ideal for lighter loads or deliveries that simply don’t require a full square metre of floor space.
Quarter pallets are the smallest widely recognised pallet type. Though not suitable for heavy freight, they serve a valuable purpose in retail and promotional environments.
Industrial pallets offer more space than the standard UK size, providing a square surface that works especially well for heavy or awkwardly shaped goods. They are less common but extremely practical when needed.
Not every courier accepts industrial pallets, so it’s worth confirming limitations before arranging a collection.
