On multi-drop deliveries, the first pallet to be delivered should be the last pallet to be loaded on the lorry. Heavy pallets, being delivered to more than one site, should be alternatively loaded on both sides to keep the weight evenly placed across the lorry once some of the pallets have been off-loaded and delivered. This is done to prevent the lorry leaning with too many heavy pallets on one side when moving off to the next delivery.
In multi-stop loads, pallets should be loaded in reverse order of delivery, with the last stop's pallet loaded first and the first stop's pallet loaded last. This ensures easy access to the pallets as they are needed during the delivery route. Additionally, heavier and more stable pallets should be placed at the bottom, while lighter or more fragile items should be loaded on top to prevent damage. Proper labeling and organization can further streamline the unloading process.

The pallets should be staged so that the first stop goes on the truck last and the last stop goes on the truck first.

When loading pallets for a multi-stop delivery, the order should prioritize the sequence of stops, starting with the pallets designated for the first stop and working sequentially to the last. Additionally, ensure that pallets for the earlier stops are easily accessible and securely positioned, while those for later stops are loaded last and may be stacked or secured to prevent shifting. This approach minimizes unloading time and maintains efficiency during deliveries.
In Reverse order of the stops
22 chep standard pallets can be loaded into a 40ft container providing the stock does not overhang the pallets allowing them to be loaded flush together
