In 2000, about 429 million new wood pallets and skids were manufactured in the United States. Used and/or repaired pallets added an additional 233 million to this total.
The number of skids that fit in a shipping container depends on the container size and the dimensions of the skids. A standard 20-foot container can typically hold about 10 to 11 standard pallets (skids), while a 40-foot container can accommodate around 20 to 22 pallets. It's essential to consider the dimensions of both the container and the skids, as well as weight restrictions, when calculating capacity.

The number of skids that can fit on a truckload depends on several factors, including the size of the skids and the dimensions of the truck. Typically, a standard 48-foot truck can accommodate around 26 standard 48"x40" pallets (skids) when loaded efficiently. However, this number can vary based on the height of the load and specific trucking regulations. Always consider the weight limit and dimensional constraints when loading.
