# Delivering FCL to Amazon: Pallet Specifications

Flexport will work with you to deliver FCL shipments directly to FBA (Fulfillment by Amazon) centers.

Here are the specifications to follow if your FCL shipment will be **palletized**.

## Pallet Specifications

**General requirements and dimensions**

*Use standard or EUR-pallets for stuffing*   Use GMA Grade B or higher, 40" x 48" / 1 m x 1.25m 4-way access, wood pallets
*Any single pallet must not be taller than 72"*   Pallets can be double stacked for a max height of 100"

- Max weight per pallet: 1,500 lbs. / 680.4 kg

**Other considerations**

*GMA Grade A pallets are required for grocery items*   CHEP pallets meeting GMA Grade A and B industry standards are acceptable
*Do not ship items on PECO pallets, as these cannot be moved using a standard pallet jack*   Plastic pallets will be rejected by Amazon

**Securing the pallets**

*Carton boxes must not have more than 1" overhand on either side of the pallet*   Use load bars and tension to secure the pallets (recommended but not required):

**Pallet configuration**

- Pallet loading should use a "turned" configuration, as illustrated here:
