Question:

pallet expander?

do pallet expanders hurt? I'm getting one soon. I heard it really hurts. But if you have one or if you know, please tell.

Answer:

If they are normal size pallets 40x48 you can put around 20 pallets. depending on how they are loaded. When I pull a 48' trailer I have them sideways and it usually runs from nose to tail. Hope that answers you question. But if your asking how many pallets can you haul in a trailer (stacked on top of each other from nose to tail I have no idea) but as far as pallets holding product its about 20
24 40x48 pallets
A standard pallet is 40 x 48.
Do you mean how many can it carry? It'll change based on the actual trailer and the pallets in question, won't it? Do the simple math. Measure the length and width of the available trailer deck space, and subtract the deck height from the maximum allowable height (usually 13'-6) to get a load height. Then measure the dimensions of your pallet. You can then easily figure out how many pallets of that size will fit on the deck and how high you can stack them...
