* Place the pallet on the floor in an open area. Stack weighty items and flat objects onto the pallet at the start. Arranging heavy and flat items on the pallet first ensures a stable stacking base. Build a balanced stack and distribute weight evenly over the surface of the pallet.

* Loop shrink wrap around the entire stack of objects on the pallet. Shrink wrapping keeps items in place and prevents them from falling off the pallet when being moved

* Insert forklift forks underneath the pallet. Note whether you possess a two-way or a four-way pallet. Two-way pallets enable you to insert forks in on only two out of four ends. A four-way pallet allows you to insert forks on any side or end of the pallet. Lift forks and transport the pallet to its next destination.
