Block Pallets for Sale

A standard block pallet contains nine blocks arranged in three rows of three. These blocks are positioned at the four corners, the four mid-side points, and the center of the pallet. This nine-block layout is the industry standard and supports full four-way entry for forklifts, pallet jacks, and other material handling equipment.

The primary difference is structural. Block pallets use cylindrical or square blocks at nine points for support, enabling four-way forklift entry and greater load capacity. Standard stringer pallets use three parallel boards (stringers) and typically only allow two-way forklift entry. Block pallets are generally more durable and preferred for heavy industrial, food and beverage, and distribution applications.

The most common block pallet size is 48" x 40", which is the GMA (Grocery Manufacturers Association) standard widely used across North American industries. However, block pallets are available in a range of custom sizes to meet specific shipping, storage, or regulatory requirements. Skid Management Services offers custom design options to match your exact dimensional needs.
