Stackable Freight: Definition and Examples

What is Stackable Freight?

Stackable freight is packaged or palletized freight that can safely be placed on top of another compatible unit without damage or instability.

Why it matters

Stackability affects how much floor space a shipment needs and can influence the vehicle plan. It should only be stated when the packaging and contents support it.

What to provide when requesting a quote

• Whether stacking is permitted
• Maximum stacking height or load
• Packaging condition
• Any do-not-stack instruction

Planning a shipment with DAGO Express
