The Euro pallet (EPAL 1) is a standardised wooden pallet measuring 1,200 × 800 × 144 mm, weighing about 25 kg with a load capacity of 1,500 kg. It is the standard load carrier in European road freight.
Dimensions and data (per EPAL): 1,200 × 800 × 144 mm, approx. 25 kg, 1,500 kg load capacity, 11 boards, 9 blocks, 78 nails. When stacked on level ground, the bottom pallet may carry up to 5,500 kg.
How many fit in a truck? A standard semi-trailer (13.6 m) takes 33 Euro pallets. Each uses 0.4 loading metres.
Why it matters for costing: Part loads are often priced per pallet space or loading metre. With the total trip cost from Logist Calculator, the minimum price per pallet space is total cost ÷ 33.
