Freight Class for Pallet Wrapper
To estimate your shipment, use the Pallet Wrapper Freight Class Calculator.
The Pallet Wrapper Freight Class Examples use the current 13-tier density scale, effective July 19, 2025, and range from Class 85 to 125.
These are density-based estimates.

Pallet Wrapper shipment comparison
Pallet Wrapper Freight Class by Shipment Format
Pallet Wrapper freight class can change with the machine frame, product path, guards, controls, attached conveyors, protective clearance, and non-stackability. Use the finished packaged dimensions and total weight rather than the equipment's unpackaged size.
| Pallet Wrapper shipment | Typical packaging | Density tendency | Stackability | Planning note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Turntable pallet wrapper | Reinforced pallet or skid with blocking, restraint, and weather protection | Medium to higher | Limited | Base, mast, and carriage secured to a reinforced skid; this example calculates to 12.86 lb/cu ft and Class 85. |
| Crated stretch wrapper | Framed crate with internal restraint and protection for controls and moving parts | Medium to lower | Possible with engineered crate | Wrapper mast and controls protected inside a tall crate; this example calculates to 9.29 lb/cu ft and Class 100. |
| Rotary-arm pallet wrapper | Elongated or oversized crate with structural bracing and protective clearance | Medium to lower | Usually non-stackable | Large frame and rotating arm using a broad non-stackable crate; this example calculates to 6.25 lb/cu ft and Class 125. |
| Machine with infeed, discharge, and controls | Main machine skid plus separately blocked conveyors, controls, guards, tooling, and change parts | Varies | Usually limited | Line components can increase the footprint and should be measured as shipped, not as installed. |
Pallet Wrapper shipping options
Choosing a Shipping Method for Pallet Wrapper
The appropriate service depends on finished dimensions, packaged weight, piece count, loading method, value, stackability, and whether specialized handling is required.
| Pallet Wrapper shipment | Common shipping option |
|---|---|
| Turntable pallet wrapper | Standard LTL with packaging and handling review |
| Crated stretch wrapper | Standard LTL with packaging and handling review |
| Rotary-arm pallet wrapper | LTL with handling review or volume service |
| Machine with infeed, discharge, and controls | LTL, volume, partial truckload, or dedicated service after piece-count and handling review |
Heavy, long, high-value, non-stackable, multi-piece, or rigging-dependent pallet wrapper shipments may need carrier review before booking.
Pallet Wrapper Packaging, Stackability, and Damage Risk
Pallet Wrapper Packaging
- Bolt the base or frame to a reinforced skid and brace tall masts, arches, heads, or rotary assemblies.
- Restrain conveyors, film carriages, filling heads, label applicators, guards, and other moving components.
- Protect controls, sensors, nozzles, rollers, wiring, and product-contact surfaces from impact and contamination.
Pallet Wrapper Stackability
- Treat tall masts, arches, open frames, and machines with attached conveyors as non-stackable.
- Use a framed crate with a load-bearing roof only when stacking has been specifically engineered.
- Keep access to lift points, fork pockets, and center-of-gravity markings unobstructed.
Pallet Wrapper Fragility and Liability
- Prevent frame twist and protect alignment-sensitive heads, rails, rollers, and product-handling components.
- Drain or secure approved fluids and package change parts, tooling, and controls separately within the shipment.
- Confirm declared value and coverage for integrated or production-critical packaging equipment.
Before Requesting a Pallet Wrapper Freight Quote
How to Measure a Packaged Pallet Wrapper Shipment
- Measure after the pallet wrapper is secured and all pallet, skid, crate, framing, guards, and protective materials are complete.
- Include runners, saddles, legs, controls, fittings, attachments, overhang, and every projecting packaged component.
- Measure to the longest, widest, and tallest finished point and use the total tendered shipment weight.
Pallet Wrapper Freight Quote Checklist
- Record the finished packaged length, width, height, and total weight.
- State whether the shipment is stackable and whether top loading is prohibited.
- Include photos showing packaging, securement, labels, lift points, and exposed risk areas when practical.
- List detached controls, guards, accessories, tooling, fittings, and other separate pieces.
- Confirm forklift, dock, crane, rigging, liftgate, or specialized loading requirements.
