Detailed Answer

Amazon fulfillment centers and sortation facilities use GMA 48x40 inch wood pallets as the standard unit-load device. Amazon's vendor compliance documentation specifies pallet condition, no protruding fasteners, and structural soundness. Amazon also operates plastic pallets in select closed-loop applications. For Vendor Central and FBA shipments, Amazon publishes specific receiving guidelines on FBA pallet requirements (4-way entry preferred, max 50" tall load, max 1,500 lbs per pallet for standard SKUs).
