Our Quick Guide to the Best Roll Pallets

Four Sided Boltable Automotive Roll Pallet Open

When transporting goods securely and safely from A to B in the workplace, be that in a bustling retail stockroom juggling peak periods and deliveries, or a large-scale warehouse in need of quality storage and tidy organisation, a roll pallet is a vital resource. 

They come in a variety of designs and sizes, and are made from robust steel to protect all goods from damage during transit. Roll pallets are engineered for ease of use both when full and empty, with foldable edges for seamless storage in a number of industries.

The Best Roll Pallets We Offer

Roll pallets are brilliant at transporting bulky items quickly and efficiently. You can utilise them in almost any industry, but they are most commonly used in retail, warehouses, transport, and garden centres. If you are looking for the best fit for your industry, we recommend considering:

  • Nestable Roll Pallets: Foldable and designed with an A-frame which allows for multiple roll pallets to be β€˜nested’ into each other, making for streamlined storage.
  • Jumbo Roll Pallets: Perfect for transporting much bulkier items, or a multitude of items in one go, whilst maintaining security and compact storage options when not in use.
  • Demountable Roll Pallets: With options ranging from two to four-sided, along with mesh sides, rod infills and lids. Perfect for keeping noise to a minimum when pushed.

We also stock similar caged storage units with the same high-strength protection and storage capabilities, but some unique implementations. Some of our top picks include:

  • Merchandise Picking Trolleys: Often found in retail back-of-house, our merchandise picking trolleys are easily manoeuvrable and come with braked swivel castors. 
  • Hypacages: Designed to stand alone, providing stable and secure storage options with half-drop gates for ease of access. Perfect for storing loose or awkwardly-sized objects.
  • Pallet Retention Units: Made with pallet bases for seamless transport with a forklift in and around a warehouse environment, along with a robust wire mesh outer. 

How to Choose the Best Roll Pallets

Roll pallets are one of the most efficient ways to transport goods within the workplace, but in order for your chosen model to precisely meet your needs, there are a few crucial elements to consider. Before making your decision, think about:

Purpose

First and foremost, how do you intend on using your roll pallet? How large or heavy are the goods you are transporting? The dimensions and load capacity of roll pallets vary between designs, so you need to consider these specifications before you can find the best one for you.

Material

Most roll pallets are made from steel, but some can include plastic or wooden elements. Metal roll pallets are the most versatile and hardwearing, so will last the longest in most environments. We specialise in steel roll pallets only, for their robustness and their lesser environmental impact. 

When sourcing and buying new supplies for your workplace, it is good to avoid plastic where possible, and our steel roll pallets are a much better and healthier alternative all-round.

Design

Roll pallets come in a number of different designs and with a wide variety of additional features. The lockability of wheels, number of sides, nestable A-frames, and hinged openings are all examples of how designs can vary.

Once you have decided on how you intend to use your roll pallet, and where it will likely be stored, you can settle on the best design to suit your workflow.

Portability

Speaking of additional features, the manoeuvrability of your roll pallet will depend entirely on which wheels you opt for. The two most common types are fixed and swivel, and both have their uses. Fixed wheels are best for moving much heavier loads, and will remain stable and without drifting. Swivelling wheels offer a wider range of motion which can be beneficial in busy environments or over sloped terrain.

Price

Your budget will, of course, factor into your decision. But this should be the last thing you consider, as the above factors dictate the efficiency of the roll pallet as well as its safe use. Once you have gathered a few contenders, you can compare them against your budget.

At Storage N Stuff, we offer a low price promise, meaning if you find the best roll pallet elsewhere for less, we will match it.
