You can make sure that your pallets don't get too heavy and awkward, and you can control the pallet load per truck and per entry point. Using these parameters, you can set the maximum pallet weight for Standard Mail on pallets: · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · · Max 3DG Pallet Weight Max 5DG Pallet Weight Max 5DG/Scheme Pallet Weight Max ADC Pallet Weight Max ASF Pallet Weight Max BMC Pallet Weight Max Mixed ADC Pallet Weight Max Mixed BMC Pallet Weight Max SCF Pallet Weight Max Wt 3DG Pallet Max Wt 5DG Pallet Max Wt AADC Pallet Max Wt ADC Pallet Max Wt ASF Pallet Max Wt BMC Pallet Max Wt MBMC Pallet Max Wt OMX Pallet Max Wt SCF Pallet Also see Max Default Pallet Wt and Max Pallet Mail Wt parameter. Max Container Volume parameter If you're mailing letters, see Max Tray Volume parameter. If you're mailing flats, see Max Sack parameters. If you're mailing CMM pieces, see Max Sack/Tray Volume parameter. Presort Job-File Reference 125 2 Job-file blocks and parameters Presort Scheme blocks Max Default Pallet Wt and Max Pallet Mail Wt parameter Set the default weight for pallets. If the software encounters a blank pallet maximum weight for a particular pallet type, it uses this default setting. The maximum default pallet weight must be greater than or equal to twice the Min Default Pallet Wt parameter. Set this parameter to the weight of the mail pieces only; do not include the weight of the pallet itself. The USPS allows you to form pallets that weigh up to 2, 200 pounds, including the weight of the pallet, so it is recommended that you never set this parameter higher than 2, 100 pounds. Max Default Tray Feet parameter Use this parameter to set the maximum number of feet that the software should use to form pallets. If the software encounters a blank maximum tray feet for a particular pallet type, it uses this default setting. Follow these guidelines: · · · · The maximum setting must be greater than or equal to twice the Min Default Tray Feet parameter. Each pallet's minimum setting can be as few as 36 linear feet (three tiers). A pallet must be formed when there are at least 72 linear feet (six tiers). No more than 144 linear feet (12 tiers) can be on a pallet. Max Flat Tray Height parameter Specify how high, in inches, to stack flats in flat trays (tubs). The maximum height should be no more than 11. 25 inches (the height of the tray). Otherwise, you will not be able to place the lid on the tray. 126 Presort Job-File Reference Job-file blocks and parameters Presort Scheme blocks 2 Max Package Wt parameters Use the following parameters to set your package weights. Max NFM Package Wt Specify the maximum weight for each package. Set the weight large enough to minimize the number of packages you need to make, but small enough to stay within the limitations of your binding equipment. Max Pallet Package Wt You can use this parameter or the Max Package Thickness parameter, or both, to set the maximum package size. The software forms a package when it reaches one limit or the other. The USPS sets the minimum package weight at 10 pounds. Choose a maximum package weight between 10 and 20 pounds. Package weights above 20 pounds are allowed only in certain Package Services mailings. You'll want to set the package size large enough to minimize the number of packages you need to make, but small enough to stay within the limitations of your binding equipment.
