What does Stackability mean in logistics?
Short answer
Whether and how high packages or pallets can be stacked on each other without damage. Non-stackable cargo uses floor space inefficiently and is often charged at a higher effective rate.
Indian PTL and air carriers may charge non-stackable cargo on the full height of the vehicle or container space it blocks. State stackability when requesting quotes. Ask our desk how this applies to your consignment.
