A unit load is a quantity of goods that are physically grouped together for handling and transportation as a single unit, typically using pallets, containers, or crates. Consolidating items into unit loads improves efficiency in warehousing and logistics by simplifying movement and storage. Unit loads support automated handling systems and reduce the risk of damage or loss during transit. Optimizing unit load size and configuration directly affects inventory handling costs and space utilization in warehouses and transportation vehicles.
