The receiving bay therefore needs to be bigger than the area of pallets. You decide to make two rows of 13 pallets each. A forklift is used to move pallets and it requires a width of 2,85m to operate in. Each pallet is 1.25m long and 1.25m wide. What size would the receiving bay area be for two pf palltes and space between rows?
