The image show the pallet arrangement in the standard 20ft container. I wonder why the pallet is not design to be perfectly fit to the wide of container when aligning.

As a trucker, you don’t want the load to shift. You also don’t want damage to product. And finally, weight distribution, the more evenly the load can be spread out, both side to side and front to back, the better the ride and cornering. Less likelihood of a preventable accident with good weight distribution.
