Winn-Dixie had a warehouse policy of wrapping every pallet with plenty of plastic wrap. This didn't completely stop them from falling over, but usually the top of the pallet's contents would become partially dislodged, which was a minor annoyance at best. It usually took a team of two a half hour to offload about 30 pallets of grocery items off of a truck and load up bales of cardboard for recycling, and about 5 hours to break down the pallets and stock the store.

Part of Target's madness might be in the extremely different kinds of merchandise they're selling, but most of those products are small, and Winn-Dixie solved the problem by sending these products in plastic totes.
