I am the inventory manager at my job and I receive and ship pallets loads often. The best shipments we receive are bundled with a bundler or bailer (plastic straps) and straps attached to the pallet. I don't expect you will be doing that. The shipments we receive that are shrink-wrapped almost always received in great condition with the exception of poorly stacked boxes or heavier boxes stacked on top. The next has been boxes wrapped with lots of packing tape, around and around. Probably the cheapest way. I've never received one tied with ropes like matadors' so I have no comment on that. Sounds like it worked though.
When I ship a pallet load, I ALWAYS ship shrink-wrapped. I've never had a problem with the shipment. I make sure it's absolutely secure, I don't want the business I work for to lose money. I assume you don't want to lose money. It's also called cellophane wrap.
