But i used a single e- track down the middle. Storage on sides. E- track mounted on side of cargo area. For those non typical pallets.

That 73" is money in the bank when you learn how to work it.

If you don't have a center track, I'd say closer together can't hurt. In the neighborhood of 14 inches apart. A narrower set up accomodates the smaller bins without having to cross straps.

I cross my straps even on wider pallets and crates.

I think avoiding lift and separation might be good when it comes to freight. :)

Please don't remind me of that load. It was 2000 lbs of 50 lb bags of hulled sunflower seeds on one pallet. All it wanted to do was lift and separate and bulge from every space between the straps. I had two straps fore and aft, and two straps side to side, and the load still wanted to breach containment.
