It depends on the context
Explanation:
1) If you are signing for the reception:
"Por favor, firme el recibo de esas paletas para mí"
2) If you are signing for the dispatch:
"Por favor, firme el despacho de esas paletas para mí (en mi nombre)"
En mi nombre means "in my name".
"Paleta" is only one of the possible translations for pallet.
More context would be useful.

Please! (again)


Explanation:
Jack:

If you need to communicate with somebody in his/her language you should take a language course. This site is meant to help translators to clear up some doubts not an online Spanish course.

Don't you think you are abusing the site?

I hope you'll understand. (?)

Thanks.
