Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about ordering new pallets.
How long does it take to manufacture new pallets?
Lead times depend on the partner manufacturer, the specification, and the order quantity. Standard sizes usually move faster than custom builds or very large orders. Tell us your timeline and we will look for a partner that can meet it.
What is the minimum order for new pallets?
Minimums vary by manufacturer. New pallet production is most economical on larger runs, and smaller quantities may carry a per-pallet premium. For smaller needs, consider quality used Grade A pallets.
Can you match existing pallets we use?
Yes. Send us detailed specifications or photos of your existing pallets, and a partner manufacturer can build new pallets to match. This keeps them compatible with your current systems and processes.
What wood species do you offer?
Southern Yellow Pine is the most common choice for most applications. Oak and mixed hardwoods are available for heavy-duty requirements, and softwood blends for lightweight applications. Specific species can be sourced on request.
Are new pallets automatically heat treated?
No, heat treatment is an optional service. If you need ISPM 15 compliant pallets for export, specify this when ordering. The pallets are then heat treated and stamped by an ISPM 15 certified treatment provider.
How are new pallets priced?
Pricing depends on size, wood type, construction style, features, quantity, and current lumber costs. Contact us for a detailed quote.
Can I get pallets with special features?
Yes. Partner manufacturers can build pallets with notched stringers, reinforced decks, specific fastener patterns, chamfered edges, custom markings, and other special features. Discuss your requirements with our team.
Do new pallets come with any warranty?
Warranty and replacement terms are set by the manufacturer that fills your order, and we confirm them with your quote. If pallets arrive that do not match the agreed specifications, contact us and we will work with the supplier to put it right.
