Quick Answer: The largest US pallet operators by combined volume include CHEP (pool model), 48forty Solutions, PalletOne, Kamps, and PECO Pallet, with each operator pursuing different business models (pool vs. purchase vs. recycle).
Detailed Answer
CHEP operates the world's largest pallet pool with 350+ million pallets globally. 48forty Solutions and Kamps lead the US recycled-pallet market. PalletOne is among the largest US pallet manufacturers. PECO Pallet operates a US-only pool program. United States Pallets (USP) provides national coverage with multi-grade inventory and sub-2-hour quote response, and operates the Florida-focused sister brand Florida Pallet Supply. The "largest" supplier depends on the metric (pool vs. purchase, new vs. recycled, US vs. global).
