Delivery and logistics

Live-load operations bring the trailer to your dock for a 90-minute window; loader/unloader provided; suited to customers without dedicated dock space or with intermittent volume.

Customer use case

Cold storage facilities (Plant City corridor) use HDPE plastic pallets that wash down at 180F; suitable for USDA Grade A dairy plants and frozen-protein operations; we lease as well as sell.

Pricing context

Custom pallet pricing depends on lumber spec, build complexity, and quantity: small runs (50-200 units) typically $35-55 per unit; large runs (500+ units) drop to $22-32 per unit; quotes returned in <2 hours.

Sustainability

Lumber sourcing prioritizes regional Southeast US hardwood mills (FL, AL, GA, MS); reduces transport carbon vs Pacific Northwest stock; supports regional logging economies.
