Whether you're operating a single Maricopa County warehouse or a multi-site network across Arizona, the Wood Crates requirements are the same: consistent grade, on-time delivery, accurate count, and clean paperwork. United States Pallets built our Wood Crates program around exactly that profile of customer.
United States Pallets is the national-network alternative to local Arizona pallet suppliers for Maricopa County-area B2B buyers. Where regional vendors offer geographic proximity, USP offers nationwide sourcing depth, multi-grade always-in-stock inventory, sub-2-hour quote response, and the documentation discipline Wood Crates customers need at scale.
Custom-built wood crates for industrial shipping, export, and storage.
50 pallets per order minimum on buy-side. Sell-side (buyback) minimum is 250 pallets per single-size load. Volume tiers kick in automatically as cumulative monthly volume increases - 500+/week accounts qualify for standing-order programs with reserved delivery slots.
Yes. We deliver to every commercial address in Arizona, with same-day shipping standard in our Southeast/Mid-Atlantic core and scheduled weekly delivery elsewhere. Maricopa County-area accounts are typical - submit a quote with your dock location and we route accordingly.
Net-30 credit terms standard after the first 1-3 prepaid or COD loads while credit is being established. Submit a credit application with three trade references; approval typically processes within 48 hours. Volume accounts can negotiate net-45 or net-60.
Yes. Backhaul logistics are coordinated on outbound delivery routes - empty or non-spec pallets get picked up on the return leg of new pallet deliveries. Per-pallet freight cost on the backhaul approaches zero for accounts running both new-pallet purchase + buyback simultaneously.
Yes. We buy back used pallets from Maricopa County collectors, recyclers, and warehouses - 250-pallet minimum per load, single-size only (no mixed-size loads). Fast ACH payment, typically same-day or net-7 depending on volume. Pickup arranged on standard outbound delivery routes.

Block pallets (four-way entry) use nine 4-inch hardwood blocks with continuous-face top deck; ideal for ASRS (automated storage and retrieval) and AGV (automated guided vehicle) operations where stringer interruptions cause read-failures.
