Operational details for Florida

Compliance specification

Heat-treatment chamber maintained at 56C core for 30 minutes per ISPM-15 Annex 1; each load shipped with a treatment certificate signed by a USDA-registered inspector.

Florida regulatory context

Florida Department of Agriculture inspects pallet treatment facilities under the federal cooperative inspection agreement; our Tampa and Jacksonville locations are stamp-authorized facilities.

Hurricane preparedness regulations in Miami-Dade and Broward counties require commercial pallet inventory to be either secured (banded + tarped) or relocated above 12 feet by June 1 storm-season opening; our staging team manages compliance for recurring customers.

Pallet specification detail

48x40 GMA load capacity is 2,800 lb racked (face-loaded), 4,600 lb static, and 2,500 lb dynamic per ASME MH1 2016; deck board span 3.5 inches; deflection under rated load <0.5 inch.

Deck board edge type defaults to chamfered for forklift safety; square-edge available on request for ASRS compatibility; rounded-edge banding tracks available for high-throughput line-side delivery.
