Yes. We buy back used pallets from Florida 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.
Can United States Pallets handle FSMA pallets for high-volume Florida operations?
Yes. Standing-order programs for Florida operations running 500+ pallets/week lock in tiered pricing, reserve delivery slots, and run on autopilot in the background. Custom contract terms available for accounts running 2,000+/week.
Does United States Pallets ship FSMA pallets to all of Florida?
Yes. We deliver to every commercial address in Florida, with same-day shipping standard in our Southeast/Mid-Atlantic core and scheduled weekly delivery elsewhere. Florida-area accounts are typical - submit a quote with your dock location and we route accordingly.
