Can Flint customers run a buyback program alongside their pallet purchases?

Operational details for Michigan

Compliance specification

All pallets stamped IPPC HT for ISPM-15 export compliance to 180+ countries; documentation includes treatment temperature logs and the registered facility number.

Michigan regulatory context

Michigan Department of Transportation oversize-load permits restrict pallet shipments via I-94, I-96, and I-75; our MDOT-permitted carriers handle Detroit-area, Lansing-corridor, and Upper Peninsula routing.

Michigan tier-2 automotive suppliers in Holland, Battle Creek, and Saginaw use returnable-pallet pools with OEM customers; our buyback pricing supports cost-control for Magna, Lear, and Adient supply networks.

Pallet specification detail

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.

Lumber spec for new GMA stock: mixed hardwood (oak, maple, ash, hickory) with minimum 600 SG (specific gravity); kiln dried to <19% moisture; visible defects limited to wane on outer 1/3 of deck board only.

Delivery and logistics

Standing-order programs schedule a recurring weekly truckload (or partial) for the same delivery window; price-locked for 12 months; preferred for 3PL warehouse refill cycles.

Customer use case

Furniture manufacturers in High Point NC (and southeast suppliers shipping to FL) use custom oversized pallets for assembled freight; 60x40 and 72x48 builds available on 5-day production lead time.

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

Our Lakeland and Jacksonville recycling streams process 200,000+ pallets per year; broken stock is repaired or chipped for mulch (sold separately); zero-landfill goal targeted for 2027.
