Does United States Pallets supply agriculture & produce pallets for export from Charleston?

Can United States Pallets handle agriculture & produce pallets for high-volume Charleston operations?

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

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.
