Get a Price →Whether you're operating a single Thornton warehouse or a multi-site network across Colorado, the Apparel & Textiles pallet supply requirements are the same: consistent grade, on-time delivery, accurate count, and clean paperwork.

Unlike regional yards that quote in days, United States Pallets quotes in 2 business hours. Unlike national networks that minimum out at 1,000+ pallets per order, USP starts at 50. Unlike vendors that charge for documentation, USP includes BOL, IPPC, treatment certificates, and batch records on every load by default.
BOL, packing list, grade certifications standard. Heat-treated loads add IPPC stamps and ISPM-15 documentation. Pharma-grade loads add batch records. Food-grade loads add FSMA Sanitary Transportation Rule certifications. All documentation ships electronically before delivery.
