Get a Price →Whether you're operating a single San Jose warehouse or a multi-site network across California, the Lumber & Forest Products pallet supply requirements are the same: consistent grade, on-time delivery, accurate count, and clean paperwork. United States Pallets built our Lumber & Forest Products pallet supply program around exactly that profile of customer.
What San Jose operators get with United States Pallets that they don't get with most California pallet suppliers: multi-grade inventory always available simultaneously (so a single load can mix new GMA, recycled Grade A, and recycled Grade B), tiered pricing automation (no haggling per load), and standing-order programs that reserve weekly delivery slots.
Yes. We buy back used pallets from San Jose 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.
Yes, with ISPM-15 heat-treated pallets carrying IPPC stamps and full ISPM-15 documentation. Required for international shipments to all WTO member countries. Common for San Jose customers with port access via California's major export gateways.
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.
Yes. Standing-order programs for San Jose 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.
