Operational details for Florida

Compliance specification

Kiln-dried hardwood meets NWPCA Uniform Standard for Wood Pallets; moisture content verified <19% at dispatch, blade-cut deck boards, no visible bark.

Florida regulatory context

Plant City packing operations subject to USDA Marketing Order 905 require pallet markings traceable to the originating farm; we apply per-load barcode tags integrated with the Florida Tomato Committee compliance system.

Citrus packers operating in Florida's three citrus belts (Indian River, Polk County, Highlands County) require Florida-specific phytosanitary documentation; we coordinate with the Florida Citrus Mutual office for compliant freight.

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.

Restaurant supply distributors move pallets between regional warehouses and individual restaurants on small-truck (26-foot box truck) routes; we offer mini-pallet 24x24 and 32x32 builds for restaurant kitchen door access.

Pricing context

Volume pricing kicks in at 100 pallets, 500 pallets, and 2,000 pallets per month; sustained standing orders lock pricing for 12 months; spot orders subject to current lumber market pricing.
