Portland Crate Lumber Programs

Does United States Pallets buy back used pallets in Portland?

Yes. We buy back used pallets from Portland 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.

Can United States Pallets handle Crate Lumber for high-volume Portland operations?

Yes. Standing-order programs for Portland 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.

Can Portland 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.

What's the minimum order quantity for Crate Lumber?

50 pallets per order minimum on buy-side. Sell-side (buyback) minimum is 250 pallets per single-size load. Volume tiers kick in automatically as cumulative monthly volume increases - 500+/week accounts qualify for standing-order programs with reserved delivery slots.

Marine industry suppliers (Fort Lauderdale, Stuart, Miami) use exterior-rated pallets that resist saltwater corrosion; treated lumber stock available; preferred for boat-component freight to Bahamas and Caribbean.
