What's the minimum order quantity for Maple 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.

Does United States Pallets supply Maple Lumber for export from Charlottesville?
