FAQ - Covington ISPM-15 Heat Treated Pallets
How does United States Pallets compare to Kentucky-based local pallet suppliers?
Local Kentucky suppliers offer geographic proximity. United States Pallets offers nationwide sourcing depth, multi-grade inventory, sub-2-business-hour quote response, audit-ready documentation, and standing-order automation that local yards typically don't match. Orders start at 50 pallets, standing weekly programs begin at 500 pallets per week, and every load ships with a bill of lading, packing list, and grade certification, plus IPPC stamps on heat-treated stock.
What's the minimum order quantity for ISPM-15 Heat Treated Pallets?
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. Single-pallet orders are not available, so buyers who need fewer pallets usually start with recycled Grade B stock, the lowest-priced published tier. Quotes are requested through the intake form.
What credit terms does United States Pallets offer Covington customers?
Net-30 credit terms standard after the first 1-3 prepaid or COD loads while credit is being established. Submit a credit application with three trade references; approval typically processes within 48 hours. Volume accounts can negotiate net-45 or net-60. ACH transfer is the preferred way to pay invoices, wire transfer is accepted for large orders, and pallet buy-back proceeds can be paid by ACH or applied as credit against new pallet purchases.
Can Covington 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.
