Operational details for Missouri
Compliance specification
FSMA Section 204 traceability supported on every food-grade load; pallet ID linked to the lumber lot, kiln batch, and dispatch ticket in our chain-of-custody database.
Missouri regional shipping and logistics
Standing-order programs schedule a recurring weekly truckload (or partial) for the same delivery window; price-locked for 12 months; preferred for 3PL warehouse refill cycles.
Flatbed delivery handles oversized loads or pallets with overhanging product; tarping included; preferred for export crates and bulk lumber shipments.
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.
Lumber spec for new GMA stock: mixed hardwood (oak, maple, ash, hickory) with minimum 600 SG (specific gravity); kiln dried to <19% moisture; visible defects limited to wane on outer 1/3 of deck board only.
Delivery and logistics
Same-day delivery available within 75 miles of our Tampa, Orlando, Jacksonville, Miami, and Lakeland yards; minimum 24 pallets; small-order pricing applies on freight.
Customer use case
E-commerce fulfillment centers around Orlando and Lakeland use mixed-SKU GMA pallets for inbound, plus pallets-with-cardboard for outbound to last-mile carriers; we coordinate delivery with their dock-scheduling system (FreightSmart, DOCK365).
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.
Sustainability
Sustainability reports provided quarterly to standing-order customers; documents pallets recycled, lumber diverted from landfill, and CO2-equivalent savings vs new-only sourcing.
