Custom Wooden Pallets/Skids

Custom Built Pallets Manufactured to Specification

Wooden pallets “move the world” and are a critical element of product packaging and logistics. Pallets facilitate material movement and efficient supply chain and logistics operations. We manufacture, refurbish, and recycle a wide variety of pallet sizes and styles.


Custom Pallets to Meet Any Need

We specialize in custom pallets designed for your specific unit load size, handling environment, and shipping requirements. Any size, any quantity. There are two principal pallet styles (stringer and block) and they can be designed with a variety of deck board configurations — tops and bottoms, number, width, overhang, and spacing. In addition, plywood or oriented strand board (OSB) can be used as deck material (otherwise known as a “panel deck” pallet).


Standard Pallets

The stringer pallet is the most commonly used pallet in the United States, with the most common size being 48 x 40″. The Grocery Manufacturer Association (GMA) has created a standard 48 x 40 hardwood stringer pallet specification that is used widely for many consumer products. We offer a selection of “standard” 48×40 pallets, new GMA, #1 used GMA, #2 used/recycled GMA and a heat-treated 48×40, 4-way international one-way shipping pallet that we call “LPCs”.

Stringer Pallets

Stringer Pallets

A stringer pallet uses “runners” or “stringers,” to support the unit load. The stringers are the boards, typically 2 x 4’s or 3 x 4’s, sandwiched between the top and bottom deck boards.

When specifying a stringer pallet, the length (i.e. the length of the stringer) is noted first, and the width or length of the deck boards is noted second. Stringers may be notched to allow for partial four-way fork entry, thus creating a “4-way” stringer pallet. If the stringers are not notched, it is called a “2-way” pallet, with fork entry only from either end.

Block Pallets

Block Pallets

Block pallets are true 4-way entry pallets. They use blocks of solid wood, plywood, or plastic to support the unit load. Between the blocks and the deck boards are thin stringers, which form a mat with the deck board. The length of a block pallet is specified by the length of the stringer board and the width by the length of the deck boards. Block pallets can be designed with or without bottom deck boards, or a full-perimeter base.
