Delaware punches above its weight as a pallet market. The Port of Wilmington is the leading importer of fresh fruit into the northeastern US, handling bananas, melons, and citrus year-round -- all requiring food-grade pallets. The state also hosts the North American headquarters of AstraZeneca and major DuPont facilities, creating steady demand for pharmaceutical and chemical-grade pallets.

Where these come from, and why they match Maryland. The state table in our pallet cost guide publishes Delaware at $8 to $13 recycled Grade A and $14 to $18 new, the same as Maryland, and it says why: Delaware is served primarily out of the New Jersey and Maryland supply, so it prices to the mid-Atlantic average rather than to its own separate market. Three counties is not enough independent volume to move a price away from the corridor it is supplied from. We publish the same numbers deliberately rather than differentiate them for the sake of looking state-specific. Grade B and Grade C are the national published bands from the same guide, because the state table breaks out state-level figures for Grade A recycled and new GMA only. The heat-treatment row is the cost guide's published ISPM-15 premium of $2 to $3. One row is derived with the arithmetic printed: block applies the 15% to 30% block premium to new GMA ($14 x 1.15 = $16.10, $18 x 1.30 = $23.40, rounded to $16 to $23). Plastic is quote-only because no purchase price for plastic is published anywhere on this site. Yard ranges before freight. Delaware is past the 800-mile edge of the freight table we publish, so delivered cost to Wilmington or Newark is quoted per load rather than estimated here. Ask for a quote.
Port of Wilmington -- Fresh Produce Pallet Requirements
The Port of Wilmington handles more fresh bananas than any other US port, importing from Ecuador, Colombia, Honduras, and Guatemala year-round on behalf of Dole, Chiquita, and Del Monte. Fresh produce pallets must meet strict hygiene standards:
Grade A only -- no broken boards, split stringers, or protruding nails
Food-grade certified wood -- no chemical treatment other than approved kiln-drying
Dry and odor-free -- moisture content below 19% to prevent mold
ISPM-15 compliant for any re-export of produce in original packaging
Inspected on arrival -- damaged pallets rejected and charged back to supplier
AstraZeneca / Pharma Corridor -- GDP Pallet Compliance
AstraZeneca's North American headquarters in Wilmington, combined with multiple contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) and biotech startups in the New Castle County / Wilmington biotech corridor, creates consistent demand for GDP-compliant pallets. These customers require new hardwood block pallets or food-grade plastic, with batch documentation available on request.

Frequently Asked Questions
Produce importers at Port of Wilmington require Grade A GMA stringer pallets made from clean, kiln-dried hardwood with no chemical contamination, protruding nails, broken boards, or moisture damage. Pallet moisture content should be below 19% to prevent mold development in refrigerated containers. ISPM-15 heat treatment is required for any re-export scenarios.
Yes. GDP guidelines require pharmaceutical companies to maintain pallet inspection records. AstraZeneca and similar biotech customers typically require a Certificate of Conformance or delivery documentation stating pallet grade, species, treatment type, and inspection date. We provide this documentation with pharmaceutical orders on request.
Yes -- New Castle, Kent, and Sussex counties are all within our standard delivery territory. New Castle (Wilmington, Newark) typically delivers next day on truckload orders. Kent and Sussex counties usually deliver in 1-3 business days depending on quantity and location.
Yes, these are separate certifications. Food-grade pallets meet hygiene standards (clean, no chemical treatment, no contamination) and are suitable for direct food contact use. ISPM-15 is a phytosanitary treatment standard that kills pests and pathogens in the wood -- required for international shipments but does not automatically make a pallet 'food-grade.' Produce importers at Port of Wilmington typically need pallets that meet both standards for re-export.
Full truckloads (560-580 GMA pallets per 53-foot trailer) qualify for best per-pallet pricing. We accommodate smaller orders for established customers. Contact us to discuss your requirements -- we serve Delaware regularly and can often accommodate urgent orders.
