Operational details for Tennessee
Which compliance standards apply?
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.
Tennessee 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.
Standard delivery scheduling: orders confirmed by 2 PM EST ship same day from the nearest yard; orders after 2 PM ship next-business-day; weekend dispatch available with 24-hour notice for premium accounts.
What are the pallet specifications?
Recycled-Grade B pallets meet structural spec but may have up to 2 replaced deck boards; suitable for industrial loads outside food/pharma; price point 30-40% below new GMA.
ISPM-15 export pallets receive heat treatment to 56C core temperature for 30 minutes; stamping shows IPPC logo, country code 'US', registered facility number, and treatment code 'HT'.
Delivery and logistics
Dry-van loads handle weather-sensitive pallet stock and food-grade freight; sealed loads with bill-of-lading documentation; supports DOT-required commercial routing.
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).
How are these pallets priced?
ISPM-15 export documentation included on every applicable load at no additional cost; some competitors charge $50-150 per load for the certificate; we don't.
Sustainability
Pallet recycling diverts ~80% of returned stock from landfill; recycled pallets carry 60-70% lower embodied carbon than new GMA; our annual sustainability report documents tons diverted per customer.
