What Are Wooden Pallets?

Wooden pallets are the rigid wood bases that carry a unitized load, so a stack of boxes, bags, or crates moves and stores as one. Forklifts and pallet jacks lift them from below, which is what lets a warehouse or a shipping operation handle heavy loads quickly and safely.

For defense shipments, the pallet is the foundation of a palletized unit load. It holds the load stable through handling and stacking, and it gives the supply chain a standard base to move material from the plant floor to the depot to the field.

We build wooden pallets in the types, sizes, and load ratings your program requires, from standard footprints to custom bases matched to a specific load. That means a pallet built for your shipment, not a generic platform it has to fit.

Key Benefits

Every wooden pallet we supply carries your load stable and ready to move:

Pallet Types We Supply

We build the pallet types military and industrial shipping call for:

Stringer and Block Pallets

The two main constructions are stringer and block. A stringer pallet uses long boards, the stringers, between the deck boards, giving an economical base with two-way or notched four-way entry. A block pallet uses blocks at the corners and midpoints, giving full four-way access for forklifts and pallet jacks from any side.

The choice comes down to handling and load. Block pallets suit operations that need four-way access and heavier loads, while stringer pallets are economical for standard handling. Tell us how your load is moved, and we will recommend the construction that fits.

Common Applications

Wooden pallets carry the unitized loads across a defense program:

Industries That Rely on Wooden Pallets

Wooden pallets move the material these sectors ship and store every day:

How to Choose the Right Pallet

A few factors point you to the right wooden pallet. Weigh these, or send us the load and we will recommend one:

Where Pallets Fit in Your Operation

A wooden pallet is the base that ties a shipment together. Your boxes, bags, and crates stack onto it, and the whole load becomes one unit that a forklift moves, a truck carries, and a warehouse stores. Everything above the pallet builds up from it.

Sourced as one system, the pallet is matched to the load it carries and the boxes or crates on it, so a heavy, unitized shipment moves and stores as a stable whole from the dock to the destination.

Built for Palletized Unit Loads

Military shipments move as palletized unit loads, and MIL-STD-147 sets how those loads are built. The pallet is the foundation, carrying a uniform, stable stack that the supply chain can handle and store efficiently. We build pallets to support that standard, sized and rated to the load they carry.

A stable unit load starts with the right pallet under it. We match the pallet to the footprint, weight, and stacking of your load, so the boxes and crates on top stay square and secure through handling, transit, and storage.

Export Pallets and ISPM 15

Wooden pallets bound overseas are solid-wood packaging material, so they must meet ISPM 15, the international standard that requires heat treatment and marking to prevent the spread of pests. A pallet without it can be held or rejected at the border.

We build export pallets with heat-treated lumber and the ISPM 15 mark, so your palletized loads clear customs. Tell us your destination, and we will make sure the pallet under your shipment meets the export requirements.

Custom Sizes and Load Ratings

A pallet works best when it fits the load. We build custom sizes and deck configurations matched to your boxes, crates, or equipment, so the load sits fully supported with no overhang and no wasted space. We rate the construction to the weight it must carry.

For heavy or unusual loads, we adjust the lumber, deck spacing, and construction to hold it securely. Tell us the footprint and weight, and we will build a pallet rated and sized for your shipment.

Talk to a Packaging Specialist

Matching a pallet to a load is what we do. Our team helps buyers and logistics managers choose the type, size, and load rating, and meet the palletization and export requirements that govern the shipment.

Send us the load, its weight, how it is handled, and any spec callouts, and we will recommend the right wooden pallet and quote it, so your shipment moves stable and compliant from the first unit.

Built Around Your Packaging Spec

Every program moves its loads a little differently, and we build to yours. When your documentation names a pallet type, size, or load rating, we match it exactly. When the choice is open, we recommend the pallet that fits the load and the handling.

That flexibility means your packaging satisfies the spec and moves the load in practice, with no gap between the two.

Part of a Complete Packaging System

A wooden pallet does its best work as the base of a full system. We box, bag, and crate the shipment, stack it on the pallet, and secure the unit load with blocking, bracing, and marking. Sourced together, the pallet carries a stable, compliant unit load that moves and stores as one from the dock to the destination.

Built to Military Standards

We build pallets to support MIL-STD-147 palletized unit loads and the marking of MIL-STD-129, and for export we build to ISPM 15 heat-treatment and marking. Each standard governs part of the shipment, and we build to the ones your program requires.

Where your drawing calls out a pallet type, size, or standard, we match it. Where it leaves a choice, we recommend the pallet that carries the load and passes inspection. Either way, you get a base you can ship on.

How to Order Wooden Pallets

Tell us the load you need to carry, its weight, how it is handled, where it is headed, and any spec callouts, and we will recommend the right type, size, and construction.

We supply wooden pallets on their own or as part of a complete packaging system, with availability and turnaround confirmed in your quote.

Why Choose Military Packaging

We build pallets sized and rated to your load, with heat-treated export options, and we know how to match them to the boxes and crates they carry in a compliant system.

When your material has to move stable and inspection-ready, our wooden pallets give it a foundation built for the load and the journey.

Frequently Asked Questions

A stringer pallet uses long boards, the stringers, and offers two-way or notched four-way entry. A block pallet uses corner and midpoint blocks for full four-way forklift and jack access, which suits heavier loads and operations that need access from any side.

Yes. We build custom sizes, deck configurations, and load ratings matched to your load, so it sits fully supported with no overhang. Tell us the footprint and weight, and we will build a pallet sized and rated for your shipment.

Yes. Wooden pallets are solid-wood packaging material, so export shipments must meet ISPM 15 heat treatment and marking. We build export pallets with heat-treated lumber and the ISPM 15 mark so they clear customs.

A palletized unit load is a stack of boxes, bags, or crates unitized on a pallet so it moves and stores as one. MIL-STD-147 sets how military unit loads are built, and we build pallets to support it.

We build in hardwood and softwood depending on the strength the load requires. Heavier loads favor hardwood, while lighter loads can use softwood. We match the lumber to your weight and handling.

Yes. We build pallets to support MIL-STD-147 palletized unit loads and MIL-STD-129 marking, with ISPM 15 heat treatment for export. Send us your callout and we will confirm the type, size, and construction.
