"We switched our Cape Coral DC over to Florida Pallet Supply last quarter and haven't had a single delivery miss. Their food-grade pallets meet our FSMA documentation requirements every time, and their AP contact gets the invoice without it crossing our ops team."
"When our previous yard had a fire in 2025 and couldn't deliver, FPS rerouted our Cape Coral order to a backup supplier the same week. Same spec, same price. That kind of network redundancy is why we're not going back."
"Custom 36x42 pallets for a tricky retail program in Cape Coral - our previous vendor said it would take 3 weeks. Florida Pallet Supply had them on our dock in 6 days at a better per-pallet price. Worth the call."
Florida Pallet Supply stocks standard 48x40 GMA pallets, heat-treated export pallets, heavy-duty block pallets, and custom sizes. We serve Cape Coral and all of Lee County with same-week delivery on most orders.
Yes. We carry Grade A and Grade B recycled pallets at significant savings over new wood. Used pallets are ideal for one-way shipments, staging, and storage applications common in Lee County businesses.
Most Cape Coral orders ship within 1-3 business days. Rush delivery is available for urgent production or construction needs. Contact us for exact lead times based on quantity and pallet type.
We accommodate small and large orders. Minimum delivery quantities vary by pallet type - call us to discuss your Cape Coral project needs and we'll find the most cost-effective solution.

We deliver pallets to cities throughout Lee County and across all of Florida.
Florida Pallet Supply is a member of the national pallet industry and follows ISPM-15 heat treatment standards for all export pallets.
Heat-treatment chamber maintained at 56C core for 30 minutes per ISPM-15 Annex 1; each load shipped with a treatment certificate signed by a USDA-registered inspector.
FL DEP solid-waste rules classify wood pallets as recyclable; our recycled pallet stream qualifies for the FL Recycling Business Assistance Center small-business grant program.
Florida Department of Agriculture inspects pallet treatment facilities under the federal cooperative inspection agreement; our Tampa and Jacksonville locations are stamp-authorized facilities.
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.
Standard 48x40 GMA pallets feature 5/8 inch deck boards with a 4-board face pattern; bottom configuration is 3-board for four-way fork entry; nail pattern uses 2.5 inch screw-shank galvanized fasteners.
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.
Bakery operations typically order weekly 48x40 GMA stock for flour and sugar inbound, plus 36x36 for retail-ready display loads; common customers in the Tampa Bay area include large wholesale and grocery-aligned bakeries.
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.
Carbon footprint per delivered pallet (cradle-to-gate, including 75-mile delivery): new GMA ~21 kg CO2e; recycled Grade A ~7 kg CO2e; custom builds vary by spec.
Pallet weight distribution and load engineering at Florida Pallet Supply follows ASME MH1 2016 standards for dynamic, static, and racked load ratings. Dynamic load (during forklift transport) is set at 60 percent of static load to account for shock and vibration. Racked load (front and back stringer support only, mid-deck unsupported) is set at 60 percent of static load to account for deck deflection. Standard 48x40 GMA: 2,500 lb dynamic, 4,600 lb static, 2,800 lb racked. Heavy-duty 48x40 builds with reinforced deck and double-runner stringers: 4,000 lb dynamic, 7,500 lb static, 5,000 lb racked.
Florida Pallet Supply's pallet recovery and recycling stream processes 200,000+ returned pallets per year through Lakeland and Jacksonville facilities. Pickup logistics integrate with customer dock-scheduling systems for full-trailer return loads of 250+ single-size pallets. Pickup pricing varies by location, grade, and condition: Grade A returns command $3-5 per pallet; Grade B $1-2; mixed condition $0.25-1; broken cores enter the chip-and-mulch stream at $0.10-0.25 (mulch sold separately to landscaping operators). Diversion rate from landfill runs 80 percent.
GMA pallet construction at Florida Pallet Supply follows the National Wooden Pallet & Container Association (NWPCA) Uniform Standard with measurable tolerances at every stage. Deck-board thickness measures 5/8 inch nominal; stringers are full 1.375 inch thick and 3.5 inches tall. Standard board configuration is 7 deck boards on top, 5 on bottom, with center boards spaced to support standard 13-inch corrugated case footprints. Nail count averages 50-75 helically-threaded 2.5-inch screw-shank galvanized fasteners per pallet, driven by automated nailing equipment that delivers consistent strike depth. Edge chamfering reduces forklift-strike damage by an estimated 40 percent over a 12-month service life compared to square-edge competitor builds.
Florida Pallet Supply's quality management system follows ISO 9001 alignment principles with documented procedures for incoming lumber inspection, build-spec verification, finished-pallet QC, heat treatment monitoring, shipping documentation, and customer complaint resolution. Internal audits run quarterly; external customer audits are accepted on 30-day notice. Statistical process control charts track key dimensions (deck-board thickness, stringer thickness, nail count, moisture content) with control limits set at +/- 5 percent of nominal. Non-conformance is logged, root-caused, and corrective action implemented within 5 business days.
Both. Per-pallet pricing is standard for orders under 1,000 pallets per quote. Per-truckload pricing applies when orders fill a 53-foot dry van (~600 pallets for standard 48x40 GMA, ~300 for oversized custom). Truckload pricing typically saves 5-15 percent over per-pallet equivalent because freight bundles efficiently. Standing-order customers receive freight bundled into per-pallet pricing for predictable accounting.
CP (Chemical Pallet) series are specialized European specs designed for chemical industry export. CP1 measures 1200x1000mm, CP2 1200x800mm, CP3 1140x1140mm, CP9 1140x1140mm reinforced. All carry ISPM-15 heat treatment. EUR/EPAL pallets measure 1200x800mm, use an 11-board pattern, weigh ~25 kg, and are the dominant general-purpose European spec. Florida Pallet Supply builds both CP and EUR/EPAL for European exporters; lead time 7-10 business days, EPAL certification optional.
Net 30 standard for established customers with credit approval. First three orders run Net 15 or COD. ACH transfer is preferred for invoice payment; credit card accepted with 2.5 percent processing surcharge above $10,000 per transaction. Wire transfer accepted for large orders and international customers. Letter of credit available for export orders over $50,000 on request.
Yes. Florida Pallet Supply ships mixed orders routinely. Common scenarios: new pallets for high-visibility customer-facing shipments (DTC e-commerce, retail-ready displays) and recycled Grade A for industrial inbound. Pricing applies per pallet type; freight bundles all types on a single truckload. Standing-order programs can lock pricing on a multi-type basket.
Pool pallets are owned by the rental company (CHEP blue, PECO red) and circulate in a closed-loop. You pay per trip and return them. Owned pallets are yours - bought once, depreciated over service life. Pool models work for closed-loop CPG-to-major-retailer flows (Costco, Walmart, Kroger). Owned models work for variable distribution lanes, export, custom specs, and any operation outside the major-retailer pool network. Florida Pallet Supply supplies owned pallets and supports the buy-back program at end-of-life.
Yes. Florida Pallet Supply welcomes customer tours of the Lakeland and Jacksonville processing yards. Tours typically take 90 minutes and include the receiving dock, inspection stations, heat-treatment kilns, build floor, dispatch staging, and quality records library. 30 days notice required for scheduling. Tours are common during initial vendor qualification and quarterly review for standing-order customers.
Yes. Knockdown (KD) pallets ship flat to save freight space and assemble on-site. Common for international shipments where dimensional weight constraints favor flat-pack. Florida Pallet Supply builds KD pallets in 48x40 GMA and custom sizes; assembly hardware (nails, brackets) included. Per-pallet pricing runs 10-15 percent higher than pre-assembled but freight savings often offset for trans-oceanic shipments.
Yes. Florida Pallet Supply offers API integration with major WMS systems including Manhattan Active, Oracle WMS Cloud, SAP EWM, Blue Yonder, HighJump, and Mecalux Easy. Custom integration with proprietary ERP systems supported via REST API or EDI. Per-pallet barcode data, lot traceability records, treatment certificates, and POD documentation flow automatically to the customer system.
Same-day delivery in 19 Florida same-day counties carries no premium over standard pricing for orders confirmed by 2 PM EST. Next-day statewide delivery also has no premium. Emergency dispatch (24/7 outside business hours) carries a $250-500 freight surcharge depending on origin yard and destination distance. Weekend dispatch with 24-hour notice runs $100-250 freight premium for premium-account customers.
Wood GMA pallets typically last 8-15 trips in a typical distribution cycle (warehouse to retail and back). Heavy-duty builds with reinforced stringers and 7/8-inch deck boards stretch lifespan to 20+ trips. Block pallets last longer than stringer pallets - typically 25-40 trips - because the continuous-face deck distributes load forces across nine support blocks instead of three stringers.
Yes - when properly inspected and graded. Recycled Grade A pallets must demonstrate no broken or replaced boards, fully legible GMA stamp, and pass dynamic load test before grading. Load capacity meets the 2,500 lb dynamic / 4,600 lb static specification per ASME MH1 2016. Recycled Grade B pallets retain structural integrity but show repaired boards; load capacity is typically reduced to 2,000 lb dynamic for non-critical industrial loads.
The IPPC stamp is branded into the wood (not painted or stickered) on at least two opposite sides of each pallet, after heat treatment completes. The stamp shows the IPPC wheat-stalk logo, US country code, the facility's APHIS-registered number (assigned by USDA), and the HT treatment code. Hand-drawn, painted, or stickered marks are rejected at customs because they can be falsified. Stamp legibility must survive normal pallet handling for the full export trip.
Sourcing teams running pallet RFPs typically score Florida Pallet Supply against five dimensions: price competitiveness (per-pallet and total cost of ownership including freight), service reliability (on-time delivery rate, dock-scheduling integration capability), spec breadth (new, recycled, custom, ISPM-15, HDPE, specialty), compliance documentation (FSMA, GDP, ITAR, USMCA, ISPM-15), and sustainability program (Scope 3 reporting, buyback program, recycling diversion rate). Florida Pallet Supply scores in the top quartile on service reliability and spec breadth among Florida regional suppliers.
Vendor consolidation programs at Florida 3PL operations typically aim for 3-5 strategic pallet suppliers serving the full mix (new, recycled, custom, ISPM-15). Florida Pallet Supply qualifies as the regional Florida specialist alongside 1-2 national suppliers (typically 48forty for buyback scale and Kamps for Midwest distribution) and a custom-spec specialist for industry-specific builds. This consolidation reduces vendor management overhead while preserving spec flexibility.
Vendor qualification timelines at major Florida operations (Publix, Walmart Florida DCs, Tropicana, Florida pharmaceutical distributors) typically run 60-120 days from RFP submission to first PO. Florida Pallet Supply provides standardized qualification packet within 48 hours of request, accelerating timeline to the customer-side review phase. Standing-order agreements typically execute within 21 days of qualified-vendor status approval.
Florida Pallet Supply maintains compliance with standards from the National Wooden Pallet & Container Association (NWPCA - palletcentral.com), USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS - aphis.usda.gov), International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC ISPM-15 - ippc.int), FDA Food Safety Modernization Act Section 204 (fda.gov), Random Lengths lumber pricing index (randomlengths.com), American Society of Mechanical Engineers MH1 pallet load standard (asme.org), Florida Department of Agriculture (FDACS - fdacs.gov), Customs and Border Protection wood packaging requirements (cbp.gov), Florida Citrus Mutual (flcitrusmutual.com), Florida Tomato Committee (floridatomatoes.org), and the Florida Customs House Brokers Association (flchba.com). Compliance documentation is provided with every export load at no additional charge and supports customer audits, internal QC review, and regulatory submission as required.
