FAQ - Selling 42x42 Pallets

How much do you pay for 42x42 pallets?

Florida Pallet Supply pays current market rate per pallet for 42x42 chemical and drum pallets, with the highest tier going to Grade A premium condition pallets. Final pay rate depends on grade (A/B/C), pickup distance from primary network yards (FL/GA/NJ/MD/DE), current market demand, and total load size. Bulk loads of 500+ same-size pallets get the best per-pallet rate. ISPM-15 heat-treated 42x42 pallets command a 15-25% premium for export resale.

Can I sell mixed pallet sizes?

No. Florida Pallet Supply only buys single-size loads. If you have 42x42 pallets mixed with other sizes (e.g., 48x40 GMA), you must separate the stacks before pickup and submit separate quote requests for each size. Mixed loads are rejected because our commercial resale customers require consistent pallet specifications.
