Reliable Logistics Partners Create Happy, Satisfied Customers
If you’re shipping products in bulk or large quantities then chances are you’re using pallets. Atlanta has many manufacturers and distributors who ship all over the country. A reliable pallet supplier ensures that your customers get your product on time and unblemished.
Atlanta is THE distribution hub for the southeastern US. From Atlanta proper to suburbs like McDonough, Lawrenceville, Lithia Springs and Gainesville to the north a large percentage of goods destined for the southeastern US move through the Atlanta logistics hub.
In addition to being a major logistics hub, Atlanta is home to a variety of manufacturers and distributors. Companies like Coca-Cola, Home Depot and UPS call Atlanta their headquarters and for good reason. Georgia has a friendly business climate, skilled workforce and mild weather compared to cities in the north. Combined with Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson Airport, one of the world’s largest airports offering flights virtually anywhere in the world, and easy interstate access Atlanta is a prime location for not only Fortune 500 companies but also small and medium sized businesses as well.
What Type of Pallet Do I Need?
While pallets are made from various materials such as steel, aluminum, plastic and even corrugated paper wood remains one of the best overall choices for pallet construction. One, it comes from a renewable resource (trees). Two, wood pallets can be easily repaired compared to alternative materials, some of which can’t be repaired at all once damaged. Third, a wood pallet at the end of its useful life can be ground into animal bedding, paper pulp material or landscape mulch. Very few pallets end up in landfills, although even ones that do are completely biodegradable.
Wood pallets also lend themselves to be built in easily customized sizes and configurations. Also, most pallet lumber is lower garde lumber that would not be used in the framing or finished wood products industry such as furniture or architectural millwork. In relation to other materials wood has a distinct cost advantage.
What Can Premier Pallets Do?
Premier provides new, recycled and remanufactured pallets to a variety of manufacturers, growers, distribution and warehouse operations plus third-party logistics organizations. Our recycled pallets are bought, repaired and graded based on the pallet’s condition and includes, in the 48 x 40 sizes, premium A grades, standard A grades, B+ grades and B grade pallets. For a more specific description of each grade, check out our Recycled Wood Pallets page.
We can build new pallets from mixed hardwoods, like oak and maple, or softwood lumber like southern yellow pine. To maximize price savings we can even do a combination of the two types of lumber and we have new pallet manufacturing facilities in both Florida and Georgia. Our remanufactured or “combo” pallets are built from scratch using all reclaimed lumber or a combination of new and reclaimed lumber. These pallets are a great alternative to buying new pallets as the cost will be less.
Professional service, quality product and competitively priced.
