Avg savings vs. incumbents

Why customers switch
Three things stop being a problem.
Most pallet problems aren't pallet problems. They're vendor-management problems. We replace the management.
Speed
< 24 hrs
Quote to dispatch
Quote-to-dispatch on standard specs. We maintain a live capacity ledger across the network, so the bid that hits your inbox is already inventoried and routed.
Overhead
50 states
Single contact, fewer fires
One MSA, one AP relationship, consolidated invoicing. Your team stops managing pallet vendors and starts running every plant on the same delivered cost.
How it works
Three steps. One contact.
The mechanics behind the 12–15%. We took the procurement loop and stripped it down to the work that produces price discipline.
- 01Step 1
You tell us what you need.
Quantity, spec, ZIP, when. A spec sheet or a sticky note — either works. We handle the rest.
Most users submit through the quote form in under 90 seconds.
- 02Step 2
The whole network competes for your order.
We put your spec in front of the whole network. Every qualified supplier in your delivery radius competes for your order — not a shortlist, the full field.
The best bids land in your inbox, already worked out to true delivered cost and lead time.
- 03Step 3
Lowest-cost vetted supplier dispatches.
You approve. We dispatch. The freight, the BOL, the treatment cert — all of it routes through one contact.
Under 24 hours from quote to truck rolling on standard specs.

Industries
Built for spec-critical procurement.
Different industries want different things out of a pallet. We map your spec to the suppliers who already produce it at audit-ready quality.
Why not buy direct
The math on managing five regional yards yourself.
You can run pallet procurement direct. Most teams do, until they price the time, the variance, and the missed dock windows.

Customer story
We were running a stack of regional vendors and still missing dock-times during peak. Chesapeake consolidated all of it under one contract — consistent pricing, a single point of contact, and a defensible spend number to bring to the CFO.
