Block pallets

Where 2-way stringer entry slows your forklift drivers down — or your AS/RS demands full 4-way access. Block construction delivers true 4-way entry and higher capacity at a modest premium.

Why bid this through us

Block construction is more labor-intensive to produce, and yard-to-yard pricing reflects current production capacity more than raw lumber cost. Bidding catches the yard currently running block lines.
