Pallets for Warehouses and Distribution Centers

A distribution site runs on two pallet flows at once: stock coming in on the dock and empties piling up behind it. Grunge Pallets supplies the first and clears the second, from a yard in Winston that is inside the I-20 West corridor most of these sites sit on.

What distribution sites usually order

The 48x40 is the default, and for most warehouse work Grade B pallets do the job: sound, repaired, ready to take a load into racking or onto a truck. Sites shipping to retailers with receiving standards move up to Grade A pallets, which are cleaner and squarer and get accepted at the other end without an argument. Where a customer's freight comes in on odd footprints, custom sizes are cut to order.

Orders are placed by the stack or by the truckload. Regular users run a standing delivery, weekly or every two weeks, so the dock never runs short in the middle of a shift. One-off orders go out same week across Metro Atlanta and West Georgia.

The empties problem

Inbound freight arrives on one-way pallets that nobody wants to keep. They stack up along the wall, then in the yard, then in a trailer someone needed. Pallet removal runs on a schedule that suits the dock, and for sites that generate empties faster than a weekly pickup can clear them, a drop trailer sits on the yard and is swapped when it fills, so the team loads empties as they appear rather than stacking them somewhere.

Sites that both use and discard pallets at volume usually run supply and removal on the same schedule: the truck that brings the Grade B stock leaves with the empties. One arrangement instead of two.

What we need from you

Your receiving hours, the dock or yard access, how many pallets you go through in a week, and what the inbound empties look like (clean 48x40s repair well; broken or odd sizes are priced as removal). With that, the quote is a number, not a range.

Where we run

The yard is at 1925 Jason Industrial Parkway, Winston, GA, next to Douglasville. The shortest runs are along I-20 West and US-78: Douglasville, Villa Rica, Lithia Springs, Carrollton. Same-week delivery and pickup cover the rest of Metro Atlanta and West Georgia; the service areas page lists the towns we work in most.

Frequently asked questions

Do you deliver to a specific dock door or time window?

Yes. Deliveries are set around your receiving hours, and a standing schedule keeps the same slot week to week.

Can you take our empties when you deliver?

Yes. Supply and removal run on the same truck for sites that want one arrangement; removal is a paid pickup priced per site.

What grade should a distribution center order?

Grade B covers most internal moves and truck loading. Grade A is the safer choice when the pallet has to pass a customer's receiving check.
