Frequently Asked Questions

A combo pallet is a remanufactured pallet built from both recycled and new lumber components. This design balances cost savings with reliable performance.

Combo pallets are ideal when operations require the durability of new pallets but want to reduce costs and environmental impact. Millwood inspects and rebuilds each pallet, replacing compromised deck boards or stringers with new lumber. This hybrid approach ensures structural integrity and consistency for handling, shipping and storage, making combo pallets a trusted option for companies prioritizing sustainability and budget efficiency.

Combo pallets differ from standard used pallets by including new lumber in their build, which improves consistency and strength.

While used pallets are repaired and recirculated, combo pallets undergo a deeper rebuild process. Weak or missing components are replaced with new wood, extending performance life. This makes them more uniform and reliable than general recycled pallets. Combo pallets are especially valuable for businesses needing a sustainable yet stronger solution without paying full new pallet pricing, striking a balance between quality and affordability.
