Millwood Ships 500,000 Pallets Daily
Millwood, Inc. is a leading supplier of new and recycled pallets in the U.S. Of the 1.8 billion pallets in service in the U.S. each day, 500,000 of them are coming from one of Millwood’s 40+ locations. That’s enough pallets to fill approximately 70 football fields daily!
The Millwood Difference
Behind each pallet is a dedicated team working to provide services our customers can count on, day in and day out. Millwood focuses on more than just production numbers. For us, innovation, sustainability and customized solutions are at the forefront of our operations.
- Innovation in Design: As an industry leader, Millwood remains on the cutting edge of pallet technology. Our ISTA-certified Test Lab allows us to assess unit load performance by simulating real-world hazards that your load could face in transport. During testing, our experts observe how the pallet, packaging and material handling systems perform as one unit.
- Sustainability Focused: Our recycled pallets keep waste out of landfills and save our customers money at the same time. We have also developed comprehensive recycling programs, reducing not only wood waste but carbon emissions as well.
- Custom Solutions: Millwood’s capabilities provide a unique opportunity to craft the ideal pallet solution for a variety of industries as well as individual products. The specially-engineered solutions allow for a safer product shipping process, saving money in the long run by preventing damage. The right custom pallet can also reduce warehouse or shipping container footprint, which in turn reduces costs.
Millwood’s Dedicated Teams
Millwood’s facilities across the nation are home to nearly 2,000 team members who ensure that each pallet meets the highest standards.
From the hands-on workers building and inspecting the pallets, to our logistics teams coordinating timely deliveries, every person plays a crucial role in making this daily feat possible. We’re proud to have a team that is dedicated to excellence and safety.
A Faith-First Business
While 500,000 pallets a day is quite a feat, it’s not just about logistics or numbers for Millwood, it’s about reflecting our mission that all who come in contact with our company would clearly see the love of Christ in all that we do.
At Millwood, we believe that every interaction, whether with our customers, team members or the community at large, is an opportunity to live out that mission. Each pallet we ship represents a commitment to trust, servitude, integrity and discipleship, the pillars that guide our vision to be a light in the marketplace.
