Custom Pallet Manufacturing

Precision Custom Pallet Manufacturing

Milwaukee Pallets USA's custom manufacturing division specializes in engineering and building pallets for unique applications where standard dimensions simply won't work. With over 20 years of custom fabrication experience, we've produced pallets for everything from heavy industrial machinery (12,000+ lb capacity) to delicate electronics displays (miniature 18x24 pallets). Our design team collaborates with clients to optimize pallet specifications for product protection, warehouse efficiency, shipping economics, and automated handling system compatibility. From concept to delivered product, we provide complete turnkey custom pallet solutions.

Our manufacturing facility operates 6 state-of-the-art pallet assembly lines capable of producing 2,000+ custom pallets daily. We maintain extensive lumber inventory including oak, pine, hardwood, heat-treated timber, and specialty wood species. Our computer-controlled cutting systems ensure precision cuts to ±1/8 inch tolerances—critical for automated warehousing systems and international shipping containers. Each custom pallet undergoes rigorous quality control including dimensional verification, load testing, and visual inspection before shipment. We guarantee spec compliance or manufacture replacements at no charge.

Custom capabilities span the full spectrum of pallet designs: block pallets, stringer pallets, skids, double-face pallets, reversible pallets, export-compliant ISPM 15 pallets, notched pallets for automated systems, pallets with non-skid surfaces, painted/branded pallets, and pallets designed for specific racking systems. We work with virtually any dimension—from compact 24x24 display pallets to oversized 96x120 machinery pallets. Load capacities range from light-duty 500 lbs to heavy-duty 10,000+ lbs with specialized reinforcement.

Our engineering team provides comprehensive design consultation at no charge. Bring us your product dimensions, weight, handling requirements, and shipping parameters—we'll recommend optimal pallet specifications. Using CAD software and load analysis tools, we design pallets that minimize material costs while maximizing strength and durability. For complex applications, we build and test prototypes before full production runs. Many clients have reduced shipping damage by 40-60% and improved warehouse density by 20-30% through optimized custom pallet designs.

Pricing reflects the complexity and volume of your order. Small runs (10-50 pallets) allow testing new designs with minimal investment. Medium runs (50-500) benefit from production economies and reduced per-unit costs. Large contracts (500+ monthly) qualify for volume discounts up to 25% and guaranteed pricing for 12-24 months. Lead times range from 7-10 days for simple custom dimensions to 3-4 weeks for complex engineered designs requiring load testing and certification. Rush production available with premium pricing.
