Grade B pallets are previously used wooden pallets that have been carefully inspected, repaired, and reconditioned to extend their service life. These pallets begin their journey as Grade A pallets but transition to Grade B classification after experiencing normal wear and tear from industrial use.
While Grade B pallets show visible signs of previous use—including wood discoloration, minor splits, or visible repair components—they remain structurally sound and fully functional for most warehousing and shipping applications. Each pallet undergoes thorough inspection to ensure it meets safety and performance standards.
The key difference between Grade A and Grade B pallets lies primarily in appearance rather than functionality. Grade B pallets may feature repair elements such as companion stringers (additional support boards), metal reinforcement plates, or plug repairs where damaged deck boards have been replaced. These repairs are indicators of quality control, not structural weakness.
All our Grade B pallets comply with GMA (Grocery Manufacturers Association) standards for the 48" x 40" footprint, ensuring compatibility with standard warehouse equipment, racking systems, and transportation methods. This makes Grade B pallets an intelligent choice for businesses seeking to reduce operational costs without sacrificing reliability.
Standard Dimensions: 48" x 40" (GMA standard footprint)
Construction Material: Reclaimed and recycled hardwood and softwood combinations
Load Capacity: 2,500–4,600 lbs static load capacity (varies based on specific pallet condition and repair status)
Forklift Access: Full 4-way entry with two notches on each 48" side for maximum handling flexibility
Deck Board Thickness: Typically 5/8" thick top and bottom deck boards
Pallet Weight: Approximately 35-50 lbs per unit (varies with wood moisture content and repair components)
Repair Components: May include companion stringers for additional support, metal reinforcement plates on stress points, plug repairs replacing damaged deck boards, and nail reinforcement
Inspection Standards: Every pallet undergoes rigorous inspection to verify structural integrity, safe handling, and compliance with industry weight-bearing standards
Stringer Configuration: Three-stringer design providing balanced weight distribution and durability
Retail Pricing: $6–$10 per pallet for individual or small quantity purchases
Wholesale Pricing: $5–$7 per pallet for bulk orders (typically 100+ pallets)
Cost Savings: Grade B pallets offer 20–40% savings compared to equivalent Grade A pallets, delivering identical functionality at a fraction of the cost
Volume Discounts: Available for orders exceeding 500 pallets—contact our sales team for custom pricing
Price Comparison:
ROI Example: A warehouse using 1,000 pallets annually saves $4,000–$5,000 by choosing Grade B over Grade A—savings that directly impact your bottom line while maintaining operational efficiency.

Significant Cost Savings: Save 20-40% compared to new Grade A pallets—that's $4-$5 per pallet going back into your operational budget rather than packaging costs.
Environmental Sustainability: Each reconditioned pallet diverts approximately 45 pounds of wood from landfills. Industry data shows that 95%+ of wooden pallets are recycled or reused, making Grade B pallets one of the most sustainable packaging choices available. By choosing reconditioned pallets, you're actively reducing your company's carbon footprint.

Heat-Treated (HT) Grade B Pallets Available
LA Pallet Co offers heat-treated Grade B pallets for businesses requiring ISPM-15 compliance for international shipping. Heat treatment eliminates pests and pathogens that could harm agriculture in destination countries.
Heat Treatment Process: Pallets are heated to a core temperature of 140°F (60°C) for a minimum of 30 continuous minutes. Each treated pallet receives an official ISPM-15 stamp indicating compliance.
When Heat Treatment is Necessary:
Pricing: Heat-treated Grade B pallets typically cost $2-$3 more per unit than standard Grade B pallets, still significantly less expensive than heat-treated Grade A pallets.
Availability: Heat treatment requires advance scheduling. Contact us at least 7-10 days before your required delivery date for HT pallet orders.
While our standard 48" x 40" GMA pallets serve most applications, LA Pallet Co offers Grade B pallets in alternative dimensions:
Available Custom Sizes:
Lead Times: Custom size orders typically require 3-7 business days for fulfillment, depending on quantity and current inventory levels.
Ordering Process: Contact our sales team with your specific dimensional requirements, quantity needed, and timeline. We'll provide a detailed quote and confirm availability within 24 hours.

What is the difference between Grade A and Grade B pallets?
Grade A pallets are in near-pristine condition with minimal signs of use, while Grade B pallets are reconditioned units showing visible wear but remaining structurally sound. The primary difference is cosmetic rather than functional—Grade B pallets cost 20-40% less while performing nearly identically in most applications.
How much weight can a Grade B pallet hold?
Our Grade B pallets safely support static loads of 2,500-4,600 lbs, depending on the specific pallet's condition and repair status. This capacity handles the vast majority of industrial and commercial applications.
What are the dimensions of your Grade B pallets?
Our standard Grade B pallet measures 48" x 40" (the GMA standard footprint). We also offer custom sizes including 36"x36", 40"x40", 48"x48", and larger formats upon request.
Can Grade B pallets be exported internationally?
Grade B pallets can be exported if they've been heat-treated to meet ISPM-15 requirements. Standard (non-heat-treated) Grade B pallets are suitable for domestic use and shipping to Canada and Mexico but cannot be exported to countries requiring ISPM-15 certification.
Do you offer heat-treated Grade B pallets?
Yes! We provide ISPM-15 compliant heat-treated Grade B pallets for international shipping. These pallets cost $2-$3 more per unit than standard Grade B pallets. Please allow 7-10 days for heat treatment processing.
What's the minimum order quantity?
We have no minimum order requirement! Purchase as few as one pallet or as many as several thousand. However, bulk pricing discounts begin at 100+ pallets, with additional savings at higher volumes.
What delivery options are available?
We offer local pickup (same-day available), scheduled delivery, and same-day delivery for orders placed before 10 AM within Los Angeles County. Our fleet can accommodate orders from small quantities to full truckloads.
How quickly can I get pallets?
Most orders ship within 24-48 hours. Local pickup is available same-day during business hours. For urgent needs, contact us about our expedited delivery options.
Do you buy used pallets from businesses?
Yes! LA Pallet Co operates a pallet buy-back program, offering competitive pricing for used pallets in repairable condition. We'll assess your pallets and provide a quote—many customers use pallet sales to offset their purchase costs.
Are wooden pallets recyclable?
Absolutely. Wooden pallets are among the most recycled products in North America, with over 95% being reused or recycled. When pallets can no longer be repaired, the wood is chipped for mulch, animal bedding, or biomass fuel.
