Flexible Options
Delivery Options to Fit Every Operation
From a single stack to a full truckload, we match the right delivery method to your volume, timeline, and budget.
Scheduled Route Delivery
Our most cost-effective option. We run regular delivery routes throughout Oregon, Washington, and Northern California. Your pallets ride along on an established route, which keeps per-pallet shipping costs low. Ideal for businesses with predictable weekly or biweekly pallet needs that can plan a day or two ahead.
Just-in-Time (JIT) Delivery
When your production schedule cannot wait, our JIT service delivers pallets exactly when you need them -- not a day early, not an hour late. We hold inventory earmarked for your order and dispatch it on your signal. JIT delivery eliminates the need to warehouse pallets on-site, freeing up floor space and reducing carrying costs.
Bulk Truckload Shipments
Need a full truckload of pallets? We load our flatbeds or enclosed trailers with 400 to 800+ pallets per shipment depending on size and stack height. Bulk orders come with the best per-unit pricing and are the preferred option for large distribution centers, national retailers opening new locations, and seasonal businesses stocking up before peak demand.
LTL & Partial Load
For orders that fall between a few stacks and a full truckload, our less-than-truckload service consolidates your shipment with other deliveries heading in the same direction. You pay only for the space your pallets occupy, not for a full truck. This option is popular with mid-size businesses and those trying a new pallet supplier for the first time.

Why Our Logistics Work
The Advantage of a Vertically Integrated Pallet Supplier
Most pallet delivery services are just trucking companies -- they haul someone else's product. At Pallets West Coast, we are the supplier, the recycler, the repair shop, and the delivery fleet. This vertical integration gives you several advantages:
- ✓No middlemen: you deal directly with the source, which eliminates markup layers.
- ✓Real-time inventory visibility: we know exactly what we have in stock and can confirm availability before scheduling delivery.
- ✓Combined services: we can pick up your used pallets and deliver fresh ones on the same truck, the same trip, cutting freight costs in half.
- ✓Quality control: the team that repairs and inspects your pallets is the same team that loads the truck. There is no handoff where quality can slip.
- ✓Faster response: when demand spikes unexpectedly, we pull from our own yard -- not a third-party warehouse 500 miles away.
Combined Pickup + Delivery
One of our most popular logistics arrangements is the swap route: our truck drops off a load of repaired or recycled pallets and picks up your accumulated empties on the same visit. This eliminates a separate pickup trip, reduces emissions, and keeps your dock cycling efficiently.
Seasonal & Surge Support
Holiday rushes, harvest seasons, and promotional events can double your pallet consumption overnight. We maintain buffer stock for our delivery accounts and can scale up shipments with as little as 24 to 48 hours notice. No long-term commitments required -- just tell us when you need more.
Delivery Tracking
Every delivery includes confirmation with estimated arrival windows. For recurring accounts, we provide consistent scheduling so your receiving team always knows when to expect our truck. Need proof of delivery? We provide signed delivery receipts for every drop.

JIT Delivery
Just-in-Time Delivery: How It Works
JIT delivery eliminates the need to stockpile pallets at your facility. We hold inventory earmarked for your account and deliver exactly when your production line or shipping schedule demands it.
Demand Forecast
We work with your operations team to understand weekly consumption patterns, seasonal peaks, and typical order cadence. This forecast determines the buffer stock we hold in reserve at our facility.
Inventory Earmarking
Based on your forecast, we earmark a designated quantity of pallets (type, size, grade) in our yard. This stock is set aside exclusively for your JIT orders and is not sold to other customers.
Trigger and Dispatch
When you need pallets, you trigger an order via phone, email, or our standing order system. Our team pulls your earmarked stock, loads the truck, and dispatches same-day or next-day depending on your service level.
Dock Delivery
Pallets arrive at your dock within the agreed window. Our driver confirms the count, obtains a delivery signature, and can pick up empty or damaged pallets on the same trip if you participate in our swap program.
Pallets you need to warehouse on-site. We store your inventory at our facility until you need it.
Dispatch available for orders placed before 10 AM. Next-day delivery guaranteed for all other JIT orders.
On-time delivery rate for our JIT program. We hold more buffer stock than forecast to absorb demand spikes.
Transport Best Practices
Protecting Pallets During Transport
Whether you are receiving a delivery from us or shipping palletized goods to your customers, proper transport practices prevent damage and ensure pallets arrive in the condition they left.
Stack Height Limits
For transport, pallets should not be stacked higher than 6 feet (approximately 15-18 pallets per stack depending on pallet thickness). Taller stacks shift during transit and increase the risk of toppling, which damages pallets and creates safety hazards during unloading.
Secure Loads Properly
All pallet loads on flatbed trucks must be secured with straps, chains, or banding. We use ratchet straps rated for 5,000 lbs working load limit, positioned at regular intervals to prevent shifting. Enclosed trailers benefit from load bars or dunnage to fill gaps.
Weather Protection
New pallets and heat-treated pallets should be transported in enclosed trailers or tarped flatbeds to prevent rain exposure. Wet pallets gain weight (increasing freight cost), and repeated wet-dry cycles cause warping, cupping, and premature decay.
Forklift Handling at Delivery
Use forklifts with properly spaced tines (typically 32-36 inches for GMA pallets). Ensure the operator enters squarely and lifts from the correct entry side. Angled entry is the number one cause of stringer damage during unloading.
Staging Area Preparation
Prepare a clean, level staging area at your receiving dock before delivery arrives. Pallets should be stored on a hard, dry surface -- not directly on dirt or grass, which accelerates moisture absorption and wood rot from below.
Inspect on Arrival
Count the delivery against the invoice and inspect a random sample of pallets for damage before signing the delivery receipt. If any pallets are damaged in transit, note it on the receipt so we can arrange replacement. Claims reported at delivery are resolved fastest.
Frequently Asked Questions
Delivery & Logistics FAQ
What does delivery cost?
Delivery pricing depends on distance, volume, and delivery method. For scheduled route deliveries, freight is often included in the per-pallet price. For dedicated or rush deliveries, freight is quoted separately. As a general rule, the more pallets you order and the closer you are to our routes, the lower the per-unit delivery cost. Contact us for a precise quote.
Can you deliver and pick up on the same trip?
Absolutely -- this is one of our most popular logistics arrangements. Our swap route service drops off fresh pallets and picks up your used or damaged pallets in a single visit. This eliminates a separate pickup trip, cuts freight costs, and simplifies your dock scheduling. Swap routes are available for all recurring delivery accounts.
What if I need a delivery outside your standard routes?
We can arrange dedicated deliveries to any location in Oregon, Washington, and Northern California, even if it is not on a standard route. Dedicated deliveries are priced as a separate freight charge based on distance and load size. For locations that regularly need off-route delivery, we may add a new route stop if volume justifies it.
Do you deliver to residential addresses or job sites?
Yes, with some considerations. Residential and job-site deliveries typically require a lift-gate truck since most of these locations lack a loading dock. We recommend ensuring a clear, level area for the truck to access and pallets to be placed. Contact us to confirm vehicle access before scheduling.
How do I track my delivery?
For all deliveries, you receive an estimated arrival window when the order is confirmed. On the day of delivery, our dispatch team can provide a more precise ETA. For recurring accounts, you receive consistent scheduling so your receiving team always knows when to expect our truck. Signed delivery receipts are provided for every drop.
