For long-term outdoor storage in Alabama's climate, we recommend kiln-dried or heat treated (ISPM-15) pallets - both resist moisture absorption and subsequent warping better than green lumber pallets. While pressure treatment (for ground contact) is not standard for pallets, kiln-dried wood significantly extends pallet life in outdoor Shelby County lumberyard environments.
