Florida Pallet Supply • Updated 2026-04-07
Sam's Club (Walmart subsidiary) and BJ's Wholesale Club are the #2 and #3 warehouse club retailers in the US after Costco. Both operate high-SKU, club-pack supply chains with strict pallet and labeling requirements. Suppliers need clean, compliant GMA pallets with precise labeling to avoid chargebacks at receiving.
Stamped kiln-dried pallet lumber, bulk warehouse stock, dimensional yard inventory, raw softwood logs, and sawmill operations - the supply chain behind every custom and standard pallet we ship.
Sam's Club follows Walmart's supply chain standards with club-specific modifications:
| Spec | Sam's Club Standard |
|---|---|
| Pallet Size | 48x40 GMA (primary); 40x40 accepted for specific categories |
| Condition | Grade A recycled or new - must pass Sam's Club receiving inspection |
| Max Height | 60" total (floor to product top) |
| Max Weight | 2,800 lb for GMA standard pallet |
| Stretch Wrap | Unitized with stretch wrap; corner boards recommended for club packs |
| Pallet Labels | GS1-128 Advance Ship Notice (ASN) labels required at pallet level |
| ISPM-15 | Required for international-origin products or any cross-border shipment |
