Frequently Asked Questions

What is a GMA 48x40 pallet?

A GMA pallet is the 48" x 40" industry standard defined by the Grocery Manufacturers Association. It's North America's most common pallet size, used in food & beverage, retail, and general distribution. The 48x40 standard ensures compatibility with virtually all warehouse racking systems and material handling equipment.

What's the difference between new and recycled GMA pallets in Shores?

New GMA pallets are freshly manufactured with no previous use. Recycled Grade A pallets are like-new with minimal cosmetic wear. Recycled Grade B pallets have visible wear but maintain full structural integrity. Recycled pallets typically cost 40-60% less than new. We inspect and repair all recycled pallets before delivery to Shores.

How many GMA pallets fit in a truckload delivery to Shores?

A standard 53' dry van trailer holds approximately 600-700 standard GMA pallets stacked flat (floor load), or 800+ pallets when staged. We deliver full truckloads, partial loads, and can arrange drop trailer service for continuous supply to your Shores, Florida facility.
