Heavy-duty custom wood crates for industrial, aerospace, defense, and export shipments. Any size, any capacity. ISPM-15 certified for international shipping.
Custom wood crates provide maximum protection for high-value, heavy, fragile, or oversized shipments. Unlike standard pallets, wood crates fully enclose cargo on all six sides, protecting against moisture, impact, pilferage, and compression from stacked freight. Florida Pallet Supply builds custom wood crates and shipping boxes for businesses throughout Califon, New Jersey and Hunterdon County.
Our custom crate capabilities include: open-top crates, enclosed crates with lids, skidded crates with integral pallet base, ramp-access crates for rolling equipment, heat treated ISPM-15 certified crates for international export, shock-isolated crates with interior foam/blocking for sensitive equipment, and military-specification crates (MIL-SPEC).
Hunterdon County's pharmaceuticals (#1 state), port logistics, food processing, chemical manufacturing, biotech, cold chain, retail distrib sector drives significant custom crate demand - particularly for capital equipment, precision instruments, defense components, and high-value industrial goods.

A pallet is a flat platform that supports cargo from below. A crate fully encloses cargo on all sides, including top, bottom, and all four walls. Crates are used when cargo needs protection from weather, impact, compression, or theft - common for machinery, electronics, precision instruments, and high-value goods. We supply both pallets and crates to Califon businesses from the same operation.
