Comprehensive Wood Solutions

Providing Pallet Solutions for
the American Midwest Since 1975

With five decades of experience under our belt, we offer more than standard, pre-cut wooden pallets. At Base & Board, we’ve established ourselves as one of the leading providers of storage and supply chain solutions in the Midwest by being innovative and collaborating with our clients to meet their unique challenges head-on.

Our wood pallets, crates, and bins are robust, allowing for easy and safe handling even under heavy loads and extreme weather conditions.

OUR PRODUCTS

Used pallets are a smart and cost-effective option for customers who prioritize savings over pristine appearance. We maintain a consistent supply of both A and B grade pallets, each inspected for structural integrity before distribution. While these pallets may show signs of wear, such as scuffs, discoloration, or splintered edges, they remain fully functional and reliable for one-way shipments, warehouse use, or applications where appearance is not a priority. If you are looking for value and performance without paying for cosmetic perfection, used pallets are your best bet.

New pallets are ideal for customers who prioritize consistency, durability, and presentation. These units are freshly manufactured using precision equipment to meet common industry standards and quality expectations. Perfect for businesses that cannot risk inconsistency or performance issues, new pallets offer uniform sizing, premium material quality, and dependable performance across logistics and supply chain operations.

Custom pallets are tailored for customers with specific logistics needs and a clear understanding of pallet optimization. Whether you require unique dimensions, increased load-bearing capacity, or specialized features such as four-way entry or heat treatment, our team can engineer a solution that helps streamline your operations and reduce total supply chain costs. Custom designs give you the flexibility to balance efficiency, safety, and cost effectiveness in ways that standard pallets cannot match.

What Our Clients Say About Us

Penny Schaefer

“This is a great source of hardwood ends for your outdoor fireplace or chiminea as the fall weather starts to turn chilly outside. You can get a whole pickup truckload for only $20! They are not treated so safe to burn without worrying about toxicity.”
