Why Work with an Asset-Based Pallet Provider

Reducing operating expenses, improving vendor partnerships, and implementing a resilient supply chain matter more than ever. As an asset-based pallet provider, we own all or most of the assets – warehouses, trucks, distribution centers, pallets – necessary to support a customer’s supply chain. This means we're particularly responsive to customers' needs and able to meet nearly any operational changes, quickly. We also provide the same high-quality pallets and service coast to coast.

Get to know what it's like to work with 48forty! Director of National Sales Kevin Coffey and Regional Director of Operations Lee Hunt discuss how an asset-based pallet provider can be responsive to customers’ needs, especially in times of high demand.

Building a Greener Supply Chain Together When you choose sustainable pallets for your supply chain, your business is helping to reduce negative impacts on the environment. Simple as that. Why Pallets for the Planet? This initiative raises awareness of sustainable supply chain practices, and how we can all work together to reduce negative impacts on the environment. In fact, using recycled pallets has a climate-positive effect on the planet by removing additional carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. It's all about recycling and reuse. Together, we can implement more sustainable practices that will help reduce waste and preserve resources for future generations to come. Sustainability at the Core As we look to the planet that future generations will inherit, it's essential that supply chains operate sustainably. Sustainability means meeting our own needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Put simply, what we do now will impact how we live later. At 48forty, we are committed to operating sustainably as well as helping our customers lower their carbon footprint, minimize waste, and achieve their sustainability goals in a cost-efficient manner. Our environmental priorities are: Reducing waste generated at our recycling plants every year. Reducing waste at our retail customer sites. Optimizing truck routes to reduce fuel consumption.
