Grade B Pallets - #2 Pallets

To Purchase Grade B Pallets or # 2 Pallets:
Call Jim Ruma
(617)389-8090

Ruma Pallet World of New England
210 Beacham St
Everett, MA 02149


We have thousands of Grade B Pallets in stock every day and can furnish a pick up load (Quantity of 294 pallets or 588 pallets) for you and your company at a moments notice. Last week, I emphasized the benefits of Grade A Pallet also known as #1 Pallets. Today, I want to discuss Grade B Pallets also known as #2 Pallets. The best benefit in choosing a Grade B pallet or a #2 Pallet is the cost. A company can reduce overhead considerably by choosing to stack product and ship product on a Grade B pallet or a #2 pallet. Some customers are not required to use a Grade A pallet, and therefore are not fussy about needing a stronger pallet. Grade B Pallets are perfect for smaller companies that have been hit hard by the rising fuel prices and they can save anywhere for $0.25 to $2 per pallet. For a full truckload of 588 pallets in a 53' trailer that money adds up very quickly. Grade B pallets and #2 pallets are just as viable as their Grade A Pallet counterparts, but they tend to have been refurbished with recycled wood rather than new wood used for broken pallet boards. We have thousands of Grade B Pallets in stock every day and can furnish a pick up load for you and your company at a moments notice.

Grade A Pallets - #1Pallets

To Purchase Grade A Pallets or # 1 Pallets:
Call Jim Ruma
(617)389-8090

Ruma Pallet World of New England
210 Beacham St
Everett, MA 02149


Certain companies, stores, and clubs are required to use only Grade A Pallets. They are also referred to as #1 Pallets. Ruma Pallet World of New England supplies and sells Grade A Pallets to area companies in Massachusetts, Maine, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, Vermont, and New Jersey. For safety reasons, Grade A Pallets or #1 Pallets are the best option for stores and clubs with stacks of product. A wholesale club like Costco or BJ's needs a sturdy, heavy duty pallet. Grade A pallets or #1 pallets are perfect for these clients, because the pallets are in direct contact with their customers. The other grade of pallet is called a Grade B Pallet also referred to as #2 Pallets. #2 pallets are for customers and clients that are not picky or fussy about the pallet grade. Most clients that purchase Grade B Pallets are storing their product away from the general public and are not required to use a Grade A pallet or #1 pallet.

Our #1 Pallets are standard 48 x 40 GMA pallets. All lead boards are 5" and the top and bottom are usually brand new. This GMA standard allows for a sturdy pallet for our clients that are looking to ensure safety for warehouse personnel and the general public.

We Recycle Wooden Pallets

Pallet World offers company pallet clean outs of your warehouse and property. Pallet World will remove all pallets from your warehouse, and haul them away. We provide this service for a minimal pallet charge. Our pallet trailers will be dropped off at your location and we wait for you to fill the trailer with your unwanted pallets. When the pallet trailer is full, give us a call at 617-389-8090 and we will arrange to pick up the full pallet trailer and provide you with a new empty one. Some companies may fill up these pallet trailers rather quickly, and may need pallet trailer exchanges every few days or every week.

Once we haul your unwanted pallets, we recycle the wood and refurbish the pallets that can be used again. We re-use the wood from the pallet clean outs to rebuild pallets or to make new ones. for those unwanted pallets and boards that cannot be re-used, we set them aside for firewood. We offer free firewood as a courtesy to our area residents. We want to keep our our trash output down and make sure that we find proper uses for every pallet material that enters our warehouse.

Chep Pallets

Do you have Chep Pallets and don't know what to do with them? Well bring your Chep Pallets over to our warehouse.

Everett, MA 02149

Chep Pallets are also referred to as Blue Pallets. A Chep Pallet can be used over and over again and you may get several years use out of a Chep Pallet. A regular pallet may receive only 1 - 3 uses, but with a chep pallet you receive much more.

Ruma Pallet World has been a Chep Pallet Depot for several years. We take all Chep Pallets and return them to Chep. Not everyone has the time or truck capacity to return Chep Pallets, so Pallet World is here to do that for you. If you need a pick up for your Chep Pallets, call Mark Ruma at 617-389-8090.

Exporting Heat Treated Wooden Pallets

Everyday, I have tried to blog about different types of pallets. Today I will be blogging about Heat Treated Pallets. Ruma's Pallet World can heat treat any size pallet. The heat treating pallet process is common at Pallet World as we have many clients that use heat treated pallets. If a client is exporting products on pallets, all of the pallets going outside of the United States must comply with exporting standards. This includes but is not limited to heat treating the pallets that their product is shipped on. One of the great benefits of heat treated pallets is that they tend to be insect free. At Ruma Pallet World of New England, we make sure that every heat treated pallet that leaves our warehouse has our Heat Treated stamp to show that each and every pallet has been heat treated to comply with US exporting standards. If you are an exporter in need of heat treated pallets, Pallet World can quote you on any size. Have an awkward size pallet? Need some extra customization? Need more pallet boards? Need pallet racks? Send us your pallet specs and we will create a sample pallet for you to examine. If you are satisfied with the specs, we will begin making your custom pallet size and heat treating them to US specifications for exporting your products.

Call 617-389-8090 .
and talk to Jim Ruma
for more information
and a Heat Treated Pallet Quote.

Exporting Heat Treated Pallets are just a phone call away.

Plastic Pallets

Yesterday we stressed the benefits of wooden pallets versus new pallets. Today, I want to talk to you about plastic pallets. Ruma's Pallet World of New England is a plastic pallet depot as well as a plastic pallet recycler. Plastic pallets tend to be used more in Europe than in the US and the rest of the world. (According to Wikipedia) Plastic Pallets have some great benefits that could be of use to some manufacturers. Plastic Pallets are easier to clean and sanitize, they tend not to carry odors, and they are weigh less than the traditional wooden pallet or skid. We have several customers that enjoy using our plastic pallets. Our plastic skids save on transportation costs, which allows our pallet customers to ship plastic pallets as freight to any location within the United States and Canada.

Refurbished Pallets

There are many types of pallets in the world, but the most common cost-effective pallet is the refurbished wooden pallet. Whether you are a large company ordering a full truck load of 588 pallets in a standard size of 48 x 40 or if you are a homeowner who needs 10 pallets for your basement, refurbished pallets are the way to go.

Refurbished pallets are used pallets that arrive at our pallet company with a few boards missing or they need nails replaced in order to comply with our pallet standards. We take pride in our refurbished pallets and we have a team of pallet repairers trained to recognize which pallets can be repaired and which ones cannot.

Pallet World has a steady stream of used pallets that enter our Massachusetts warehouse and we are a great source of refurbished pallets in the Metro Boston area.

New pallets are great for those companies that are transporting food or specialty items that have strict transport restrictions. However if you are manufacturing and transporting items that do not require new pallets, then Ruma's Pallet World of New England highly recommends refurbished pallets.
