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.

Used Wooden 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.

Bruce Willis wants MORE PALLETS!

The Surrogates movie is filming up a storm in Worcester, MA and in Hopedale, MA. Representatives from Surrogate Productions contacted Pallet World of New England for more pallets.

They need the wooden pallet products in a rush, and we were able to supply plywood pieces and we made specialty wooden bins for the movie set as well. Pallet World delivered to the film set in Hopedale, MA last week.


We hope that Bruce Willis enjoys his time in Massachusetts and we hope that Surrogate Productions is happy with our wooden pallets, wooden bins, and plywood.

Correction: Draper Building Post in Hopedale, MA

Thank you everyone for your recent posts about the history of the Draper Building. I would especially like to thank ILIVEINHOPEDALE for your link to the Draper family and all of the factoids of the Draper Building. Every town has an amazing past and the Draper family has been well documented. For more info on the Draper Building and the Draper family, go to: http://www.geocities.com/daninhopedale/drapermenu

This site shows pictures of the Draper Looms, marriage notices, letters from the Draper family, and a great article about hiring women and girls to work in the factory. It is amazing how much history Massachusetts has, and the Surrogates Movie is the only reason I was able to find out about the Draper Building. I hope the film construction and activity do not ruin any of the grounds. It is too bad that the glass company has not bought the building. I hate seeing these buildings go to disrepair and not being used. I visit Lowell often, and some of the their old mills are just destroyed. Fires have destroyed alot of the mills lately. Alot of the mills in Lowell have been converted into apartments and condos, which is nice. I of course love the Lowell Brewery, which is in a small mill. The brewery is currently being converted into a Lowell Beer Works. They open in June!

Anyway...anyone try and be an extra yet?

Bruce Willis Film - Pallets Delivered to the Set

Google searches for Bruce Willis filming in Hopedale, MAare tripling this week. It appears the film the Surrogates is filming up a storm in Worcester, MA and Hopedale, MA. The Surrogates movie is a sci-fi thrliller starring Bruce Willis and Ving Rhames and is about a future filled with humans that never leave their homes and robots that are suddenly murdered. Bruce Willis stars as a cop that must leave isolation and investigate the murders.

Filming has already begun in Hopedale, MA at the famed Draper Mill Cotton Plant. Draper Mill is a fantastic location to film at and at one time was the most productive cotton plant in the world. The Surrogate Production Company asked us to provide wooden pallets for this location. They requested that the pallets be used and in fairly bad condition. Perhaps this Bruce Willis movie will have an apocalyptic twist with old factories and mills showing what life used to be like before the Surrogates/robots came.

Today Pallet World of New England delivered 450 pallets to the film set starring Bruce Willis. According to our pallet driver, the old Draper Mill is huge and the property in Hopedale, MA is buzzing with activity. Next to the existing Draper Mill Buildings, a new building is being erected. We are not if it is for the movie set, or for future use of a glass company that has recently bought the Draper Mills property. Needless to say, Hopedale and Worcester residents must be having movie star sightings of Bruce Willis or Ving Rhames as Google searches for these stars has increased over the past week. We are very happy that Surrogate Productions chose Pallet World of New England to supply wooden pallets for their set. We hope that filming is going well, and if they need more used wooden pallets for their futuristic film set, Pallet World will be happy to supply more pallets at a moments notice.
