One Way Solutions – Our 21st Anniversary as Pallet Experts!

Plastic Pallet Experts for 21 Years

21 Years + Going Strong  

We are proud to announce that One Way Solutions has been in business for 21 years. As a third generation family run company, we pride ourselves on having a long and distinguished history as pallet experts serving all industries.

The knowledge and passion for pallets has been passed down over the decades in the Pigott family, and has now officially stood the test of time.

Things started back in the 1980’s, when the Pigott family was part of one of the very first plastic pallet companies called Nucon Corp.

During those early years, the Pigotts had to fight hard for proving the long term benefits and ROI of the plastic pallet, since it requires a higher upfront cost. (Did you know that plastic pallets can last 10 years or more, whereas wood pallets sometime only last one trip?)

Good thing they stuck with it. One Way was born in 2002 to serve the emerging needs of the material handling industry.

FUN FACT: we were founded at a time when new international regulations (later known as ISPM-15 regulations) would require wood export pallets to be either heat-treated or fumigated.

Who We Are + What We Stand For

Our team here at One Way takes a strong stance on providing companies like yours exceptional products, industry leading prices and outstanding customer service.

We know you have many options when it comes to pallets, and so we work hard to offer a variety of products that will suit your shipping and storage needs at the absolute best possible price.

Not only that, but if we don’t currently carry something you’re looking for, we will do the work to find it – or create it. That’s right, we even do custom pallets to your desired specifications.

We Strive To Make Service Our Strength

The core of our values has always been about relationships, and about connecting with people on a real level. No matter how many years we stay in business, we will never let it impact our commitment to offering the highest level of customer service out there.

You will always have a friendly face on the other side of the phone lines. (AKA no voicemail.)

You will always get the best possible price (we guarantee the lowest).

You will always have a team who is here to do the hard work for you.

So if you want to stop searching for a pallet partner who will be with you for the long haul, our team here at One Way is ready to step up and help you.

Can I Store Pallets Outside

Can I Store Pallets Outside

We get this question all the time:

Can I store pallets outside?

It’s a great question – and we’ve got the answers to help decide what works best for your warehouse.

Where To Store Those Pallets!

Storing empty pallets inside your warehouse, where space is precious, presents challenges.

Maybe you’re increasing inventory levels for your finished goods to get ready for your (hopefully) busy season?

Maybe you’re just running out of room in general?

If your storage equipment isn’t being used and is taking up limited space, you may be considering storing it outside, subjecting it to the elements.

Storing Pallets Outside

Storing Pallets Outside

But is this the right thing to do?

Great Question! The answer is not as straightforward as you might think –  but we can break down your decision points to help you find what works best for your situation.

The Greatest Advice For Storing Pallets Outside

First, let me share one of the best pieces of advice when you have no option but to store pallets outside – because sometimes you don’t have a choice!

FIFO – First In, First Out

Use a FIFO (First In First Out) material flow by moving pallets that have been outdoors for the longest period of time indoors and into your indoor production environment.

This way pallets that have been outdoors the longest get a break at the earliest opportunity.

Should You Store Pallets Outside?

Considerations

There are many decision points involved and factor to consider when assessing if storing pallets outdoors is a good solution for your material handling operation.

We’re going to focus on two important factors:

* Pallet Material
* Security

Pallet Material

A pallet’s material may make it more or less suited for outdoor storage. We’ll focus on wood pallets vs plastic pallets.

Storing Wood Pallets Outside

Storing wood pallets outside presents a unique set of challenges, especially in moist and rainy climates. Moisture can cause pallet boards to swell (displacing nails) and rot prematurely.

Rotten pallets can fail unexpectedly and may result in injuries, inventory damage, and operational inefficiency.

Rotting Wood Pallet

Rotting Wood Pallet

Using tarps to protect wood pallets from rain can help. However, care must be taken not to limit airflow that can otherwise trap moisture and prevent it from being carrier away from stored pallets.

If storing wood pallets outside is your only option, make sure to follow these simple tips:

* Elevate Wood Pallets from the ground to reduce moisture from wet surfaces
* Allow Proper Airflow by stacking pallets with sufficient space surrounding them
* Use a tarp to divert rain from contact with the wood pallets (but without limiting airflow)

Storing Plastic Pallets Outside – Works Pretty Well!

Generally speaking, plastic pallets are able to withstand much more exposure to the elements than wood pallets.

Over time, the sun’s rays can weaken the plastic material, but this is a slow process that can be drastically reduced with tarps and other placement strategies that limit pallet exposure to direct sunlight.

So generally speaking, plastic pallets are particularly well-suited for outdoor storage.

But there’s a catch – make sure the pallets are not made of ACM material. Pallets made from ACM material will lose some integrity when wet.

Security

Another important factor to consider when storing pallets outdoors is security. Like any asset, pallets can walk away on their own. So if you have to store them outside, it is ideal to do so in a fenced or gated area.

Why are 40 x 48 Inch Plastic Pallets our most Popular Size?

image Robin Kiefer image April 2, 2020

Let’s talk about size, and how it matters when it comes to pallets.

Dimensions can be a major determining factor when choosing the right pallet for product shipments and storage, so today we are focusing on our most highest volume 40 x 48 plastic pallets.

This standard size is super popular, even beyond our borders and is used in all of North America to help with material handling needs.

That’s because the 40 x 48 plastic pallet is made to International Organization for Standardization (ISO) recognized specifications (1219 mm x 1016mm).

This means it can be shipped across countries without issue.

Here’s something you might not know. The Grocery Manufacturers Association (GMA) influences the consumer packaged goods industry around the globe. They suggest standard pallet dimensions to be 48″ x 40″.

Pallets of that size are commonly referred to as GMA pallets. More than 30% of pallets produced in the U.S. each year are GMA pallets. Who knew!

Source: https://apexwarehousesystems.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Pallet-Graphic-v2.jpg

OK now, when it comes to the 40 x 48 plastic pallet, let’s talk numbers for a minute.

A standard pallet is 6 ½” tall. GMA pallets typically weigh 37 pounds (17 kg). The length of the pallet is measured by the stringer length, 48”.

Still with me?

A stringer is a board that runs the length of the pallet between the deck boards, holding the pallet up. The deck boards that are on the top and bottom of the stringers and run perpendicular to them measure 3 1⁄4 inches (83 mm) wide and are 5⁄16 inch (7.9 mm) thick each, and are 40 inches long.

Whew. And that’s how it all adds up for the common 40 x 48 plastic pallet.

The reason why it’s so common? Well, because it is very versatile. The applications are essentially endless for this size, both for product shipments and warehouse storage.

Yep, when it comes to racking pallets, the 40 x 48 is the perfect choice.

Size matters.

Selecting the correct pallet size is first and possibly most important decision point when selecting the proper plastic pallet for your warehouse or storage project.

Sea Containers are narrower than the width of a standard semi truck, so a specialized pallet with, like the 43 x 43 is needed to maximize capacity.

What Industries Use The 43 x 43 Pallet size?

Why Choose a 48 x 48 Plastic Pallet?

Here’s When to Consider a 48 x 48 Plastic Pallet

As you know by now, plastic pallets come in all shapes and sizes. Choosing one to fit your needs can be a real challenge. That’s why the Pallet Experts here at One Way Solutions are her to help.

Our popular 48 x 48 plastic pallet is a great option when you want a larger stackable base for your product. It provides more square unit inches for larger shipments than our smaller pallet sizes.

48 x 48 Drum Pallets

48 x 48 Pallets make excellent drum pallets. A 55 gallon drum, roughly 23″ in diameter, exceeds the standard 40″ x 48″ & 45″ x 48″ plastic pallet footprints when 4 drums (arranged in a 2 x 2 grid) are palletized.

The 46″ width of two drums hangs off the edge of a 45″ side of the pallet, creating an unstable and potentially unsafe situation.

48 x 48 sized pallets are also used for shipping 5 gallon drums.

We recommend doing the math on your current truckload capacity if the larger 48 x 48 plastic pallet size could make sense for future shipments.

Point Of Purchase Display Pallets (POP Pallets)

The 48 x 48 pallet size is also popular for modular Point Of Purchase Displays.

Nestable and Stackable 48 x 48 Plastic Pallets

The most common and affordable 48 x 48 plastic pallets are either our nestable or stackable plastic pallets with a solid deck.

Plastic Pallet Recycling – Pallet Expert FAQ

image Robin Kiefer image March 10, 2020

Plastic Pallet Recycling – The Purpose

Are you considering recycling your old plastic pallets? You should, and here’s why. 

As your stockpile of old pallets grows, it also grows in value. Once you have enough plastic pallets that fit a full truckload, it’s time to consider taking advantage of its scrap value. (We will explain more below.)

Remember, because many higher quality plastic pallets can be processed for recycling; and sometimes they can even be recycled for good $ to help your bottom line.

So why not gain a little knowledge in this area so you can take advantage of the opportunity?

As Benjamin Franklin said it, “An investment in knowledge always pays the best interest.”

Plastic Pallet Recycling - An Investment In Knowledge

Plastic Pallet Recycling – An Investment In Knowledge

We’ve got you on this one. Below we will walk you through the process of recycling plastic pallets and include the option to turn retired plastic pallets into savings.

Plastic Pallet Recycling – The Process

There are options when for recycling your plastic pallets. If you want to recycle PE pallets, contact your local recycle stream and make arrangements.

It’s not as hard as it sounds and they will walk you through their process for providing the pallets and take the stress off of you figuring out what to do with them.

Better yet, a local molder who produces regrind is a great option to get rid of your old pallet pile. (Don’t worry, a simple Google search can help you find one.)

Plastic Pallet Recycling - Search For Local Molders

Plastic Pallet Recycling – Search For Local Molders

The cool thing about the regrind process is that it makes the most of the plastic pallet resin. The resulting excess material and rejected parts can be reclaimed and repurposed as regrind (which is either mixed with new resin, or used on its own).

If you really want to get into the dirty details, there is a whole process when the plastic is exposed to thermal and mechanical stress, it becomes weak and brittle. This degradation is called “heat history.”

Both the heat history of processing, and the grinding process itself may degrade physical, chemical and flow properties of the thermoplastic resin, and anything made from the regrind. (Source: Unilever)

This is why we leave it to the experts to decide.

Will Molders Recycle Any Plastic Pallets?

No, they won’t. Because reground materials are intended for use in the manufacturing of new products, molders will not accept inferior plastics, or plastics whose condition will make it unprofitable to use in regrind.

For instance, used pallets may become imbedded with foreign objects during over their useful lifetime. objects like rocks or metal fragments make it difficult for molders to reuse.

In some cases, reground material may have to be floated in water to separate the useful materials from rocks and metal. That takes time and handling – and costs money.

Speaking of experts and the process of offloading old pallets for profits, there’s one more option.

If we are talking about a lot of pallets (a minimum of one truckload), they are pretty easy to SELL for regrind. This is where it gets good….

Plastic Pallet Recycling – The Profits

We are happy to mention that One Way has its own grinding operation. That’s right, we are here to help you not only help you recycle your old plastic pallets, but actually make money from it.

Because shipping is expensive, this is why you want to make sure you can ship them back in full truckload quantities.

Plastic Pallet Recycling - It Can Help Save Money

Plastic Pallet Recycling – It Can Help Save Money

Here’s what it looks like.

We will buy your truckload of plastic pallets back at scrap value minus then freight costs, and then give you a material credit.

It’s a no brainer.

This is the best option if you want to truly make use of your old stock pile of pallets and have it help your bottom line. Agreed?

Custom Logo Pallets

image Robin Kiefer image February 16, 2020

Custom Logo Pallets from One Way

OK party people, let’s get wild. This might sound crazy, but did you know you can get custom logo pallets from One Way Solutions?

It’s true. These babies can give your brand a big boost when shipping product to customers. Let’s talk shop for a sec.

What is a custom logo pallet?

A custom logo pallet is a pallet that has added branding to identify the owner.

The are 3 ways to add custom logos to plastic pallets:

  • Hot Stamp
  • Cold Stamp
  • Stickers

Hot Stamp

Hot stamp logs are created by inserting a logo die into the plastic pallet mold, creating a custom logo imprint on the pallet surface during the pallet molding process.

This is a superior option because the logo becomes part of the pallet and is hard to remove or damage – retaining your company logo to increasing branding and reduce theft. 

Cold Stamp

Cold Stamped logos are simply stamped on the pallet after it has been molded. This can be a more versatile option because it can be added to an existing pallet inventory without the need for a special production run of molded pallets.

Because cold stamping requires less setup during production, it is a less costly option.

Pallet Stickers

Adhesive back stickers displaying a custom logo can also be applied to the pallet surface.

This is the least expensive option for adding a custom logo to pallets, but the sticker can be more easily damaged.

How Do I Decide Which Custom Logo Pallet option is Best?

When considering logo options, think about how you would like the logo to appear visually, the costs involved, and the importance of making sure the logo is easily identifiable on the pallet itself.

What’s the benefit of custom logo pallets?

So now let’s talk about why you should order custom logo pallets for your company. The biggest benefit is branding. The more you keep your company name in front of customers, the more you stay ingrained in their mind. Simple touches like a branded pallet can really stand out when your product is being seen amongst many competitors. Especially in a crowded marketplace, any chance you can to stay front and center the better!

Another powerful benefit is that branding your pallets discourages theft and reduces inventory shrinkage. When your logo is placed right on the pallet, it’s less likely someone will want it so you can maintain better inventory levels.

How do you receive a quote for a custom logo pallet?

Sounds like we’ve convinced you to consider ordering some custom logo pallets. Cool! The next step is to send us your vector based artwork. Then we can provide you a basic drawing that shows logo position. If you want to include multiple elements, we can determine the best placement on the pallet for each.

What else to know about ordering custom logo pallets?

This shouldn’t come as a surprise but there are a few things to know about this type of order:

  • Increases the lead time for production
  • Adds to the pallet price (custom quote provided)
  • Non-returnable once order is placed (because, well no one quite appreciates your logo as much as you do)

All things considered…ordering custom logo pallets can be a great way to get your name out there when shipping product around the country (or world).

If you want to talk next steps, reach out so we can prepare a quote.

What Type of Experience and Education Should a Pallet Expert Have?

Ideally you can find a pallet expert that has extensive experience in the industry. For us, we’re a third generation material handling business, as Brian and Andy’s family have been pioneers in the pallet industry. This type of expertise comes across in all areas of service here at One Way. 

When choosing which pallet expert to work with, you should also consider the type of education they have. While many backgrounds can be of benefit to the pallet business, including anything in logistics and supply chain management, Brian’s education is able to offer something different than most.

With an engineering and design background, Brian has a deep level of knowledge on the specifications that play such an important role in deciding the right type of pallets.
