Reach out by phone, email, or our online form. Tell us what you need — whether you are buying, selling, recycling, or looking for a full management program. We respond to every inquiry within 24 hours.
Receive a Custom Quote
We assess your requirements — volume, grade, size, delivery schedule — and provide a transparent, no-obligation quote. No hidden fees, no surprises. Volume discounts are applied automatically for orders over 200 units.
We Pick Up or Deliver
Our fleet handles all logistics. Buying pallets? We deliver to your dock on your schedule. Selling or recycling? We send a truck to pick them up — free for qualifying volumes. Same-week service across the Bay Area.
Quality Inspection & Processing
Every pallet passes our rigorous 12-point inspection. Pallets are sorted by grade, repaired if needed, heat-treated for export orders, and prepared to meet your exact specifications before delivery.
Ongoing Partnership
We do not just fill a one-time order and disappear. Most of our clients work with us on recurring schedules — weekly deliveries, monthly pickups, buyback programs, and inventory management that adapts as your business grows.

The Oakland Difference
Why Businesses Choose Us
Hundreds of Bay Area businesses trust Oakland Pallets. Here is what keeps them coming back.
Radically Sustainable
Every pallet we handle is diverted from a landfill. We maintain a 97% material recovery rate — one of the highest in the industry. Wood becomes repaired pallets, salvaged boards, mulch, or biomass fuel. Metal gets recycled. Nothing is wasted.
Quality Guaranteed
Our rigorous 12-point inspection ensures every pallet meets or exceeds industry standards. We check structural integrity, board condition, dimensions, nail placement, and moisture content. No surprises, no subpar product — guaranteed.
Competitive Pricing
Used pallets at 40 to 60 percent below new pallet cost. Volume discounts kick in at 200 units, with flexible payment terms available for established accounts. Transparent quotes with no hidden fees — ever.
Fast Turnaround
Same-week delivery across the entire Bay Area and Northern California. Large orders fulfilled within 48 hours from our G Street facility. Emergency rush orders available for urgent needs at competitive rates.
Own Fleet & Logistics
We are not dependent on third-party carriers. Our own fleet of flatbed trucks runs daily routes, giving us full control over pickup and delivery schedules. That means consistent on-time performance and the flexibility to handle last-minute requests.

Client Stories
What Our Clients Say
Do not just take our word for it. Here is what real businesses have to say about working with Oakland Pallets.
“We switched to Oakland Pallets two years ago and have not looked back. Their Grade B pallets perform identically to the new ones we were buying at nearly double the price. The scheduled weekly delivery means we never run short, and the buyback program on our outgoing pallets offsets a solid chunk of our spend. They have genuinely become an extension of our logistics team.”
“What sets Oakland Pallets apart is the consistency. In this industry you learn to expect variability with recycled product, but their 12-point inspection process is no joke. Every pallet that arrives at our dock is within spec, structurally sound, and ready to go. Their turnaround on heat treatment for our export orders has saved us from customs headaches multiple times.”
“We had a mountain of surplus pallets taking up half our yard and no plan for dealing with them. Oakland Pallets came out, assessed the lot, gave us a fair buyback price on the spot, and had a truck there the next morning. Now we are on a monthly pickup schedule and the pallet pile is a thing of the past. Great people, straightforward business.”
