Recycled 48x40 Block Pallets | Grade A 4-Way

A 48x40 CHEP pallet is a pooled, leased wood pallet owned by CHEP (Commonwealth Handling Equipment Pool) and identifiable by its distinctive blue color. Companies rent these pallets for shipping rather than purchasing them outright. They differ from standard purchased Grade A recycled block pallets, which customers own outright after buying.

Grade A recycled pallets have been inspected, repaired, and remanufactured to meet high structural standards. They feature intact boards, secure fasteners, and minimal damage, making them nearly comparable to new pallets in strength and appearance while costing significantly less than purchasing new inventory.

A 4-way entry block pallet allows forklifts and pallet jacks to enter from all four sides rather than just two, thanks to its block-style construction. This design improves handling flexibility in warehouses, reduces loading time, and is widely preferred for high-volume shipping and distribution operations.

Grade A recycled and remanufactured pallets undergo thorough inspection and repair, replacing damaged boards and reinforcing weak points to restore load-bearing strength. While material composition may include reused wood, proper remanufacturing ensures these pallets safely support standard warehouse and shipping loads comparable to new pallets.
