Looking for pallets in Minnesota? Gruber Pallets has been supplying businesses across the state with new, recycled, custom, and heat-treated pallets for over 40 years. Family-owned and operated from our facility in Lake Elmo, we deliver throughout the Twin Cities metro and beyond — with the pricing transparency and personal service that large national suppliers can't match.
New Pallets
We manufacture new wood pallets starting with lowest bulk pricing starting at $12 per pallet. Standard 48×40 GMA pallets are always in stock. Need a different size? We build to your specs. Every new pallet is constructed from quality lumber at our Lake Elmo facility off I-94, and we can add ISPM-15 heat treatment for international shipping compliance.
- 48×40 GMA pallets — industry standard, always available
- Stringer and block styles — both in stock
- Volume pricing — the more you order, the less you pay
- Fast turnaround — in-stock sizes ship within 1–2 business days
Recycled & Used Pallets
Recycled and used pallets are the most cost-effective option for businesses that need functional pallets without paying new-pallet prices. Every used pallet we sell is inspected and graded — you know exactly what you're getting. We sort by condition so you can choose the grade that fits your application and budget.
Used pallets work well for domestic shipping, warehousing, storage, and one-way shipments where you don't need the pallet back. Many Minnesota manufacturers and distributors use a mix of new and recycled pallets to optimize their pallet spend.
Custom Pallets
Standard sizes don't fit every product. Our custom pallet program builds pallets to your exact dimensions, weight capacity, and material requirements. Whether you need oversized pallets for machinery, lightweight pallets for air freight, or specialty designs for automated systems, we engineer and manufacture them in-house.
Custom pallets are available in any size, with options for hardwood or softwood construction, notched stringers, chamfered edges, and heat treatment. Typical turnaround: 3–5 business days from approved specs.
Heat Treated Pallets (ISPM-15)
If your business exports goods internationally, you need ISPM-15 certified heat treated pallets. We operate heat treatment kilns at our Lake Elmo facility and stamp every compliant pallet with the official IPPC mark. This is mandatory for shipping to Canada, Mexico, the EU, Asia, and virtually every other trading partner.
We heat treat new pallets, custom builds, and — in most cases — your existing pallets if they're structurally sound.
Pallet Recycling & Buyback
Have pallets stacking up at your dock? We offer pallet recycling and a buyback program that puts cash back in your pocket. We'll pick up your used pallets, sort them, and either refurbish them for resale or recycle the wood responsibly. It's better for your bottom line and better for the environment.
We provide pallet recycling services across Minnesota — not just the metro. If you're generating used pallets in volume, call us.

We keep pricing straightforward:
- New 48×40 pallets — lowest bulk pricing starts at $12 each
- Recycled pallets — significantly less than new, varies by grade and availability
- Custom pallets — quoted per spec, volume discounts standard
- Heat treatment — available as an add-on to any pallet order
