NWH Pallet Team
We asked our customers what we could do to improve our performance. After listening to their responses, we developed our “pallet team,” a combination of sales and customer service. We focus on value by providing our customers with current market information and full-time sales and customer service.
Transportation
A sale may start with the order, but it’s not complete until you receive your load, in your yard, on time. That’s the mission of our in-house pallet transportation specialist, who works every day to make sure you receive products when you want them and in the most efficient manner. Three of our alder facilities are located on the Union Pacific and/or Burlington Northern rail lines and have truck-loading capabilities as well, which means we have transportation options available to suit every need.

We're serious about sustainability
CARING FOR OUR PLANET
Legal, Sustainable, Abundant Resource
North American Hardwoods are among the most plentiful and well-managed natural resources in the world. Hardwood forests naturally regenerate themselves and do not require planting. The preferred method of harvesting is single-tree selection. This provides a sustainable supply and ensures the overall health of the forest – including water quality, wildlife habitat, and biodiversity. As a result, the volume of hardwoods has more than doubled since 1950.
