For pallet companies, the surge in demand for pallets over the past year has been exciting, but not without its challenges. The lack of raw material and labor to produce pallets has made it tough to meet client needs. Rising costs for nails, fasteners, and other components have driven up the price. And, most recently, ransomware attacks and a lack of qualified tanker truck drivers has led to fuel shortages, disrupting deliveries.
Pallet companies are finding ways to work around these obstacles. For example, to ensure available fuel and drivers for delivery, many are optimizing backhauls, limiting hauling activity, and temporarily halting returns of stray rental pallets.
