AI for pallet companies
AI that takes busywork off your yard office.
Quote requests, pickup scheduling, spec questions, invoices and follow-ups eat hours every day. We put AI to work on the repetitive parts so your team spends its time on customers and production — not retyping emails into spreadsheets.
Built for
- Yards drowning in quote requests
- Recyclers coordinating many pickups
- Manufacturers quoting custom pallets
- Brokers managing many suppliers
Sound familiar?
Quotes take too long
Every RFQ means digging out a spec, pricing lumber, checking capacity and writing an email. Slow quotes lose orders.
The inbox and phone never stop
Pickup requests, "do you have 48x40s?" calls and vendor emails all land on the same two people.
Information lives in people's heads
Specs, customer preferences and pricing history aren't written down anywhere a new hire — or a computer — can use them.
What we do
AI for Pallet Yards, done for you.
Every engagement is scoped to your yard, your service area and your customers — no generic packages.
AI quoting and RFQ responses
Turn an emailed request or drawing into a draft spec sheet, price and reply for your approval, using your lumber costs and margins.
Inbox and request triage
Incoming emails and web forms sorted into pickups, orders, quotes and vendor mail, with the key details extracted and routed to the right person.
Customer-facing assistants
A website assistant that answers product, grade and service-area questions accurately and books pickups or captures quote requests.
Back-office automation
Invoice and bill-of-lading data entry, order confirmations, follow-up reminders and reporting, connected to the tools you already use.
Team training
Short, practical sessions so your staff know what the tools do, where to check their work, and how to get the most from them.
How it works
- Step 1
Find the hours
We sit with your office and yard to map where time actually goes and which tasks are repetitive enough to automate.
- Step 2
Pilot one workflow
We automate the single highest-value task first — usually quoting or inbox triage — and measure the time saved.
- Step 3
Expand
Once the pilot proves itself, we connect more workflows and systems.
- Step 4
Support
Ongoing monitoring, improvements and help when your process changes.
Questions
- Does AI make decisions on its own?
- Only where you want it to. Most pallet companies start with AI drafting quotes and replies that a person approves before anything goes out.
- Do we need new software?
- Usually not. We connect to your email, phone system, spreadsheets, accounting software or CRM. If you need a CRM, we can set one up too.
- Is our pricing and customer data safe?
- We use business AI services that don't train on your data, keep access limited to what each workflow needs, and document where information goes.
- How quickly can we see results?
- A focused pilot such as quote drafting or inbox triage is typically live within a few weeks.

CRM for Pallet Yards
Pallet businesses juggle buy-side and sell-side relationships — companies you pick up from, customers you sell to, often the same account. We set up a CRM around that reality, so quotes, pickups, recurring orders and follow-ups stop living in inboxes and notebooks.
Technology Buildouts
When off-the-shelf software doesn't fit the way your yard works, we build what does — customer portals, pickup and inventory tracking, quoting tools, driver apps and the integrations that tie them together. We built the Pallet Union platform the same way.
Technology Consulting
Inventory spreadsheets, a paper pickup log, accounting software from 2009 and three different ways of quoting. We help pallet companies decide what to fix first, which software is worth buying, and what should be built — without the jargon or the vendor sales pitch.
