What sets apart the stringer pallet is the top and bottom deck that it provides. The name comes from the stringers that run in between the decks. Our sturdy stringer pallet will support the load - even multiple loads or trips! The use of a forklift will easily transport your goods from point A to point B, allowing your machine to enter the pallet in a 2 or 4-way. Notches in the stringer pallet grant the forklift access in all different directions.

What is a Stringer on the Pallet?

The words stringer and runners are used interchangeably to describe the boards sandwiched between the two decks. As the top and bottom decks run width-wise, the stringers run perpendicular to them. Madison County Wood Products manufactures the stringers to be 2 x 4'. Overall, the runners reinforce the structure of the pallet.
