48forty’s Promise: Making the Season Bright

We’d like to share our company values, which are especially relevant during the holidays.



December is such a hectic month for those in retail and wholesale industries, it’s easy to forget it’s the holiday season. While everyone else is shopping and going to parties, many of our customers are busy making sure shoppers can find what they need for holiday celebrations by keeping stores stocked and supply chains running smoothly. You are truly the unsung heroes of the holidays!

The Houston Team gets in the holiday spirit.

That’s why all of us at 48forty want you know we have your back and are committed to making your season bright. Not just in December, but throughout the year.

To underscore our commitment to you, we’d like to share our company values, which are especially relevant during the holidays.

1) We put you, our customer first, always.

Our customers are the heart of our business; everything we do is in service to you. That’s why you can always reach 48forty when you need us. Even though 48forty is a national company, we are decidedly local and our 40 owned and 180 affiliate facilities across the country welcome your calls. We have drivers, tractors, and trailers available 24/7 to deliver pallets or retrieve cores. And thanks to our online customer portal, PalTrax™, you can place orders and access important data related to your account anytime, anywhere.

2) We act with integrity.

We emphasize safety in all that we do, and we treat our people, our partners, and our planet with honesty and respect. At 48 forty, integrity is not a word, it’s how we run our business and conduct ourselves in our daily lives.

[The right supplier is based on your needs and how well the supplier's capabilities align. Get the full guide on how to select the right supplier here.]

3) We think creatively and act courageously.

We recognize life isn’t perfect and when our customers have a challenging situation, we’re not afraid to think creatively to find the best solution. We also dare to be better tomorrow than we are today, which fuels our passion for always providing you with the best pallet solutions.

4) We have the will to win.

The entire 48forty team has the winning spirit. From the repair tables and loading docks in our facilities to the tractors that crisscross our country to the desktops and conference tables that keep our operations working smoothly, our entrepreneurial spirit drives us to work harder, smarter and better so that our customers and our team win.

[It's important to have a clear understanding of your pallet needs. There's a lot to consider before making any substantive changes. Get the full guide on how to improve your pallet performance here.]

To all of our customers, we thank you for your business in 2018. We look forward to making 2019 an even brighter, more prosperous year for all. Happy Holidays!
