What Troymill Provides for Federal and Defense Buyers
Wood packaging and material supply that reduces risk in high-stakes logistics
Federal and military shipments often require tighter standards around consistency, documentation, and delivery reliability. Troymill’s approach is built around repeatable production, clear specs, and responsive quoting so your team can move quickly without surprises.
Core capabilities
- New pallet manufacturing (48×40 and other common footprints)
- Custom pallets built to spec (dimensions, materials, stringer/block style, deck configuration)
- Heavy-duty/oversized pallets (when your shipment demands higher durability)
- Shipping crates for equipment, components, and protected freight (built to your spec)
- Lumber and cut-to-size wood components to support crating, packaging, and on-site build needs
- Heat-treated wood packaging when required (based on shipment needs and destination requirements)
- Large-order production + repeat ordering for ongoing programs
Pallets vs Crates vs Lumber: How to Choose What You Need
Not every shipment needs the same packaging approach. Troymill helps federal and defense buyers match the right solution to the mission:
- Pallets are ideal when load stability, forklift handling, and repeat throughput matter most.
- Crates are the best fit when you need additional protection, enclosed shipping, or equipment-level safeguarding.
Lumber/components are useful when you have a field build requirement, need a custom packaging configuration, or are supporting a program that assembles packaging on-site.
Compliance and Standards Support
Requirements vary by agency, contract, and destination. Troymill manufactures to your stated specifications and supports documentation needs as applicable—helping you avoid delays caused by packaging misalignment or missing shipment details. Troymill manufactures to your documented requirements, including:
- Build-to-spec manufacturing (dimensions, materials, configuration, performance expectations)
- Heat treatment requirements (when the shipment requires it)
- Documentation expectations (order traceability, purchase documentation, and BOL/shipment paperwork as applicable)
Note: Standards and requirements vary by agency, contract, and destination. Troymill’s role is to manufacture to your stated requirements and help you avoid delays caused by misalignment of specs or documentation.
