Wholesale Hardwood Lumber Containers
We ship wholesale container loads exotic hardwood products such as decking, flooring, deck tiles, and cabinet grade lumber directly from our company owned mill in Brazil to various countries throughout the world. We can load 20’ or 40’ container loads at our facility and our logistics team can handle the entire freight process. The volume that we can load into a 40’ container can vary depending on the weight limitations of the destination country. We can also load 20’ containers, but keep in mind that you can only fit 19’ lengths inside a 20’ container. The chart below shows some typical volumes that we load into 40’ containers.
Depending your region, decking as with most of our hardwood lumber products, is typically sold by different measurement systems/scales. SAE versus Metric for your convenience we have provided both sizing charts below which represent our standard decking size. Naturally since we are the mill custom sizing is also available upon request.
