Malvaes is a Chicago-based pallet and recycling partner servicing businesses throughout the Midwest. We sell new, used, and custom wooden pallets — and we go further, with full-service recycling, transportation, disposal, and product destruction under one roof.
New, used, and custom wooden pallets — GMA spec, food-grade, heat-treated, or built to your dimensions.

Explore the programMost pallet companies stop at the pallet. We don't. After we've earned your business on quality and price, we help you handle everything else on the dock — cardboard, plastic, metal, transportation, and disposal.
Every kind of pallet, plus the program to manage them. New, used, and custom-built pallets — paired with our Pallet Management Program for supply, retrieval, and buyback as one ongoing relationship.
Cardboard, metal, and plastic recycling for high-volume generators. Sorted, baled, weighed, and paid — gaining value from your waste, pulled from your dock on the same routes that deliver your pallets.
Our trucks, our drivers, our schedule. Reliable pickup and delivery throughout Chicagoland and across the Midwest — including same-day calls when your dock can't wait.
Responsible end-of-life material removal and certified destruction of obsolete, recalled, or off-spec product — diverting from landfill wherever possible, with documented chain of custody for compliance.
Every service above — pallets, recycling, transportation, disposal, and destruction — handled by one accountable team, on one invoice. And when another vendor lets you down — a no-show pickup, a missed delivery, a deadline that can't wait — we're the emergency call that answers. Quick-reaction service is built into how we operate.
Sustainability isn't a side initiative at Malvaes — it's the foundation of how we operate. Every pallet repaired, every cardboard bale, every pound of plastic and metal recovered means material diverted from the landfill and kept in productive service. Through landfill diversion, responsible recycling, and resource recovery, we're doing our part to protect the environment and contribute to the going-green commitment our customers and communities share.
From single-load purchases to ongoing closed-loop programs, supply chain leaders use Malvaes to lower costs, recapture value from waste streams, and add resilience to their operations.
Malvaes has been serving the Chicagoland pallet and recycling market since 2009. For nearly two decades, every customer we've added has come to us through a referral — never an ad, never a cold call.
That kind of growth doesn't happen by accident. It happens when you show up on time, when the count is right, when the pallets are clean, and when you say yes to the harder asks — the same-day pickup, the custom build, the secure destruction job nobody else wants to handle.
Today we're investing in regional and national reach so more shippers, warehouses, and retailers can put that same standard behind their businesses.
Whether you need a single load of pallets or an ongoing recycling and logistics relationship, getting started looks the same.
Pallet specs, volume, frequency, and any recycling or hauling needs.
Transparent pricing — no surprise fuel surcharges or hidden minimums.
Our trucks, our drivers, on a window that fits your operation.
Standing routes, buybacks, and added services as your needs grow.
