The onset of fall brings with it not only colder temperatures and the end of long summer days, but also an increased movement of goods, as many of our favorite holidays drive up sales of commodities and consumer products, the first of these being halloween! Behind the scenes of the emergence of spooky fall harvest/ halloween yard decorations of skeletons, ghouls, and gourds, and the store instillations producing those sweet tooth cravings that last the remainder of the year, comes the transport of the goods that make the celebration of this holiday possible. For example, each year in the United States in preparation for the halloween holiday, almost 1 billion gourds and pumpkins are grown almost solely for the celebration of this holiday alone. Some 600 million pounds of candy is also sold by retailers and handed out in neighborhoods and community celebrations across the country in celebration of this holiday, an estimated 1400 truckloads at full capacity. Our durable plastic pallets, plastic pallet containers, and totes, amongst other material handling products are utilized to transfer these goods from farms and factories to human beings for their consumption and pleasure, whether they be dressed as werewolf, witch, wizard, or superhero and beyond. When considering your warehouse supply needs in the holidays ahead, remember to check our website, and social media pages to see our supply of new and used products to help your business make these holidays special for us all. Pictured below is an orange plastic pallet with a 6,600 pound weight capacity, which is a whole lot of candy! Happy Halloween from Warehouse Supplies Online, and we look forward to interacting with you through the onset of the coming holidays throughout this season!
