Family Owned and Operated
Ken Yoder has been in the pallet industry since 1990 and has successfully managed several companies.
Yoder Pallet Company began in Points WV in 2008 with one small saw, a few nail guns, and a portable air compressor. At first, there were only two employees, Ken’s 17-year-old son Keith and a friend from CA who had experience in the pallet industry.
Our Points location, founded in 2008, is where our company began and where the main office is located. This facility operates two high-speed cut-up lines, a specialty bandsaw line, and multiple automated nailing machines. It also has divisions for building specialty pallets and crates and recycling used pallets. With 60,000 sq ft under its roof and a skilled team of over 25 employees, this location has a capacity for up to 40 pallet loads per week.
In 2014 Yoder Pallet Company acquired its location in Swanton MD, previously known as "Silver Knob Pallet," which is equipped with a scragg mill, gangsaw/notcher line, and a recently acquired automated Viking nailer. This location can produce 15-18 weekly loads. With a dedicated team of 15 employees, we ensure smooth and efficient operations at our Swanton facility.
In 2024, Yoder Pallet Company expanded its operations with the acquisition of a third location in Cincinnati, IA. This facility operates a kiln, a gang saw/notcher line, and an automated Viking nailer, with a dedicated team and the capacity to produce 15 loads per week.
