Well,... it's more of a 'contract' issue than anything else. There are pallet builders out there, most of the MTBs use one or several of them. The problem becomes contractual and they are not allowed to sell direct. And as the above mentions, by the time you figure out all of the costs and production impacts, it may not be worthwhile to build or have built either.
I can't imagine a FH550 pallet costing "too much" considering the returns. You could try TMU direct but with your region, Selway may get involved?
You could try aftermarket RGV companies like Fastems or something and see if they have other sources. But it's likely that most of them also buy from the "factory" as well...
