About Us 
Day Lumber Corporation was incorporated in 1929 by Clarence Day. Clarence operated Day Lumber as a lumber and retail yard. In the mid 1950s, Peck Lumber Company purchased Day Lumber. Peck Lumber was a family business that owned timberlands, sawmills, and a planning mill. With over 95 years of industry experience, we pride ourselves on having the most knowledgeable and stable workforce in the industry.
Day Lumber’s customer base consists of many satisfied and loyal Fortune 500 companies and Dunn & Bradstreet has given Day Lumber the highest financial rating possible.
All of our wood products come from the highest quality stock and we purchase both pre-cut hardwood and bulk stock from Canada to the Carolinas. In 1986, John and Deborah Simpson purchased Day Lumber. In 2008, Neal Churchill and Arthur Grodd became the new owners of the newly named KG Pallet, LLC d/b/a/ Day Lumber Company. In 2019, Matt Grodd purchased the company from Neal and Arthur to enhance the companies current line of business and bring in a rejuvenated focus on sales and customer service.
In 2015, Day Lumber Company moved from it’s Westfield, MA facility to a new building in Chicopee, MA. Day Lumber is strategically located in the center of New England to allow us to service customers throughout all of Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and everywhere in between. Over the past few years Day Lumber has brought in a new management team, invested in state of the art equipment, and grown their footprint within the wood packaging industry.
