Local picture

What moves through Dothan.

Peanut and agricultural processing with a sharp autumn seasonal peak.

Dothan sits in Houston County, served by US-84, US-231 and SR-210. The local freight base is agriculture, food processing, manufacturing, and that mix is what determines which pallet specification actually makes sense here rather than which one is cheapest on paper.

Dothan is served on scheduled contract freight from Columbus, roughly 585 miles away. That works for full trailer loads and program volume; for a few hundred units, a local yard will beat us and we will say so.

Questions

Pallets in Dothan.

Can you deliver pallets to Dothan?

Served on scheduled contract carriers rather than our own trailers. Economic for full trailer loads and program volume; less so for small orders. Dothan is about 585 road miles from our yard, about 9 hours to birmingham.

Do you collect used pallets from Dothan?

Collection at this distance only works on volume — a full trailer of sorted cores, or a program arrangement. For smaller quantities a regional recycler is the right call. See sell your pallets.

What do pallets cost in Dothan?

Recycled 48×40 GMA has run roughly $7.50 to $12.00 for Grade A and $5.00 to $8.50 for Grade B in our home market, before freight. Delivered pricing to Dothan depends on the distance above and the order size, which is why we quote delivered rather than FOB.

What is the local industry mix?

Agriculture, Food processing, Manufacturing. That mix is what decides the specification — see the table above, and industries for the full detail on each sector.
