Local picture

What moves through Sacramento.

Where Central Valley agriculture meets the I-5 and I-80 distribution corridors.

Sacramento sits in Sacramento County, served by I-5, I-80, US-50 and SR-99. The local freight base is agriculture, distribution, state government, and that mix is what determines which pallet specification actually makes sense here rather than which one is cheapest on paper.

At roughly 2200 miles, Sacramento is outside the range where hauling routine stock from Ohio makes economic sense. What does travel is specification: engineered builds, export crating and program design, where the value sits in the drawing rather than in the wood.

Questions

Pallets in Sacramento.

Can you deliver pallets to Sacramento?

Reachable on project freight and through our sourcing network. For routine weekly supply, a yard closer to you will almost certainly beat us on delivered cost, and we will say so. Sacramento is about 2200 road miles from our yard, about 33 hours to los angeles.

Do you collect used pallets from Sacramento?

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 Sacramento?

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 Sacramento 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, Distribution, State government. That mix is what decides the specification — see the table above, and industries for the full detail on each sector.
