Local picture
What moves through Wilmington.
The largest banana port in the country; inbound foreign footprints accumulate faster than local demand absorbs them.
Wilmington sits in New Castle County, served by I-95, I-495, US-13 and SR-141. The local freight base is port freight, chemicals, finance, fruit import, and that mix is what determines which pallet specification actually makes sense here rather than which one is cheapest on paper.
Wilmington is served on scheduled contract freight from Columbus, roughly 480 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.
