Local picture

What moves through Macon.

The I-16/I-75 junction, where Savannah port freight meets the Atlanta corridor.

Macon sits in Bibb County, served by I-16, I-75 and I-475. The local freight base is distribution, aerospace maintenance, manufacturing, and that mix is what determines which pallet specification actually makes sense here rather than which one is cheapest on paper.

Macon is served on scheduled contract freight from Columbus, roughly 570 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 Macon.

Can you deliver pallets to Macon?

Served on scheduled contract carriers rather than our own trailers. Economic for full trailer loads and program volume; less so for small orders. Macon is about 570 road miles from our yard, about 9 hours.

Do you collect used pallets from Macon?

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 Macon?

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 Macon depends on the distance above and the order size, which is why we quote delivered rather than FOB.

What is the local industry mix?

Distribution, Aerospace maintenance, Manufacturing. That mix is what decides the specification — see the table above, and industries for the full detail on each sector.
