Local picture
What moves through Rochester.
A healthcare-dominated economy, which means hygiene specifications drive the pallet conversation more than cost does.
Rochester sits in Olmsted County, served by I-90, US-52 and US-14. The local freight base is healthcare, medical research, food processing, and that mix is what determines which pallet specification actually makes sense here rather than which one is cheapest on paper.
At roughly 745 miles, Rochester 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.
