Local picture

What moves through Meridian.

An I-20/I-59 junction town where rail and road freight meet.

Meridian sits in Lauderdale County, served by I-20, I-59 and US-45. The local freight base is manufacturing, rail, defence, and that mix is what determines which pallet specification actually makes sense here rather than which one is cheapest on paper.

At roughly 760 miles, Meridian 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 Meridian.

Can you deliver pallets to Meridian?

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. Meridian is about 760 road miles from our yard, about 12 hours.

Do you collect used pallets from Meridian?

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 Meridian?

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

What is the local industry mix?

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