Local picture

What moves through North Platte.

Home to the largest rail classification yard in the world, which shapes everything about local freight.

North Platte sits in Lincoln County, served by I-80, US-83 and US-30. The local freight base is rail classification, agriculture, logistics, and that mix is what determines which pallet specification actually makes sense here rather than which one is cheapest on paper.

At roughly 720 miles, North Platte 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.

Do you collect used pallets from North Platte?

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.
