Local picture

What moves through Nashville.

One of the fastest-growing warehouse markets in the country, with local supply expanding to match.

Nashville sits in Davidson County, served by I-24, I-40, I-65 and I-440. The local freight base is healthcare distribution, music and media, automotive, warehousing, and that mix is what determines which pallet specification actually makes sense here rather than which one is cheapest on paper.

Nashville is served on scheduled contract freight from Columbus, roughly 385 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 Nashville.

Can you deliver pallets to Nashville?

Served on scheduled contract carriers rather than our own trailers. Economic for full trailer loads and program volume; less so for small orders. Nashville is about 385 road miles from our yard, about 6 hours to nashville.

Do you collect used pallets from Nashville?

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 Nashville?

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

What is the local industry mix?

Healthcare distribution, Music and media, Automotive, Warehousing. That mix is what decides the specification — see the table above, and industries for the full detail on each sector.
