Used pallets in Louisville, KY — 210 miles down I-71 south the entire way.

Q: Do you deliver pallets to Louisville?

Yes. Every other week, Monday, running 210 road miles down I-71 south the entire way — about 3 hours 15 minutes.

Q: Do you buy used pallets in Louisville?

Yes. Whole, repairable 48x40 cores have resale value and we pay per unit on collection in Louisville; mixed, wet or broken loads cost money to process and move on a removal fee instead.

Q: Which pallet sizes do you stock for Louisville?

Heat-treated export stock, heavy-deck for distilling, GMA buffer for programme customers. Anything outside that list is held in smaller depth or built to order.

Q: What is the minimum order into Louisville?

A partial trailer, roughly 260 units, on our own equipment. Smaller quantities are possible when a truck is already routed your way, so it is worth asking.

Q: How quickly can you quote a Louisville load?

Written quotes normally come back the same business day, and always within one. Send a size, a grade, a count and a delivery postcode and we will price it delivered rather than FOB, because freight is the variable that actually moves the number.

We run every other week, monday into Louisville from our Columbus yard. That fixed pattern is what keeps the delivered price competitive — the truck is already going.

The lane

What we know about Louisville.

Louisville is a straight run south on I-71 and a genuinely unusual pallet market, because Worldport has pulled an enormous amount of time-critical distribution into a relatively small city.

The practical consequence is a lot of demand for export-compliant stock and a lot of pressure on lead times. When someone in Louisville needs pallets, they generally needed them yesterday, which is why we hold buffer stock for programme customers in that lane specifically.

The bourbon industry is its own thing entirely — heavy, wet, and hard on wood. Barrel-related loads want heavy-deck units and we do not pretend a standard GMA will do.

Local economy

The UPS Worldport air hub and everything that has grown around it, plus appliance manufacturing, bourbon and distribution.

What we send there

Heat-treated export stock, heavy-deck for distilling, GMA buffer for programme customers.
