Local picture

What moves through Fresno.

Central Valley packing at a scale that dwarfs Midwest agriculture, with a steep seasonal curve.

Fresno sits in Fresno County, served by SR-99, SR-41 and SR-180. The local freight base is agricultural processing, food packing, distribution, and that mix is what determines which pallet specification actually makes sense here rather than which one is cheapest on paper.

At roughly 2200 miles, Fresno 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.

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. Fresno is about 2200 road miles from our yard, about 33 hours to los angeles.

Do you collect used pallets from Fresno?

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 Fresno?

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

What is the local industry mix?

Agricultural processing, Food packing, Distribution. That mix is what decides the specification — see the table above, and industries for the full detail on each sector.
