Local picture

What moves through Fort Lauderdale.

Port Everglades handles cruise, container and petroleum, each with a different packaging profile.

Fort Lauderdale sits in Broward County, served by I-95, I-595, I-75 and Florida Turnpike. The local freight base is port freight, marine, distribution, and that mix is what determines which pallet specification actually makes sense here rather than which one is cheapest on paper.

At roughly 900 miles, Fort Lauderdale 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.

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.
