What ships here
Illinois, in freight terms.
A major inland freight hub with extensive rail and intermodal terminals, plus food processing, chemicals and agriculture downstate.
The industry mix is what decides the pallet: a food plant, a drum filler and a fulfilment centre want different grades and footprints from the same rectangle of wood. The table below gives general guidance for the sectors in Illinois’s cities.
To ask for pallets, a collection or a removal, say which way the pallets flow and give the ZIP code. We pass the request to a partner supplier; availability depends on partner suppliers.
