What ships here
Iowa, in freight terms.
Agricultural processing at very large scale — corn, soybeans, ethanol and pork — plus agricultural equipment and insurance.
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 Iowa’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.
