Local picture

What moves through Lewiston.

Former mill city with a manufacturing base and small-lot pallet demand.

Lewiston sits in Androscoggin County, served by I-95, SR-196 and US-202. The local freight base is manufacturing, healthcare, food processing, and that mix is what determines which pallet specification actually makes sense here rather than which one is cheapest on paper.

At roughly 830 miles, Lewiston 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.

Questions

Pallets in Lewiston.

Can you deliver pallets to Lewiston?

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. Lewiston is about 830 road miles from our yard, about 13 hours.

Do you collect used pallets from Lewiston?

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 Lewiston?

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

What is the local industry mix?

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