Local picture
What moves through Detroit.
Returnable fleet management and 48×45 repair loops are most of what we do here; one-way stock is usually cheaper from a local yard.
Detroit sits in Wayne County, served by I-75, I-94, I-96, I-696 and I-275. The local freight base is automotive assembly, tier suppliers, cross-border logistics, and that mix is what determines which pallet specification actually makes sense here rather than which one is cheapest on paper.
We run our own equipment into Michigan, so a delivered quote to Detroit is a real number rather than a brokered guess. We run our own equipment into this state on a repeating weekly or biweekly pattern, which is what keeps the delivered price competitive.
