Local picture

What moves through Syracuse.

The I-81/I-90 crossing is the natural consolidation point for all of central New York.

Syracuse sits in Onondaga County, served by I-90, I-81 and I-690. The local freight base is distribution, manufacturing, semiconductors, and that mix is what determines which pallet specification actually makes sense here rather than which one is cheapest on paper.

Syracuse is served on scheduled contract freight from Columbus, roughly 320 miles away. That works for full trailer loads and program volume; for a few hundred units, a local yard will beat us and we will say so.

Questions

Pallets in Syracuse.

Can you deliver pallets to Syracuse?

Served on scheduled contract carriers rather than our own trailers. Economic for full trailer loads and program volume; less so for small orders. Syracuse is about 320 road miles from our yard, about 5 hours to buffalo, 8 to new york city.

Do you collect used pallets from Syracuse?

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 Syracuse?

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

What is the local industry mix?

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