Local picture
What moves through Durham.
Biotech manufacturing with cleanroom-adjacent handling requirements.
Durham sits in Durham County, served by I-40, I-85, I-885 and US-15. The local freight base is biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, research, and that mix is what determines which pallet specification actually makes sense here rather than which one is cheapest on paper.
Durham is served on scheduled contract freight from Columbus, roughly 430 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 Durham.
Can you deliver pallets to Durham?
Served on scheduled contract carriers rather than our own trailers. Economic for full trailer loads and program volume; less so for small orders. Durham is about 430 road miles from our yard, about 7 hours to charlotte.
Do you collect used pallets from Durham?
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 Durham?
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 Durham depends on the distance above and the order size, which is why we quote delivered rather than FOB.
What is the local industry mix?
Biotechnology, Pharmaceuticals, Research. That mix is what decides the specification — see the table above, and industries for the full detail on each sector.
