Local picture

What moves through Allentown.

The Lehigh Valley warehouse belt turns over pallets at a rate that supports several large recyclers locally.

Allentown sits in Lehigh County, served by I-78, I-476 and US-22. The local freight base is distribution, food processing, 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 Pennsylvania, so a delivered quote to Allentown 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.
