What Austin makes and ships

Austin at a glance

Austin's freight runs on I-35 and the SH 130 toll road, which loops east of the city past an EV assembly plant near Del Valle. North in Williamson County, chip suppliers fill buildings around Round Rock, Hutto and the new fab in Taylor.

Austin builds electronics. A 2021 FreightWaves report quoted the regional manufacturers association counting about 1,800 manufacturers, roughly half in computer and electronic products. The owner of the large chip fab in Taylor said in July 2026 that operations there are expected to begin this year, and ECR's Q2 2026 report names semiconductor makers and their suppliers as the main driver of industrial leasing, with Round Rock and Georgetown taking most new occupancy. Southeast Austin, near the airport and SH 130, holds much of the newer big-box warehouse space.

Pallet demand follows production more than ships. Fab suppliers and electronics plants receive parts, tools and packaged materials that need exact-footprint pallets. Big DCs in Southeast Austin and Hays County run standard 48x40s. South on SH 130, Lockhart's new cold storage and food plants add freezer demand. For ocean freight, the nearest container port is Port Houston, reached by US 290 or SH 71.

Ports, rail and highways

How freight moves

I-35 carries north–south freight between San Antonio and Dallas, and SH 130 parallels it to the east as a tollway from Seguin to Georgetown, built to pull Laredo truck traffic off I-35. US 290 and SH 71 run east toward Houston. Austin-Bergstrom International Airport handles air cargo southeast of downtown, beside the SH 130 interchange on SH 71. On rail, a city-owned short line from Giddings to Llano meets the Class I network at McNeil, and Class I tracks follow MoPac, the expressway named for the railroad that built them.

Which pallet to order

The right pallet grade for Austin.

Match the pallet to the dock. Chip-supplier and electronics receiving areas often specify new or AAA pallets built to an exact footprint with no loose boards; your account manager confirms that spec in writing. Big DCs in Southeast Austin and Hays County run Grade A 48x40s outbound and Grade B for internal moves. Lockhart's freezer docks should order new or top-grade recycled stock. Equipment crated for export, or freight crossing at Laredo, needs heat-treated (HT) pallets marked under ISPM 15, and heavy tool parts may need block pallets.

Buying pallets in Austin: questions

Can you deliver to semiconductor suppliers around Taylor and Round Rock?+
Yes. Docks in Taylor, Hutto, Round Rock and Georgetown are part of our Austin coverage. Tell us the size, grade, receiving rules and any special handling the facility requires, and your account manager spells out the full spec on the quote before the load is scheduled.
What pallet should a Lockhart cold-storage dock order?+
Freezer and cooler docks do best with new or high-grade recycled 48x40s with solid deckboards and sound stringers or blocks. Heat treatment kills pests but does not prevent mold, so dry storage before use still matters. Your account manager confirms the grade and wood condition.
Do Austin manufacturers need heat-treated pallets for exports?+
Only for international freight. Equipment crated for overseas buyers, or trucked through Laredo into Mexico, needs heat-treated pallets with the ISPM 15 mark. Domestic loads to Dallas, Houston or a customer's DC can ride untreated pallets, which keeps those orders simpler.
Can big DCs along SH 130 get recycled pallets instead of new?+
Yes. Recycled 48x40s in Grade A or Grade B are a common fit for distribution buildings along SH 130 and in Southeast Austin. Grades are not standardized across the industry, so your account manager spells out what each grade means for your order in writing.
Do you deliver south to Kyle, Buda and San Marcos?+
Yes. The I-35 corridor between Austin and San Marcos is part of our coverage, including industrial parks in Buda and Kyle and the SH 130 side toward Lockhart. Share the dock address and receiving instructions, and your account manager puts the spec and grade on the quote.
Where can I buy pallets in Austin, TX?+
From us, by the full truckload: 616 recycled 48x40s per truck, or 520 block pallets. Call (470) 206-3352 or book a test load.
What do pallets cost delivered to Austin, TX?+
Full-truckload prices run from $4.75 a pallet for Grade B to $10.50 for AAA, freight included. Heat-treated adds $1.00–$1.50 per pallet.
When will a load reach Austin, TX?+
Your delivery date is on the quote, in writing, before you send a PO. Standard 48x40s often arrive in 0–2 business days. New and custom builds take longer.
