What Burlington makes and ships

Burlington at a glance

Burlington sits on Lake Champlain, 45 miles below the Canadian border and 95 miles south of Montreal. Its freight rides I-89 and US 7: chips from Essex Junction, electric aircraft from the airport, and cream, milk powder and chocolate out of St. Albans.

Chittenden County's goods come from a handful of specific places, starting with the semiconductor fab in Essex Junction. An electric-aircraft maker opened a 188,500-square-foot production plant at Burlington International Airport in October 2023. Burlington is home base for a chocolatier and a commercial-oven builder, and an ice-cream company is headquartered next door in South Burlington. Up I-89 in St. Albans, a dairy plant makes cream, condensed skim milk and milk powder, and a cocoa and chocolate supplier runs a facility in the city.

Those shippers push pallet orders in different directions. Fab and aircraft freight is costly and often crated, so it wants new pallets or exact custom sizes. Milk powder, cream and chocolate move in heavy, often chilled loads that need sturdy 48x40 decks. Small food and gift makers ship mixed retail cases that have to arrive square. Canada is Vermont's top export market, so many loads cross at Highgate Springs, which changes paperwork more than pallets.

Ports, rail and highways

How freight moves

I-89 is the main freight road, running from New Hampshire past Montpelier, then north from South Burlington through Colchester to the Highgate Springs crossing, which the GSA counts among New England's three busiest ports of entry. US 7 runs north–south along the lake, and I-189 links I-89 to US 7 at the city's south end. Rail freight follows a line from St. Albans, where it meets Canadian trains, through Essex Junction toward Connecticut, plus a state-owned line south to Rutland. Burlington International has a customs port of entry for unscheduled flights. For ocean containers, the Port of Montreal sits 95 miles north.

Which pallet to order

The right pallet grade for Burlington.

Pick the pallet by the dock. St. Albans dairy and cocoa plants and Burlington food makers do best with Grade A or AAA 48x40s that hold up in coolers and on conveyors. The Essex Junction fab and the airport aircraft plant should order new or custom pallets, with block bases for heavy tools and subassemblies. Freight sold overseas through Montreal or Boston needs HT pallets marked under ISPM 15. Loads ending in Quebec can usually use untreated U.S. wood with the right origin statement. Grade B suits storage moves between Williston and Colchester warehouses.

Buying pallets in Burlington: questions

Do pallets on loads going into Quebec need heat treatment?
Not if the pallets are made from U.S. or Canadian wood and the import paperwork includes the origin statement both countries accept. Product that moves on from Montreal to overseas buyers is a different story, and it needs HT pallets with the ISPM 15 mark. Tell your account manager the final destination when you order.
Can you deliver to suppliers around the Essex Junction fab?
Yes. We deliver full truckloads to industrial docks in Essex Junction, Williston and South Burlington. Cleanroom suppliers often have strict pallet specs, so send yours with the order. Your account manager confirms lumber, construction and treatment in writing before the truck is booked.
What pallet do St. Albans dairy plants use for powder and cream?
Bagged milk powder is dense, and cream and condensed skim travel chilled, so dairy docks generally ask for Grade A or AAA 48x40s with solid top decks and no protruding nails. Some plants specify new pallets for finished product. Send the plant's spec and we match it.
Can you supply custom pallets for aircraft parts at the airport?
Yes. Send drawings or the footprint, weight and lift points, and we source custom pallets or block bases from independent yards that build to print. Your account manager spells out lumber, fasteners and dimensions on the quote. If parts ship abroad, ask for HT lumber carrying the ISPM 15 stamp.
