What Kansas City makes and ships

Kansas City at a glance

Four Class I railroads meet in Kansas City, and I-29, I-35, I-49 and I-70 all converge on it. Southwest of town in Edgerton, Kan., an intermodal ramp anchors Logistics Park Kansas City, a master-planned warehouse district.

Kansas City straddles the state line and lives on freight. The intermodal facility at Logistics Park Kansas City opened in 2013, and distribution buildings have filled in around it in Edgerton and Gardner. Two auto assembly plants, one in the Fairfax Industrial District of Kansas City, Kan., and one at Claycomo, Mo., anchor a supplier base. Foodservice distributors and a grocery wholesaler rank among the region's major employers. And beneath the city, former limestone mines hold roughly 25 million square feet of business space.

That mix makes for broad, year-round pallet demand. DCs at the Edgerton park and along I-435 run standard 48x40s by the trailer. Auto suppliers ship parts on pallets built to a print and timed to assembly schedules. Grocery and foodservice warehouses want sound, rack-ready stock. The cave warehouses add a local twist: they hold 65–70°F all year, so goods stored underground skip the freeze-thaw cycle that wears on pallets left in outdoor yards.

Ports, rail and highways

How freight moves

I-35 runs southwest through Olathe toward Wichita and north toward Des Moines; I-70 crosses east–west between St. Louis and Denver; I-29 heads north past Kansas City International toward Omaha; and I-49 runs south toward Joplin. The I-435 loop ties the suburbs together on both sides of the state line. Four Class I railroads serve the region, and since a 2023 merger one of them runs a single network from Canada through Kansas City to Mexico. The Edgerton ramp handles containers and trailers for the I-35 corridor.

Which pallet to order

The right pallet grade for Kansas City.

DCs at Edgerton and along I-435 run well on Grade B or Grade A recycled 48x40s. Grocery and foodservice warehouses should ask for Grade A or AAA with solid decks for racking and cold rooms. Auto suppliers near Fairfax and Claycomo need block pallets or custom sizes built to a print, often in new lumber. Freight bound for Mexico or overseas should ride on heat-treated (HT) pallets stamped under ISPM 15; confirm the importer's rules with your customs broker. Your account manager confirms every grade spec in writing.

Buying pallets in Kansas City: questions

Can you deliver to warehouses at Logistics Park Kansas City in Edgerton?+
Yes. We deliver full truckloads to DCs in Edgerton, Gardner and the rest of southern Johnson County. Give your account manager your appointment system, door rules and whether you want recycled or new 48x40s, and those details and the grade spec go on the quote.
Do you deliver to underground warehouses in the limestone caves?+
Yes. Cave business parks receive by truck through their tunnel entrances like any other dock. Tell your account manager which entrance you use, any height or length limits inside, and your appointment rules, so the carrier is booked with the right equipment. Deck condition still matters for racking underground.
What pallet should auto suppliers near Fairfax or Claycomo order?+
Usually block pallets or custom skids built to the customer's print, with the deck layout, lumber size and fasteners spelled out. Send the print and load weight; an independent yard near your plant builds to it, and your account manager confirms the build spec.
Do Mexico-bound loads leaving Kansas City need heat-treated pallets?+
Plan on HT. Wood packaging on international shipments generally has to meet ISPM 15, and HT pallets stamped under that standard avoid trouble at the border. Your customs broker can confirm the importer's rules. We deliver HT pallets from accredited facilities when your order calls for them.
Where can I buy pallets in Kansas City, MO?+
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 Kansas City, MO?+
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 Kansas City, MO?+
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.
