What St. Louis makes and ships

St. Louis at a glance

Barges, trains and trucks all converge on St. Louis. Every Class I railroad in the country reaches the region, five interstates bridge the Mississippi, and river terminals such as America's Central Port in Granite City work the Illinois bank.

Greater St. Louis spans two states and makes a wide range of goods. Brewing, pet food and meat processing anchor the regional food sector on both sides of the river. Plants in north St. Louis County and the Metro East ship heavy equipment and metal products. Big distribution parks ring the metro: Gateway Commerce Center near Edwardsville and Pontoon Beach, and Fenton Logistics Park on the old auto plant site off I-44. Earth City and Hazelwood cluster warehouses next to Lambert airport.

The river splits pallet demand as much as industry does. Missouri-side docks near the airport and along I-44 are a separate run from Metro East DCs, and bridge traffic between the two states can stretch a route. Brewing and pet-food plants want consistent grades for automated lines. Heavy-equipment shops need block or custom builds. Big DCs off I-255 and I-270 turn standard 48x40s in large numbers, and their volume rises and falls with retail seasons.

Ports, rail and highways

How freight moves

I-270 and I-255 form a beltway on both banks, crossing the Mississippi at Chain of Rocks to the north and Jefferson Barracks to the south. I-70 crosses on the Stan Musial Veterans Memorial Bridge, I-55 and I-64 share the Poplar Street Bridge, and I-44 runs southwest toward Tulsa and Oklahoma City. All six Class I railroads serve the region, and Fenton Logistics Park sits on I-44 near I-270. America's Central Port and other barge terminals connect St. Louis by river to the Gulf of Mexico.

Which pallet to order

The right pallet grade for St. Louis.

Brewing, pet food and meat plants should order Grade A, AAA or new 48x40s, delivered dry, and send their pallet standard with the first order. Metro East and airport-area DCs run well on Grade B or Grade A recycled stock. Equipment makers need block pallets or custom sizes built to a print. Containers headed overseas, from any ramp in the region, need heat-treated (HT) pallets with the ISPM 15 mark. Across all of it, your account manager confirms the grade spec in writing before the truck is booked.

Buying pallets in St. Louis: questions

Do you deliver on both the Missouri and Illinois sides of the river?+
Yes. We deliver full truckloads to docks across St. Louis County, St. Charles County and the Metro East, from Earth City and Fenton to Edwardsville and Granite City. Each load goes to one dock, so tell your account manager which side you're on and your appointment rules.
What pallet do brewing and pet food plants in St. Louis ask for?+
Usually Grade A or new 48x40s with flat, solid decks, no loose bark and no protruding nails, because automated palletizers and wrappers jam on bad boards. Send your written pallet standard with the order, and your account manager confirms the grade spec.
Do you deliver to Gateway Commerce Center and other Metro East parks?+
Yes. DCs at Gateway Commerce Center near Edwardsville and Pontoon Beach, and in the parks along I-255 and I-270, receive full truckloads of recycled or new 48x40s. Share your door, appointment system and grade, and the details go on the written order.
Do export shipments from St. Louis need heat-treated pallets?+
If the wood leaves the country on an overseas shipment, yes in most cases. Pallets and crates on international freight generally must be heat-treated and marked to ISPM 15, whether the box goes to a coastal port by rail or by barge down the river. We source HT pallets from accredited facilities.
Where can I buy pallets in St. Louis, 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 St. Louis, 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 St. Louis, 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.
