More about Colorado

Local details

How we supply Colorado

Sourcing

Chesapeake Pallets is a pallet broker based in Atlanta. We don't own a yard. For each load we buy from the closest vetted yard that has your grade in stock. One account manager handles your quote, paperwork and invoice.

Where we deliver

Pallet delivery across Colorado.

Docks cluster in Adams County around Commerce City, Henderson and Brighton, north Denver along I-70, Aurora, Weld and Larimer counties from Greeley to Fort Collins, El Paso County at Colorado Springs, and Mesa County at Grand Junction.

What Colorado makes and ships

Colorado at a glance

Colorado freight funnels through Denver, where I-25 crosses I-70 and I-76 on the north side of the city. Weld County beef and dairy, Western Slope peaches, San Luis Valley potatoes and Front Range beer all ride trucks that cross the plains or climb the Rockies.

Colorado's goods economy splits along the Continental Divide. East of the mountains, Weld County is the state's leading producer of cattle, grain and sugar beets, Greeley is home to a major beef packer, and Golden and Fort Collins brew beer at large scale. The Front Range adds food processing, machinery and transportation equipment, and aerospace and defense firms keep offices from Colorado Springs to Boulder. West of the divide, Palisade orchards grow peaches and wine grapes, and the San Luis Valley farms potatoes, lettuce and barley.

Those industries shape pallet demand in different ways. Meatpacking and dairy plants on the northern plains send boxed product into cold chains, while breweries and beverage distributors ship heavy, tall stacks that need strong decks. Distribution centers in Commerce City, Aurora and Henderson move groceries and retail goods across the region. Mountain grades and winter traction and chain laws on I-70 add planning time for any load bound for Grand Junction or the resort towns.

Ports, rail and highways

How freight moves

I-25 runs the Front Range from Pueblo and Colorado Springs through Denver to Fort Collins and Cheyenne. I-70 heads east across the plains to Kansas and west through the Eisenhower Tunnel, over Vail Pass and through Glenwood Canyon to Grand Junction and Utah. I-76 angles northeast toward Nebraska, and the E-470 tollway loops the eastern suburbs past Denver International Airport. CDOT can put traction and chain laws on any state highway during storms. Colorado has no seaport, so ocean freight reaches the state by rail or truck.

Which pallet to order

The right pallet grade for Colorado.

Northern Colorado meat and dairy plants should order new or AAA pallets for freezers and coolers. Breweries and beverage distributors need Grade A or heavier builds with full top decks to carry kegs and cases. Denver retail DCs usually take Grade A 48x40s, while general warehousing can run Grade B. Aerospace and equipment shippers in Colorado Springs and Boulder often need custom sizes or block pallets. Any crate leaving the country should ride HT pallets stamped under ISPM 15. Your account manager confirms the grade spec in writing.

Cities and rules in Colorado

Buying pallets in Colorado: questions

Does winter weather on I-70 affect loads to the Western Slope?
It can. CDOT may put traction or chain laws in place on mountain highways and close them in severe storms, which can move delivery days for Grand Junction and the resort towns. Your account manager checks road conditions and confirms the delivery plan with you.
What pallet should a Greeley-area meat or dairy plant order?
Plants sending boxed beef, milk or cheese into cold storage usually do best with new or AAA 48x40s that have tight decks and no loose nails. Many receivers publish their own pallet rules. Send the spec and your account manager will put the grade on the quote.
Can you deliver to warehouses near Denver International Airport and along E-470?
Yes. We deliver to distribution centers in Commerce City, Henderson, Brighton, Aurora and the airport corridor. Give us the dock address and appointment rules, and your account manager will confirm the grade and load details before anything ships.
Do you deliver to fruit packers around Palisade and Grand Junction?
Yes. We deliver to orchard packing sheds, wineries and warehouses in Mesa County. Fruit packing is seasonal, so tell us when your harvest starts and your account manager will line up loads ahead of it, with the grade on the quote.
Where can I buy pallets in Colorado?
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 Colorado?
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 Colorado?
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.
