What Nebraska makes and ships

Nebraska at a glance

Nebraska freight is beef first. Packing plants in Dakota City, Grand Island, Schuyler, Omaha and North Platte ship boxed beef, while I-80 and the transcontinental rail main line follow the Platte River west past Bailey Yard.

Nebraska turns cattle and corn into food and fuel. The state agriculture department ranks Nebraska first in commercial cattle slaughter and in beef and veal exports, with plants at Dakota City, Grand Island, Schuyler, Omaha and North Platte. Nebraska ranks second in ethanol and in popcorn and grows more Great Northern beans than any other state. Lincoln builds off-road vehicles, personal watercraft and passenger rail cars, Norfolk makes steel products, Columbus builds grain bins, and Grand Island makes ammunition.

Beef sets the pace for pallets. Packing plants and cold-storage warehouses ship boxed beef every day and want strong pallets that hold up in coolers, with heat-treated stock for export cartons. Popcorn and bean processors need sturdy builds under heavy bags. Omaha and Lincoln DCs run standard 48x40s. Fall harvest pulls trucks toward grain across the state, so buyers outside the metros book pallet orders early.

Ports, rail and highways

How freight moves

I-80 runs 455 miles across Nebraska from Omaha through Lincoln, Grand Island, Kearney and North Platte toward Wyoming, following the Platte River and the transcontinental rail main line; the state's mainline interstate was finished in 1974. I-480 and I-680 serve Omaha, and I-29 stays on the Iowa side of the Missouri. US-81 runs through York, Columbus and Norfolk, and US-30 parallels I-80. Bailey Yard in North Platte, which Guinness recognized as the world's largest rail yard, sorts freight cars. Eppley Airfield handles air cargo.

Which pallet to order

The right pallet grade for Nebraska.

Beef plants usually order AAA or new 48x40s that hold their shape in coolers, and boxed beef for export needs HT pallets carrying the ISPM 15 stamp. Popcorn and bean processors want Grade A or new pallets under heavy bags. Rail-car, vehicle and steel producers need block pallets or new custom sizes. Omaha and Lincoln DCs mostly run Grade B recycled. Book ahead of fall harvest outside the metros. Because grade names vary from seller to seller, the spec is confirmed in writing.

Cities and rules in Nebraska

Buying pallets in Nebraska: questions

Do you deliver to beef plants in Grand Island, Schuyler and Dakota City?
Yes. Full truckloads go to packing plants and cold-storage warehouses across Nebraska. Most want strong 48x40s for coolers, and export cartons need HT pallets bearing the IPPC mark. Send your spec, and your account manager puts it on the quote.
What pallets do popcorn and bean processors use?
Usually Grade A or new 48x40s with solid decks and no raised nails, since heavy bags tear on loose fasteners. Export buyers often require heat-treated pallets. Send your spec sheet, and your account manager confirms grade and treatment.
Can you deliver across the Omaha–Council Bluffs metro and Lincoln?
Yes. We deliver to warehouses and plants in Omaha, Papillion, La Vista, Council Bluffs and Lincoln. Share the address, the receiving desk's booking process and your usual pallet grade, and your account manager spells out the details on the quote before booking.
Can you supply heavy-duty pallets for manufacturers in Lincoln and Norfolk?
Yes. Rail-car parts, off-road vehicles and steel products usually need block pallets, new custom-sized builds or skids. Send the footprint, weight and how the load is lifted or stacked, and your account manager drafts the build spec for your approval before the first truck.
Where can I buy pallets in Nebraska?
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 Nebraska?
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 Nebraska?
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.
