More about Pennsylvania

Local details

How we supply Pennsylvania

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 Pennsylvania.

Docks spread from Philadelphia, Bucks and Delaware counties to Allentown, Bethlehem and Easton, west through Reading and Lancaster to Harrisburg, Carlisle and Chambersburg, north to Scranton–Wilkes-Barre, and across to Pittsburgh's river valleys.

What Pennsylvania makes and ships

Pennsylvania at a glance

Pennsylvania freight runs on three fronts: big-box warehouses on I-78 in the Lehigh Valley and I-81 near Harrisburg, Philadelphia's Delaware River port and produce market, and Pittsburgh's river-and-rail industry. In between, snack makers and mushroom farms fill grocery trucks.

Pennsylvania mixes distribution, food and heavy industry. E-commerce and retail warehouses have spread along I-78 and I-81, from the Lehigh Valley to Harrisburg and Carlisle. Philadelphia's Packer Avenue terminal handles refrigerated fruit imports, and the city's enclosed, refrigerated wholesale produce market sits on Essington Avenue near I-95. Snack-food plants around Hanover and York, food makers across Lancaster County, and the mushroom farms of Kennett Square, credited with about half of U.S. mushroom output, round out the food side.

Pittsburgh adds a separate market built on rivers, rail lines and metals and machinery plants. Together they make Pennsylvania a large, varied pallet market. Warehouses cycle recycled 48x40s by the trailer, produce houses and mushroom packers need sound pallets for coolers, and western Pennsylvania's industrial shippers often need block or custom builds. Big DCs book inbound trucks by appointment, so delivery planning matters as much as grade.

Ports, rail and highways

How freight moves

I-78 links the Lehigh Valley to New Jersey and New York City, I-81 runs through Scranton, Harrisburg, Carlisle and Chambersburg, and the Pennsylvania Turnpike crosses the state from Ohio to New Jersey. I-95 serves Philadelphia's waterfront, and the produce market sits near I-95 and I-76. Packer Avenue Marine Terminal handles containers and refrigerated cargo on the Delaware River. In the west, the Port of Pittsburgh moves barges on the Ohio, Allegheny and Monongahela rivers.

Which pallet to order

The right pallet grade for Pennsylvania.

Lehigh Valley and I-81 warehouses can hold costs down with recycled Grade B for storage and Grade A for retail-bound loads. Snack and packaged-food plants should order Grade A GMA-style 48x40s, or AAA where a grocer is picky about appearance. Produce importers at Packer Avenue and mushroom growers in Chester County do better with Grade A or new pallets for cold, damp rooms. Pittsburgh-area metals and machinery shippers often need block pallets or custom sizes, and their exports need HT stamped under ISPM 15.

Cities and rules in Pennsylvania

Buying pallets in Pennsylvania: questions

Can you deliver to Lehigh Valley warehouses that book inbound by appointment?+
Yes. We deliver truckloads to buildings in Allentown, Bethlehem, Easton and the surrounding townships. Send your booking portal or scheduling contact and dock rules, and your account manager confirms the appointment, grade and count before the truck rolls.
What pallet do Hanover and York snack plants ship on?+
Light, bulky snack cases stack tall, so plants usually choose Grade A GMA-style 48x40s that sit flat. Some retailers expect AAA appearance. Tell us which receivers you ship to, and your account manager writes the matching grade into the quote.
Do fruit importers near Packer Avenue need heat-treated pallets?+
Fruit repacked for U.S. grocers usually just needs sound Grade A or new pallets that hold up in coolers. HT pallets with the ISPM 15 mark come into play when cargo goes back out in export containers. Your account manager confirms which one you need in writing.
Can you build block or custom pallets for Pittsburgh-area manufacturers?+
Yes. Heavy metal parts and machinery often ride block pallets or custom skids. Send the weight, footprint and handling details, and an independent yard in the region builds to that spec, with HT added for export orders.
Do you deliver to mushroom farms around Kennett Square?+
Yes. We deliver across southern Chester County. Growing and packing rooms there are cool and damp, so ask for Grade A or new pallets, and your account manager confirms the lumber and grade before the load is booked.
Where can I buy pallets in Pennsylvania?+
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 Pennsylvania?+
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 Pennsylvania?+
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.
