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 Wisconsin.

Plants and warehouses sit in Milwaukee, West Allis and Waukesha, along I-94 in Kenosha and Pleasant Prairie, up I-41 through Oshkosh, Appleton and Green Bay, around Madison, in Sheboygan County, and in central Wisconsin's cranberry and vegetable country.

What Wisconsin makes and ships

Wisconsin at a glance

Wisconsin freight follows I-94 from Kenosha to the Twin Cities and I-41 up the Fox River Valley to Green Bay. Cheese, paper, canned vegetables and Milwaukee machinery fill the trailers, and cranberry marshes add a fall rush.

Wisconsin made about a quarter of U.S. cheese in 2025, from 107 cheese plants, and Plymouth calls itself the Cheese Capital of the World. The state's economic development agency ranks Wisconsin first in papermaking, with mills concentrated in the Fox Valley. Central Wisconsin grew 61% of the nation's cranberries in 2025, and canneries pack snap beans, sweet corn and peas. Milwaukee is home to makers of industrial controls, water heaters and motorcycles, and it still brews beer. Along I-94, Kenosha and Pleasant Prairie hold big distribution campuses.

Those industries put very different loads on a pallet. Cheese blocks and barrels are dense and sit in coolers, so plants want solid, heavy builds. Tissue and paper rolls are light but bulky and often need wider decks. Machinery needs custom footprints. Vegetable canneries run hard from July into October, and cranberry receivers need a big batch of pallets once the marshes are flooded for harvest in late September.

Ports, rail and highways

How freight moves

I-94 is the main artery, running from the Illinois line through Kenosha, Milwaukee and Madison to the Twin Cities. I-41, added to the interstate system in 2015, carries Fox Valley freight between Milwaukee, Oshkosh, Appleton and Green Bay, I-43 follows the Lake Michigan shore, and I-39/I-90 heads to Rockford and Chicago. City-owned Port Milwaukee and the Port of Green Bay, which calls itself Lake Michigan's westernmost port, handle bulk and breakbulk. Superior shares the Twin Ports with Duluth on Lake Superior, and Chicago's container ramps sit a short haul south of the state line.

Which pallet to order

The right pallet grade for Wisconsin.

Cheese plants usually want AAA or new 48x40s that carry dense weight in coolers without sagging. Fox Valley tissue and paper converters often order Grade A or custom footprints to match case and roll sizes. Canneries need Grade A or new under heavy case stacks before the pack begins. Milwaukee machinery lines need block pallets or new custom builds, and Kenosha-area DCs run Grade B recycled. Exports heading overseas through Chicago need HT pallets stamped under ISPM 15. Every grade call is confirmed in writing first.

Cities and rules in Wisconsin

Buying pallets in Wisconsin: questions

What pallet do Wisconsin cheese plants ask for?+
Most want strong 48x40s, often AAA or new, with solid deck boards that hold dense blocks and barrels in cold storage without sagging. Some plants spec a particular stringer or block build. Send your current spec and your account manager puts it on the quote before the load is built.
Can I get pallets for cranberry harvest around Wisconsin Rapids and Warrens?+
Yes. Receiving stations and packers along the Cranberry Highway need a big order once harvest starts in late September, and it usually runs through much of October. Place the order early with the footprint and grade, and your account manager confirms the spec and delivery.
Do you deliver to paper and tissue converters in the Fox Valley?+
Yes. We deliver to mills and converters in Green Bay, Appleton, Neenah and the rest of the Fox Cities. Tissue and towel cases often need a particular footprint, so send your case pattern and your account manager puts the pallet size and grade on the quote.
Can you deliver to DCs in Kenosha and Pleasant Prairie?+
Yes. Full truckloads go to warehouses along I-94 in Kenosha, Pleasant Prairie and Racine County. Share the receiving rules and the grade your racks take, and you'll get every detail back in writing before the truck is booked.
Should canneries order pallets before the vegetable pack starts?+
Yes. Snap bean, sweet corn and pea packing runs from July into October, and canned-goods stacks are heavy. Booking pallets before the first harvest week keeps lines from waiting. Send your case pattern and your account manager confirms grade and timing.
Where can I buy pallets in Wisconsin?+
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 Wisconsin?+
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 Wisconsin?+
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.
