Coverage
Where our trucks actually go.
Central Ohio is covered daily from the Columbus yard. Cleveland, Cincinnati, Dayton, Toledo and Akron run on scheduled lanes. Everything else in the state we reach, and we will tell you honestly when a closer yard would serve you better.

Cities
Six scheduled markets
Each page covers what the local industrial base actually needs from a pallet — because a glass plant in Toledo and a fulfilment centre in Groveport are not solving the same problem.

Four more markets on existing lanes
These sit on routes we already run, which usually means better pricing than the mileage would suggest.
The yard
Everything runs from one gate.
7240 S Access Rd, Columbus, OH 43217. On the south side of Columbus, just off the I-270 outerbelt and minutes from Rickenbacker. Visitors welcome during yard hours — and worth doing before a first order.
Monday – Friday — 7:00 AM – 5:00 PM
Saturday — 8:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Sunday — Closed
Beyond the listed cities
We regularly run to Newark, Heath, Delaware, Circleville, Chillicothe, London, Washington Court House, Mount Vernon, Mansfield, Wooster, Findlay, Lima, Bellefontaine, Wilmington, Hillsboro, Athens, Cambridge, Coshocton, Mount Gilead, Marion, Bucyrus, Ashland, Medina and Canton.
Outside Ohio we arrange contract freight for truckload quantities into Indiana, Kentucky, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Michigan. Further than that, we will point you to a local yard rather than sell you freight that does not work.
Coverage table
Every market, distance and cadence
Distances are from the yard at 7240 S Access Rd. Cadence is what we can commit to on a standing arrangement — one-off requests are usually possible sooner in Central Ohio and later elsewhere.
| Market | County | Distance | Drive time | Cadence | Corridors |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Columbus | Franklin County | — | This is the yard | Daily, often same or next business day | I-70, I-71, I-270 |
| Cleveland | Cuyahoga County | 142 mi | About 2 hours 20 minutes | Scheduled lane, typically weekly | I-71, I-77, I-90 |
| Cincinnati | Hamilton County | 107 mi | About 1 hour 45 minutes | Scheduled lane, typically weekly | I-71, I-75, I-275 |
| Dayton | Montgomery County | 72 mi | About 1 hour 15 minutes | Scheduled lane, typically weekly; often twice weekly | I-70, I-75, I-675 |
| Toledo | Lucas County | 155 mi | About 2 hours 30 minutes | Scheduled lane, typically every one to two weeks | I-75, I-80/90 Ohio Turnpike, I-475 |
| Akron | Summit County | 128 mi | About 2 hours 5 minutes | Scheduled lane, typically every one to two weeks | I-77, I-76, SR-8 |
| Springfield | Clark County | 45 mi | About 50 minutes | Frequent — on the I-70 Dayton lane | I-70, US-40, SR-4 |

| Marysville | Union County | 41 mi | About 50 minutes | Frequent — inside the Central Ohio daily area | US-33, SR-4, I-270 via US-33 |
How coverage works
Three tiers, and what changes between them
Daily — Central Ohio
Franklin County and the surrounding corridor. In-stock reclaimed pallets frequently go out next business day; collections can usually be scheduled within forty-eight hours. Small volumes are viable because a stop only has to justify itself rather than a whole journey.
Scheduled lanes — the five outlying markets
Cleveland, Cincinnati, Dayton, Toledo and Akron run on fixed routes rather than on demand. A standing slot prices better than ad-hoc ordering because we can plan staging and routing against it, and it removes the expedite premiums that appear when you run short. Plan in weeks rather than days.
On-lane markets — everything in between
Springfield, Zanesville, Lancaster, Marysville and dozens of smaller places sit on routes we already run. That geography matters more than the mileage: a forty-pallet generator on an existing lane is workable where the same site at the end of a dedicated trip would not be.
What actually determines whether we can serve you
Four things, in roughly this order of importance.
- Route, not distance. A site on an existing lane is easier to serve than a closer one that is not.
- Volume and cadence. Predictable volume is worth more than large volume, because it can be planned around.
- Access. Whether a 53-foot trailer can enter, turn and park, and whether a forklift and operator are available. This genuinely changes the price.
- Direction of flow. If you both consume and generate, a two-way lane is possible and it changes the economics more than anything else on this list.
Where we will tell you to go elsewhere
Our own equipment covers Ohio. For Indiana, Kentucky, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Michigan we arrange contract freight on truckload quantities, priced through rather than marked up opaquely.
Beyond that we will usually recommend a yard closer to you. Long-haul freight on a low-value-density product like pallets rarely makes economic sense, and selling it to you anyway would be selling something that does not work.
Questions
Coverage questions
Do you deliver outside the cities listed?
Yes — the city pages are the markets with named lanes, not the limit of coverage. We regularly run to Newark, Heath, Delaware, Circleville, Chillicothe, London, Mount Vernon, Mansfield, Wooster, Findlay, Lima, Bellefontaine, Wilmington, Athens, Cambridge, Coshocton, Marion, Ashland, Medina and Canton. Send your ZIP code and we will confirm.
What is the minimum volume for collection?
About forty pallets for a dedicated trip. Smaller volumes are often workable if you sit on an existing route, which is why it is worth asking rather than assuming — see pallet removal & pickup.
Can you serve multiple sites across Ohio under one arrangement?
Yes. Multi-site scheduling, consolidated reporting and a single invoice are the main reasons operations move to a managed programme.
How far in advance should we book?
In Central Ohio, a couple of days is usually enough. On the scheduled lanes, a week gives you a much better outcome than two days — it moves you from the exception list onto the plan.
