Pallet Services in Florida

FL

Florida is the third-most-populous state in the nation and one of the largest pallet markets in the United States, driven by a massive and diverse economy that spans tourism, agriculture, aerospace, international trade, and rapidly growing logistics and e-commerce sectors. The state's 15 deep-water ports, led by PortMiami, Port Everglades, and the Port of Jacksonville, handle hundreds of millions of tons of cargo annually, making Florida a global trade gateway and one of the most pallet-intensive states in the country. Florida's year-round agricultural season, centered on citrus, tomatoes, and tropical fruits, creates enormous seasonal and ongoing demand for food-grade pallets. The I-4 corridor connecting Tampa to Orlando and the I-95 Atlantic coast corridor are among the busiest freight routes in the Southeast, with palletized goods flowing continuously to serve the state's 22 million residents and over 130 million annual tourists. PalletsEco serves Florida businesses through a comprehensive logistics network that delivers new, recycled, and custom pallets to every major metro area in the state, supporting the unique demands of this dynamic and fast-growing market.
