What moves through Dallas–Fort Worth
The Alliance and south Dallas corridors generate cores at a rate few markets match. Recycled 48x40 pricing here regularly sits $1.50–$2.50 below the national midpoint.
- The Alliance corridor north of Fort Worth is effectively a pallet factory in reverse — inbound volume arrives palletised and leaves in cases.
- The building-products trade around Grand Prairie and Garland generates heavy-duty odd stock that rarely appears in other markets.
- Cross-border Mexico traffic means ISPM-15 demand is higher here than in comparable inland metros.

Through the year
How this market behaves seasonally
Pallet supply moves on retail and industrial cycles, and those cycles differ by metro. Planning against the local pattern is worth more than any negotiated discount.
Q1
Loosest supply of the year. If you can buy ahead and store, this is when.
Q2
Steady. Construction demand lifts heavy-duty and odd-size stock.
Q3
Heat affects yard scheduling more than supply. Work shifts earlier in the day.
Q4
Tightens modestly. The Alliance corridor generates enough to absorb most of the seasonal pull.

Local access and routing notes
The details that decide whether a delivery lands cleanly, gathered from actually running these lanes.
- Almost nothing is a dead-head here. A truck delivering in Plano can collect in Garland and load out toward Houston the same day.
- Alliance corridor facilities run strict appointment systems; we book against them rather than calling on the day.
- Trailer drops are widely practical — most sites have the yard space.
- Cross-border loads need ISPM-15 planning further ahead than domestic ones. Flag Mexico destinations at quote stage.
Questions
What buyers in Dallas–Fort Worth ask
Market-specific answers, not the national FAQ repeated.
Why is DFW pricing lower than almost anywhere else?
Route density and core generation. The Alliance and south Dallas corridors produce cores at a rate few markets match, and the lane structure means trucks rarely run empty in any direction. Both effects land in the price.
Can you support cross-border shipments into Mexico?
Yes. Mexico requires ISPM-15 compliance, so heat treatment demand here is higher than in comparable inland metros. Tell us the destination at quote stage and we schedule treatment into the build rather than bolting it on.
Do you handle Saturday collections?
Yes, this is one of the markets where we run Saturday routes. It is useful for sites that cannot release a dock during the working week.
How quickly can you deliver in DFW?
Stock 48x40 grades move in 24 hours, A-clean sorts in one to two days, and new builds in five to ten from East Texas mills. Those lead times are a route-density effect rather than a stocking one — trucks are already moving in every direction out of here.
Is DFW a good market to buy ahead and store?
Q1 is the loosest supply of the year, so yes if you have the space. What usually decides it is storage cost against the saving from buying in January rather than October. Below about two thousand pallets it rarely pays; above that it often does.
