Illinois regulatory context

Port of Chicago Calumet Harbor and Joliet inland-port operations require ISPM-15 documentation for export loads; we coordinate with Illinois International Port District and Joliet Terminal Railroad for certified loads.

Illinois Department of Transportation oversize-load permits restrict pallet shipments via I-55, I-57, and I-80; our IDOT-permitted carriers handle Chicago-area, Springfield-corridor, and Quad Cities routing.

Pallet specification detail

Deck board edge type defaults to chamfered for forklift safety; square-edge available on request for ASRS compatibility; rounded-edge banding tracks available for high-throughput line-side delivery.

Delivery and logistics

Live-load operations bring the trailer to your dock for a 90-minute window; loader/unloader provided; suited to customers without dedicated dock space or with intermittent volume.
