Michigan's world-famous manufacturing sector demands a reliable, high-volume pallet supply — and Cleveland Pallet delivers. With Detroit just 170 miles from our facility via the I-90 and I-75 corridor, we maintain consistent delivery routes across the Great Lakes State, reaching every major metro from Detroit to Traverse City. Michigan is home to more than 14,000 manufacturing establishments, and the state's unique concentration of automotive, furniture, and advanced manufacturing creates pallet demand that few states can match.
The automotive industry alone uses millions of pallets each year for parts shipping, assembly line operations, just-in-time supplier logistics, and finished vehicle component distribution. We supply used and recycled pallets that meet the demanding specifications of Michigan's auto manufacturers — including the specific size, grade, and weight-bearing requirements that OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers mandate. Our automotive-spec pallets keep costs 40-60% below new pallet prices while meeting the same functional requirements.
Beyond automotive, we serve Michigan's renowned furniture industry in Grand Rapids, which has been a global center of office and residential furniture manufacturing for over a century. The furniture industry requires clean, splinter-free pallets for shipping finished goods, and our A-grade inventory meets these aesthetic and functional standards. We also serve the growing medical device and life sciences sector in the Ann Arbor-Detroit corridor, where cleanliness and consistency are paramount.
Michigan's agricultural sector is another major driver of pallet demand. The state is a top producer of cherries, blueberries, apples, asparagus, and dozens of other crops, and the food processing operations that turn these harvests into consumer products need food-grade pallets in large quantities during harvest season. We work with Michigan food processors to ensure they have the seasonal surge capacity they need, pre-positioning inventory to meet the predictable spikes in demand.
Our commitment to sustainability resonates strongly with Michigan companies that value the Great Lakes environment. Michigan businesses understand that protecting the Great Lakes means reducing waste, and our pallet recycling and repair services help companies across the state divert wood waste from landfills. Every pallet we repair extends its useful life by years, and every pallet we recycle keeps materials in the circular economy rather than in a Michigan landfill.
From the Upper Peninsula's mining and timber operations to the bustling industrial corridors of southeast Michigan, Cleveland Pallet has the geographic reach, the inventory depth, and the industry expertise to serve as Michigan's preferred pallet partner.
