The Inland Empire — the sprawling region encompassing Riverside and San Bernardino counties in Southern California — has quietly become one of the most important logistics hubs in the Western Hemisphere. And Riverside Pallet Co. is proud to be at its center.

The numbers are staggering. Over 50 million square feet of warehouse and distribution space has been built in the Inland Empire in the past decade alone. Major retailers, e-commerce companies, and third-party logistics providers have all established massive operations here.

Why here? Geography. The Inland Empire sits at the intersection of major interstate highways (I-10, I-15, I-215), is within 60 miles of the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach (the busiest in North America), and has access to two international airports and three major rail lines.

The pallet demand is enormous. The concentration of warehouses, distribution centers, and manufacturing facilities in this region creates a massive, constant need for pallets — new, recycled, and repaired. Riverside Pallet Co. processes over 10,000 pallets per day to help meet this demand.

Our location in Riverside puts us at the heart of this logistics ecosystem. We can reach any facility in the Inland Empire within an hour, and most of Southern California within two hours. Same-day delivery is available throughout the region.

As the Inland Empire continues to grow as a logistics powerhouse, Riverside Pallet Co. is growing with it — expanding our facility, fleet, and team to serve the ever-increasing demand for sustainable pallet solutions in America's freight capital.
