Why Conroe & The Woodlands looks the way it does
Montgomery County has quietly become a manufacturing county. The plants are newer, the docks are cleaner, and the boxes come back to us in better shape than almost anywhere else in the metro.
What we move here
- Graded used gaylord boxes in Grades A, B and C, knocked down and banded.
- New made-to-spec boxes where the application is regulated or customer-facing.
- Buyback of your empties, sorted or mixed, credited against freight.
- Baled OCC collection with certified weights and same-day tickets.
- Pallets, lids, liners and accessories on the same delivery.

Planning a Conroe & The Woodlands delivery
The things that actually move the price on this lane, in the order they matter.
Tell us the gate procedure
Gate queues are a cost line, not paperwork. A Conroe & The Woodlands site with a two-hour trailer queue is a more expensive delivery than one twice as far away with a clear dock — and if we know in advance, we schedule around it instead of absorbing it into the rate.
Say what is going the other way
Empty boxes, baled fiber, pallets — anything. A trailer that is paying in both directions costs roughly 40% less per direction, and we pass that through rather than pocketing it.
Order in trailer-sized increments
Half a trailer costs nearly the same as a full one, so the marginal boxes are close to free provided you have somewhere to put them. Under about 100 boxes, yard pickup or a scheduled lane beats LTL comfortably.
Ship knocked down
Flat-packed boxes ship roughly four times as densely as assembled ones. Assembled delivery only makes sense when boxes go straight into production the same shift.
Book against your dock hours
We schedule to your window, not ours. If you need a load staged before 7 AM, say so on the quote and we will stage it the night before.
Serving Conroe & The Woodlands — common questions
How quickly can you deliver to Conroe & The Woodlands?
Same day. Deep-stock sizes are available for same-day pickup from the yard at 1050 E Richey Rd, Houston, TX 77073 if you would rather collect.
Do you buy used boxes in Conroe & The Woodlands?
Yes. Minimum for a dedicated pickup is roughly 100 boxes, fewer if we already run a route near you. Boxes must be dry; beyond that we grade on arrival and pay by category.
What does freight add per box?
It depends on quantity and whether the trailer pays in both directions. We quote landed cost — box price plus linehaul, fuel and accessorials — because a per-box price without freight attached answers a question your controller did not ask.
Can you collect baled fiber from Conroe & The Woodlands?
Yes, weighed on a certified scale with the ticket issued the same day. It also makes an excellent return leg for a delivery, which is how customers on this lane get the best per-box pricing.
Do you deliver outside your listed areas?
Louisiana, Oklahoma and Arkansas on planned lanes. Past roughly 400 miles freight usually exceeds the value of the boxes, and we will say so rather than sell you a bad number.
