Did you know that the wooden pallet industry moves over 1.8 billion pallets every day? These pallets are essential for global logistics, sustainability, and innovation. What do you think is the most impressive stat about the pallet industry? Share your thoughts below!     #PalletsMoveTheWorld #PalletIndustry #Logistics #Sustainability  

#FactOfTheDay: Over the last 6 years I bought, sold, and shipped roughly ~$14 million worth of softwood lumber for the North American #pallet industry. #PalletsMoveTheWorld... Psss, hey you. Shhh - don't tell anyone this... but I sell wholesale KDHT dimensional #lumber. Direct from the sawmill to your front door... Think ~100,000 bf of 2x4's show up on a rail car, or ~30,000 bf on a truckload kinds of volumes. 🌲e.g... (1) 2 x 4 x 8' stick = 5.333 board feet Now who needs (10) Rail/Cars!? A million board feet in your yard never hurt anybody!🌲😉🌲 The overall North American wholesale market is firm. Prices are on the rise and there isn't a lot of extra supply in the upper-grade "MSR" world. Low-grade dimensional softwood is also firm, the bottom happened months ago. It's a pretty healthy market. No big surprises for the month of November and most likely into early December. My wildass speculative guess... We'll see a +0 to $5/mbf, up to $25/mbf on the higher end, for increases on price levels over these next few weeks. Obviously, this is all happening at scale in different regions, with different species, etc. Creating overall price fluctuations. The point I'm trying to make is: The market is definitely not soft. But it's also not going to shatter the roof and surprise people with a +$100/m over the next 2-4 weeks. Maybe over 2-3 months though, we'll see that much of a price increase. The writing is on the wall for a small but healthy run on the market. Guess we'll see if it gets any legs after the Presidential elections this week. We could get a cold bucket of water splashed into the economy. Or it could start ripping again! Your guess is better than mine. What do you think is going to happen to #lumber prices the rest of 2024?
