From single-pallet deliveries to full truckloads, our fleet covers the entire Portland metro area with same-day capability.
Portland Boxes operates a dedicated fleet of vehicles specifically configured for corrugated box transportation. Unlike general freight carriers, our trucks are optimized for the unique handling requirements of cardboard -- clean, dry cargo areas with proper ventilation, restraint systems designed for palletized boxes, and crews trained in corrugated material handling.
Whether you need a small batch of boxes delivered to your storefront or a full truckload moved to a warehouse, our logistics team builds a plan that minimizes cost while maximizing reliability. Every vehicle in our fleet is GPS-tracked, and our dispatchers monitor routes in real time so you always know where your shipment is.
Order by noon and receive your boxes the same business day. Our GPS-tracked fleet ensures on-time delivery across the Portland metro area.
Set up recurring pickup schedules for your used boxes and recyclables. Weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly -- we flex to your needs.
Need a large quantity delivered at once? Our box trucks handle up to 24 pallets per load for warehouse restocking and large projects.

From one-time deliveries to complex multi-stop routes, we have a scheduling option that fits your operations.
Order as needed. Place a request through our portal or by email. Standard orders are fulfilled next business day. No commitment or contract required.
For urgent needs, order before noon and receive delivery by end of business day. GPS tracking lets you monitor your delivery in real time. Available Monday through Friday.
Set a fixed day and time for weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly deliveries or pickups. Our system generates orders automatically. Adjust quantities anytime with 48 hours notice.
Need deliveries to multiple locations? We consolidate stops into efficient routes, saving you money on per-stop fees. Ideal for businesses with multiple warehouses or retail locations.
Some loads require extra care. Our team is trained and equipped for these specialized transportation needs.
For boxes destined for food, pharmaceutical, or electronics packaging, we use enclosed vehicles with climate monitoring to prevent moisture damage during transport.
Gaylord containers, industrial triple-wall boxes, and palletized loads exceeding standard dimensions are handled with our flatbed trucks and heavy-duty forklifts.
Need boxes delivered inside your building? Our crew will bring pallets to your specified location -- stockroom, production floor, or upper levels (elevator access required).
For retail environments or events, we can unpack pallets and arrange boxes where you need them. Ideal for trade shows, pop-up shops, and store restocking.
Industrial boxes previously used for non-hazardous materials that require special handling documentation. We maintain proper manifests and chain-of-custody records.
Need a delivery outside standard business hours? Early morning, evening, and Saturday deliveries can be arranged for an additional scheduling fee.
To ensure safe and efficient deliveries, here is what we need to know about your receiving location. If your facility does not have a loading dock, that is perfectly fine -- all our box trucks are equipped with hydraulic lift gates for ground-level delivery.
For the smoothest possible delivery experience, please provide the following information when scheduling your first delivery. After that, we save your site details in our system so you never have to repeat them.
We believe you should always know where your delivery is and when it will arrive. Our communication systems keep you informed at every step without requiring you to call in for updates.
Immediate email confirmation with order details, estimated delivery window, and a tracking link.
On the morning of delivery, you receive an updated ETA via text or email based on actual route conditions.
Click your tracking link to see your delivery on a live map. Know exactly how many stops away your driver is.
An automatic text and email notification when the driver is 15 minutes away, giving your team time to prepare.
