Delivery and freight
Heat matters in Arizona storage; board stored in very hot, dry buildings can become brittle, so keep stock out of direct sun. The Phoenix page lists the busiest warehouse ZIPs.

Worth knowing in Arizona
Heat and low humidity make board in Arizona dry and stiff. Very dry board can crack at the score lines, especially in cold early mornings after hot days. Erect cartons in a conditioned area if you can, and store bundles away from dock doors and skylights. Phoenix also hosts a large returns and reverse-logistics trade, where incoming goods are inspected and repacked; those buildings use mixed carton sizes and plenty of mailers.
