Who orders boxes in South Carolina
Parts and assembly plants need heavy cartons, partitions and pallet-size bulk boxes. The Charleston port's Wando Welch Terminal can handle 2.4 million TEUs and has 1,274 reefer slots, so export packing, much of it in triple wall, is a steady need. Lexington, York and Greenville counties led warehousing.

Worth knowing in South Carolina
Upstate plants near Greer, Spartanburg and Greenville supply vehicle assembly with sequenced parts, and many use corrugated bulk boxes with dividers that must fit a particular rack or conveyor. Get the outside dimensions as well as the inside, because those boxes have to fit equipment as well as product. Along the coast, Charleston exporters need board rated for long ocean voyages, where container humidity is high and stacks sit for weeks.
