Employers include Keystone Powdered Metal, FleetNet America and Bradington-Young furniture.
Cherryville sits on NC 274, with NC 150 and NC 279, in the northwest of Gaston County. Employers include Keystone Powdered Metal, FleetNet America and Bradington-Young furniture. Powdered metal automotive parts, furniture, modular homes and polyurethane products are the four lines in the market data.
Powdered metal is dense and wants a short box with a full flap bottom. Furniture and modular-home components want tall, light ones. If your stack is small, send it anyway.
Cherryville empties come from powdered-metal parts, furniture, modular homes and polyurethane products. Powdered-metal parts are heavy, so the boxes are strong and the bottoms full flap. Furniture and modular-home components are tall and light. Polyurethane may mean liners. Describe each lane separately and the request will be easy to read.
The lanes on this page: powdered metal automotive parts, furniture, modular homes, and polyurethane products.
Cherryville names powdered-metal automotive parts, furniture, modular homes and polyurethane products, with Keystone Powdered Metal, FleetNet America and Bradington-Young among its employers. Powdered-metal parts are dense, so those boxes are strong, short and full flap. Furniture and modular-home components are bulky and light, so tall, 2‑wall or 3‑wall. Polyurethane may leave boxes with a foam or chemical history. Write each family as its own line, and say if any box has absorbed an odor.
Cherryville docks mix powdered-metal boxes, furniture and polyurethane, and each needs different staging. Set powdered-metal boxes on pallets with full flaps closed. Stand furniture boxes upright against a dry wall and strap them. Mark any polyurethane box that carries an odor. Keep a short sheet by the stack with counts for each family. If trucks reach the dock by a road with a weight or turn limit, say so in the request.
Cherryville docks that handle powdered-metal parts have a specific concern: fine metal dust can sit in the corners. Tap a box over a clean sheet and look. If dust falls, say so. A polyurethane or furniture lot has other concerns, such as foam crumbs or adhesive. Naming them in the request makes the right buyer easier to find.
Lincolnton and Shelby are the nearest other cities, and Gastonia is the closest large one. A truck from here runs to a bigger dock quickly, which helps a small pile. The county page is Gaston County, which the market data describes this way: Textile and thread county west of Charlotte across the Catawba River, with truck plants in Mount Holly and Gastonia.
In Cherryville, a powdered-metal parts dock might have eight 5‑wall boxes at 40 x 40 x 24 in with full flap bottoms, and a furniture line might have thirty tall 2‑wall boxes at 48 x 40 x 48 in. Add the ZIP once and note whether trucks reach the dock easily. A line apiece, a ZIP and a sentence about access make a request that gets a clear answer.
Lincolnton and Shelby are the city pages that border the Cherryville side of the county.
That is worth mentioning in the request if your dock has limited truck access, since a smaller dock may need a different move than a large one with a leveler.
Count, footprint and wall count are enough to start.
