WHAT WE DO

The John Rock, Inc. facility is not just any building. It is the culmination of a long sought after dream. This building is a highly designed multi-function operation with a pinpoint focus that allows Bill’s guiding principle “Be the Best” to come to life.

Outside you can find one of the nation’s largest heat treatment/sterilization chambers, a truck, trailer & forklift maintenance facility, a trailer staging yard, the wood waste grinding operations, sawdust and mulch storage, the “used pallet” sorting and storage yard and the largest raw material lumber yard anywhere.

John Rock, Inc. is centrally located in eastern Pennsylvania, the prime geographical position for quickly and efficiently servicing the Mid-Atlantic and lower New England regions and the largest industrialized manufacturing corridor in the United States if not the world. This region includes a wide range of industries, such as petrochemical, pharmaceutical, automotive, technology, clothing, new construction, as well as food manufacturing, all requiring wooden pallets to conduct business.

In addition to being close to the customer base, this prime location also allows John Rock to take advantage of the significant and plentiful certified sustainable Appalachian forest regions of Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia and Maryland. Having access to this large hardwood region gives John Rock creative and cost-effective opportunities for sourcing raw material unavailable elsewhere in the country.

ROCK TECHNOLOGIES

Rock Technologies is the trucking division of John Rock Inc. With a fleet of over 65 power units and 300 trailers including flatbeds, drop decks and van trailers for hauling, pallets, lumber and backhauls of various items. 

Over the past few years erratic energy costs have complicated an already difficult market. Transportation of products for all industry has become a major hurdle to overcome. Rock Technologies was formed as the transportation arm of John Rock Inc. to deal with these emerging challenges for John Rock and our customers. By maintaining complete control of our fleet, we can directly coordinate every order to ensure timely delivery to our customers.

Whether delivering our own pallets, picking up raw material or delivering our customer’s products, John Rock continues to develop and implement enhanced “loop systems,” a proven transportation partnership which adds value to our existing relationships and offers each participating partner a little bit bigger “piece of the pie.”
