Request a Tampa QuoteWe deliver statewide across Florida, and Tampa — on Florida’s Gulf coast — is served through our Florida-wide delivery program. Orders ship from our Opa-locka warehouse by freight or carrier, so Tampa facilities can buy commercial janitorial, restroom and cleaning supplies at true wholesale case and pallet pricing from a single South Florida source.
We supply offices, restaurants, schools, gyms, medical offices, warehouses, property managers and cleaning companies in Tampa with commercial cleaning supplies, wholesale restroom supplies, paper, can liners, soap and chemicals. Because Tampa ships by freight, contact us for a quote and we’ll confirm delivery timing, minimums and the fastest option for your order.
Tampa sits roughly 280 miles up the Gulf coast from our Opa-locka warehouse, so a Tampa order travels as LTL freight rather than on a local delivery van. That single fact changes what a good order looks like — and once you buy around it, facilities in Tampa usually land better case pricing than a local rep will quote, not worse. Here is how to make the freight work for you instead of against you.
LTL carriers do not price by weight alone. They price by freight class, and since the NMFTA's Docket 2025-1 took effect on 19 July 2025, density is the primary factor, applied across an expanded 13-tier density scale. More than 2,000 commodity items moved to full density-based classification in that change.
Translated into a warehouse: a pallet of bath tissue weighs almost nothing and eats a large block of trailer space. Low density means a high class, which means a high cost per pound. A pallet of liquid cleaner or cased hand soap is the opposite — heavy, compact, cheap to move.
The practical consequence surprises most buyers. The cheapest janitorial order to freight is a mixed pallet, not a paper-only pallet. Pairing light, bulky goods (bath tissue, roll towel, can liners) with dense goods (chemicals, gallon soap, floor pads) lifts the average density of the whole shipment and can move it into a lower class band. Same truck, same products, smaller freight bill. If you are placing a Tampa order, send us the full list rather than just the paper — we will build the pallet to ship well.
The most common mistake a freight-served buyer makes is ordering the way a Miami buyer does: small and often. Every LTL shipment carries its own minimum charge and fuel surcharge, so four small orders in a month means paying those four times over. Consolidating into one larger monthly delivery is where Tampa facilities genuinely save. A standing monthly order does this automatically, and there is no contract attached to it.
Freight quotes are not comparable until these are on the table:
A quote that looks cheaper per case regularly loses to one that already includes liftgate and inside delivery. Tell us the site conditions up front and we will quote them in rather than bolt them on afterwards.
Because replenishment runs on a freight cycle rather than a next-day van run, your safety-stock maths changes. Go deeper on the items that stop work the moment they run out — bath tissue, roll towel, can liners in your primary size, and hand soap — and keep the long tail of specialty chemicals and tools on a slower cadence. Our supplies calculator will size the monthly quantities from your headcount and restroom count, which is the fastest way to work out what a full pallet should contain.
One Gulf-coast note: build the storm buffer before the season is underway, not during it. Our hurricane prep supplies list covers what facilities should hold, and it is far easier to freight in June than in the week a system is being tracked.

Yes. We deliver statewide across Florida. Tampa orders ship by freight or carrier from our Opa-locka warehouse — contact us to confirm timing and minimums for your order.
Because Tampa is served by freight, delivery timing depends on your order size and carrier schedule. Contact us with your list and we’ll confirm the fastest option.
Statewide freight orders may have a minimum to keep shipping efficient. We’ll confirm the minimum and case/pallet pricing for your Tampa order when you request a quote.
On one small order, a local cash-and-carry can win because there is no freight involved. On a full pallet or a standing monthly order, case and pallet pricing from a single wholesale source usually wins even after freight. Ask both suppliers for a delivered price on the same list — that is the only fair comparison.
Think in pallets rather than cases, and mix the pallet. Combining light, bulky paper goods with dense items such as chemicals and gallon soap raises the shipment's average density, which lowers the freight class and the cost to move it.
No. If you have no dock, tell us when you request the quote and we will include a liftgate so the pallet can be lowered to ground level. Quoting it up front avoids an accessorial charge appearing after delivery.
