Export Pallets in Oxford and Oxfordshire
Oxfordshire is the inland edge of our core supply area. Oxford, Abingdon, Didcot, Wantage and the surrounding business parks are supplied from our Southampton operation, which makes dispatch planning the thing worth getting right: the pallets need to be on site before the load is built, not on the same morning.
This page is intended for manufacturing, science and technology businesses and contract packers in the county — the kind of requirement where machined equipment, instruments or project cargo means the pallet is specified around the load rather than pulled from a standard stack.
Export buying guidance for Oxfordshire shippers
Treated stock and new build both depend on current intake and capacity, so the earlier you can give us the dispatch date, the more options are open. Send the postcode, quantity and date and we will confirm what is achievable rather than assume a lead time.
Check what your buyer has actually specified before you order. A footprint, a CP number or an EPAL requirement are separate questions from whether the pallet needs an IPPC mark for the destination.

Planning inland dispatch
Working inland from the coast, the sensible order is destination first, specification second, delivery date third. Once we know where the consignment is going and what it weighs, we can say whether treated stock or new build is the realistic route and what date we can put the pallets on your site.
Load, specification and handling
Give us the load weight, how it sits on the pallet and whether it is handled by forklift, pallet truck or both. For heavier or awkward Oxfordshire engineering loads, a bespoke build is frequently cheaper than working around a standard footprint that does not fit.
The Berkshire corridor
Reading, Newbury and the wider Berkshire corridor sit between Oxfordshire and the coast and fall inside our supply area. If your sites span both, tell us the postcodes, quantities and dates and the delivery pattern can be planned together rather than as separate jobs.
Surplus and empties
Oxfordshire sites receiving inbound freight often accumulate reusable pallets. Reusable stock may carry a value; mixed or broken stock is assessed for repair, recovery or recycling.
