Sustainability
Reuse is the whole point
A used pallet returned to service is the lowest-impact pallet available, and it is also the cheapest. That alignment is why reuse leads everything we do with recovered stock.
Our approach
What we do, in order of preference
Every pallet that comes in is assessed against this order rather than sorted straight to waste.
- Reuse — graded and returned to commercial service wherever it is suitable
- Repair — where a repair safely returns a pallet to service
- Material recovery — timber recovered and recycled into other products
- Disposal — last resort only, handled lawfully and documented
Buying used pallets is itself the circular option: the timber is already in circulation, the pallet already exists, and keeping it working is the best use of it. Where new or bespoke pallets are genuinely required, we build them to specification so they last rather than fail early.
Claims we do not make
We do not publish a zero-to-landfill figure, a recycling percentage or a carbon saving per pallet. Those numbers require measured, auditable evidence and we do not currently hold it. We would rather describe the process honestly than quote a statistic we cannot support.
Compliance
Waste movements are carried out under our upper-tier registration CBDU152029 (upper-tier carrier, broker and dealer), with waste transfer documentation provided where applicable. Pooled pallets such as CHEP, LPR and IPP remain the property of the pool operator and are handled accordingly.
Surplus pallets on site?
Send quantities, condition and the postcode. If the stock is reusable it may carry a value; if it is not, it still needs to leave site properly.
