Balfour Beatty’s PunchOut
Read More about Balfour Beatty’s PunchOutWooden pallet collection and disposal service
Wooden pallets in need of disposal will quickly fill a skip or container, increasing the number of times you will pay to have it emptied.
Scheduled wooden pallet collection servicesUnwanted wooden pallets take up space quickly — and tipping them into a skip or general waste container only drives up your collection costs. Reconomy provides a scheduled wooden pallet collection and disposal service for businesses across the UK, handling all types of pallets including broken and damaged ones, with no hidden fees and a guaranteed recycling outcome.
Every wooden pallet Reconomy collects is processed through a 3-stage waste hierarchy to ensure nothing goes to landfill:
- Reuse — Where pallets are in good condition, we seek to reuse them directly. Those with minor damage are repaired and returned to service wherever possible.
- Recycle — Pallets that cannot be repaired are recycled into secondary products such as wooden briquettes, animal bedding, or garden mulch.
- Recover — Any pallets unable to be reused or recycled are sent to energy recovery facilities, where they are converted into biomass fuel.
This approach reflects Reconomy’s commitment to the circular economy. As a CDP Supplier Engagement Leader 2025 and signatory to the UN Global Compact, we hold ourselves to the highest standards of sustainable resource management.
