Wooden Pallets, UK sizes

In many situations, recycled or reconditioned pallets are the natural choice. Some of the benefits of using recycled pallets are: 

• New pallets attract packaging waste and have cost implications to customer. Reconditioned pallets don't.
• Used pallets are exempt from the packaging waste regulations - so there is less administration and paperwork for you
• Recycled pallets are a cheaper, ofter more readily available option
• Reconditioned pallets may often be stronger than new ones (providing they are repaired to their original specification). Recent USA research showed that the average used pallet is 13% stronger than new, because air drying (seasoning) during usage increases the wood strength.
