09 Apr 2021

We offer a plastic pallet recycling service in Southampton. Never has it been so important to put the environment at the forefront of what we do.

To prevent waste in Southampton and the rest of the UK, Plastic Pallets has implemented a quality and environmental management system to the ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015 standards. With these standards in place, we are committed to implementing these standards. Sustainability is very important to us, which is why we offer the plastic pallet recycling service.

Contact our friendly Southampton team today to have your plastic pallets collected for recycling. With Plastic Pallets, you can have your old plastic pallets and boxes collected for recycling. To arrange for a collection, please phone us on our local number, 02380 667 999, or use our online contact form. We look forward to being able to assist you with recycling your unused plastic.

Recycle Plastic Pallets

Have your plastic products recycled by getting in touch with our team to arrange for a collection service. After arranging for a collection, our friendly team will come and collect the plastic. The team are friendly and trained in waste management. Once we’ve collected the plastic, we will take it to our facility, where we’ll sort out which pallets can be recycled. The plastic pallets deemed too damaged are ground down into granules. These granules are then injected into a mould under heat and pressure to form a pallet. There’s no need to dump your plastic pallets when you could get them recycled instead.

Our Commitment

Over 80% of our plastic pallets are manufactured from reclaimed material. Improving plastic’s environmental impact is a key part of what we do. To ensure we do what we can for the environment and to tackle the plastic crisis, we have committed to environmentally friendly and sustainable operations. This involves ensuring our business is run sustainably to help reduce the impact of plastic pallets and crates on the environment.

The main reason we don’t manufacture 100% of our plastic pallets from reclaimed is due to the hygienic requirements for industries within the food or pharmaceutical industry. Additionally, coloured pallets are incredibly difficult to create using recycled material, as most recycled pallets are dark grey or black.

We have systems in place that allow us to measure the quality and progress of our environmental objectives. Our staff are all made aware of the aims and objectives of our Quality and Environmental Management System, which is implemented to meet ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015 standards.

We are incredibly proud of the work we’ve done so far and will continue over the years. For example, in 2019, we recycled over 35 tons of recycled plastic. This was a huge achievement for us. At Plastic Pallets, you can trust us to be committed to our goals of being sustainable and environmentally friendly here at Plastic Pallets. Contact us today to have your plastic pallets collected from your Southampton facility.

Our Collection Service

As we mentioned, a key part of our sustainability practice is to collect and retrieve plastic pallets and crates from businesses. By doing this, we can help reduce the number of plastic pallets that are discarded incorrectly and potentially make their way to a landfill.

By offering this collection service in Southampton, we can help improve sustainability by ensuring that old discarded plastic pallets are recycled responsibly. After refurbishing the pallets, they can be given a new life as used pallets. These used plastic pallets are then added to our product range.

There’s a chance you might be reading this thinking you have a store of old plastic pallets which you no longer need. Not only will this clear up space on Southampton your premises, but it will also benefit the environment and help us tackle the plastic crisis. In some cases, we can pay you for the plastic pallets you want to dispose of, depending on the type and condition. Get in contact today to arrange to have your plastic pallets recycled.
