The Pallet LOOP enhances offer with three-day collection service

Ten-day service replaced by faster solution to support waste and sustainability goals

Companies using The Pallet LOOP across the UK mainland will now get their pallets picked up faster, as the business introduces a free three-day collection service option.

With immediate effect, all collections booked via The Pallet LOOP’s nationwide recovery network will be completed within three working days – reflecting The Pallet LOOP’s dedication to customer service, supply chain efficiency, and environmental responsibility.

Through this groundbreaking scheme, businesses earn £2 to £4 for every LOOP pallet that is returned, ensuring they are continually reused, while also reducing construction waste.

Part of timber and forestry business BSW Group, The Pallet LOOP previously offered two collection possibilities; a three-day service (with a £100 fee); and a free ten-day option.

LOOP’s free three-day service now becomes the default, replacing the current ten-day offer. Simplifying the collection service will support the UK construction industry in several ways:

• Reduced storage requirements: Shortening the LOOP collections window to three days will help pallet recipients free up valuable yard, site and warehouse space.
• Enhanced sustainability: With a faster collections service, more LOOP pallets re-enter the supply chain more quickly, rather than ending up damaged or in skips.
• Greater customer satisfaction: The speed of collections has been a consistent topic in customer feedback received by The Pallet LOOP, particularly from site managers in large cities, where there is limited space to store pallets.

Andy Williamson, Managing Director of The Pallet LOOP, said: “Offering a prompt collection service is another critical step to closing the loop on pallet waste and delivering on our circular economy model.

“No one wants to see LOOP pallets laying around, taking up valuable space. By guaranteeing collection within three business days, we’re making life easier for customers and ensuring pallets get back into circulation where they belong, as quickly as possible.

“It’s an operational shift that shows us stepping up a gear, which is ultimately a win for the circular economy, building materials supply chain and the environment.”

With The Pallet LOOP’s three-day service, the collection of 50 or more pallets (green and white) is free, but collections of under 50 pallets will incur a £100 charge, while each standard white pallet returned will also cost £2.
