Many companies around the UK and Ireland now have a serious focus on recycling. The volume of recycling carried out by businesses increases every year, and it is essential to generate revenue from recycling collections. One core element of recycling for businesses is the build-up of pallets that goods both arrive and leave on. For many, this build-up of pallets can seem like an insignificant issue to begin with, but as more and more space is lost to excess or unwanted pallets, it is important to sustainably offload them at a good price.
At Junction 4 Pallets, we understand the need for good rebates for good pallets and unlike waste management companies, we understand pallets, with the guarantee that unwanted timber equipment will be recycled ethically. We reuse and recirculate pallets through the supply chain. This way, we can be sure that we limit the amount of good pallets which are recycled into a timber raw material and that we can always afford to give you the most competitive price for your pallets.
Many waste management companies will offer pallet collections as part of their overall service offer. Whilst this may seem positive, the result is that a variety of waste companies do not specialise in pallets or timber packaging and its resulting waste stream. This means they often don’t understand the asset and the pricing that comes with it.
In the recent past, waste management companies in the UK have been caught illegally exporting recycling material to less fortunate and often impoverished countries around the world, leaving locals to clean up their mess. This waste designated for recycling is then burnt or buried in landfills. This practice directly contradicts the sustainable messages that waste management companies openly promote. Not only this but working with non-compliant waste management companies can result in penalties including prosecution.
With Junction 4 Pallets, you can be sure that when we take away your pallets, we always reuse it in line with our circular economy philosophy of a brown, not green, biomass world. The circular economy is based on the idea that reuse is better than recycling as it prolongs the time the asset or material stores carbon for, therefore reducing greenhouse gasses and global warming.
Whilst environmental concern is paramount, as a business, it is essential for service companies to be efficient and reliable. Time and time again, our customers tell horror stories about the inconsistent, late and unreliable service provided by other companies. We know how hard it is for businesses to plan their non-inventory flows effectively. At Junction 4 Pallets, we plan and support on your behalf.
