Switching from one service provider to another can be a nightmare. The amount of financial risk involved as well as the time commitment commercial managers and others must invest means switching suppliers can be the last thing anybody wants. At Junction 4 Pallets, we understand this and ask the question: Why should you switch your pallet collection provider?
Most companies want to get the best price possible for their pallets. Often, most pallet collection services won’t offer you the best possible rate purely on the basis they can’t sort through the volume of pallets fast enough, resulting in higher levels of ‘scrapped’ pallets and less favourable returns. A lot of pallet collection companies scrap more pallets than they should because it’s quicker and easier than sifting through each one and making a thorough judgement. At Junction 4 Pallets, we have invested millions of pounds in Pallet Sorting Systems (PSS), a machine that automates most of the pallet sortation process. By being able to efficiently work through the pallets you give us, we are able to give you the highest possible return. Not only this, but it means our sortation time is market-leading, resulting in prompt payment.
Many pallet collection services don’t collect quickly enough. This is often down to a lack of transport capability. Most pallet collection services don’t have the transport network to rely on which means there’s a delay in getting pallets off your sites. Pallet build-up on site can have grave consequences, leading to a lack of free warehouse space and in some cases, a loss in revenue. Junction 4 Pallets recognises this and possesses a comprehensive fleet of vehicles that means we can reach anywhere in the UK within 48 hours. Not only this, but our vehicle fleet gives us flexibility, meaning we can collect any day of the week, day or night or even put a stand trailer on-site so you can load it as and when, reducing the amount of floor space taken up.
Finally, a lot of businesses use waste management firms to collect their pallets. Waste management firms don’t distinguish pallets from their other waste streams and pay per tonne not per pallet. Waste management firms might not understand the value of your pallets, paying you a lower rate than you should receive, or worse, they knowingly play down the value of your pallets and rip you off. At Junction 4, we pay per pallet because we know that is the fairest way to give you value. We are pallet experts and are more than willing to spend the time making sure you get good money for your assets.
