Pallet Recycling

Good Wood Gets Reused. The Rest Gets Recycled.

Pallet recycling is a real part of how the shop runs. When a business ends up with pallets it doesn't need, we sort through the load, reuse what can be used, and recycle the rest.

Pallets are checked first. If parts are broken or the wrong size, they are broken down, cut to 40 inches when needed, reconditioned when possible, and assembled back into usable pallets. Small wood pieces, dust, and unusable parts go into the black wood recycling trailer.

Less Lumber Cut

Reusing pallet wood means fewer trees go down and more usable material stays in rotation.

Less Landfill Waste

Usable pallets and lumber stay in rotation; small scrap, unusable pieces, and sawdust are separated for recycling.

In the Shop

How Pallets Move Through Production.

Anthony wanted the operation shown from start to finish: check, dismantle, cut, recondition or assemble, stack, and move out for delivery.

01Dismantler

Pallets are checked first. If something is broken or not the right size, the dismantler breaks the pallet down into boards with little to no damage.

02Radial Arm Saw

Boards that need sizing are cut down to 40 inches before they move to reconditioning or assembly.

03AReconditioning Area

This is the reconditioning area for #1 and #2 pallets, where usable boards are worked back into pallets that can handle the load they are meant for.

03BRT Pallet Machine

Good parts that do not need reconditioning go to the RT pallet machine, where boards are nailed together into pallets.

04Stack Pallet Machine

The stacker holds 20 pallets. Each loaded pallet moves up, making room for the next one on the rollers.

05Forklift

When the stacker is full, a forklift moves the load into a truck or against the wall, ready to be delivered.
