Default Pallet delivery

I am looking for a company that can do kerb side pallet delivery, needs to be reliable and up to 1000kg. Looking at 3 to 5 day service. Its not a one off, but at this exact moment I dont know how often I would use the service just yet.

Anyone know of a company that does this at a decent rate?

hi mate,

i use palletways, but there are loads, best do a search for pallet delivery companies then get price lists off them all, 1 might be cheaper locally another might be cheaper at distance. if you start sending abit with then make sure you arn't paying the full price. my gaffer get a rate of £50 a pallet anywhere in the uk, the going rates are about £20 local up to about £120 for ireland / isle of white

Palletways - Europe's largest and fastest growing provider of express distribution services for small consignments of palletised goods

depends where you are and where they are going

I work for United Pallet Network - The Network That Delivers More

Lots of pallet companies have their good and bad points. All depends on what you prioritise as a customer. Most companies are struggling at the moment so you should find being a potential new customer gives you the advantage.

forgot to say, look at what they offer - some will do good deals for bulk, some have better IT/tracking processes than others, tail lift weight limits, Out Of Gauge OOG tarriffs, better services to the highlands etc.

As I said, think what you proiritise as the most important then ask around.

Thanks chaps, will look into your suggestions.
The main area I want to be able to hit is the south of England really, which I guess will be fairly stright forward for most of them. They would need to be able to carry upto the full 1000kg though.

1000kg is the standard max weight for a pallet, so you shouldn't have any issues there
