1. They are eco friendly
Pallets are a sustainable solution for packaging and warehouse logistics. Pallets get reused multiple times, when they finally hit the end of their life cycle these get recycled into other products such as mulch and pet bedding. According to a 2018 Virginia Tech research, wooden pallets are recycled at a 95% rate. Moreover, according to the National Wooden Pallet & Container Association, the recycling of wooden pallets removes equivalent of 2.9 million cars from our Nation’s roadway each year. At Guero’s Pallets we keep sustainability as priority, we recycle 99% of all wood products and reuse 100% of the wooden pallets that come into our facility.
2. Pallets give jobs
Thanks to pallets people have jobs. Pallets go through a process in order to be able to be used, reused and recycled. For instance, 48x40 #1 and 48x40 #2 are usually repaired. When pallets are not able to be repaired, these are dismantled with machinery such as a Pallet Hawg. Pallet builders make pallets from new and/or recycled material. Forklift drivers load and unload the empty pallets to be shipped to customers such as warehouses and packaging companies. The need for pallet labor doesn’t end there, these must be unloaded from the customer, opening the doors for more jobs. According to the National Wooden Pallet & Container Association 67,000 Americans are employed in jobs directly related to wooden pallets and container manufacturing.
