Our Pallet Removal Services

Flexible recovery solutions for excess pallets, from scheduled collection and buyback to recycling and ongoing management.

Pallet Pickup

Schedule on-call or recurring collection of used, damaged, or excess pallets from your dock area. Pickup programs help clear valuable floor space while keeping pallet recovery organized.

Pallet Buyback

Eligible pallets may qualify for a direct per-pallet buyback rate or trade-in credit toward future pallet supply. Value is based on grade, volume, and pickup distance.

Pallet Recycling

Used pallets are sorted for reuse, repair, recycling, or end-of-life processing. The program can provide documentation to support waste-diversion and circular-economy reporting.

Closed-Loop Programs

Combine pallet delivery and used-pallet pickup in one coordinated program. Recovered pallets are graded, and qualifying trade-in credit can be applied against future pallet purchases.

Pallet Grading

Recovered pallets are evaluated as Grade A, Grade B, repair candidates, or recycling-only material. Clear grading helps determine the most practical recovery path.

Free Removal Options

High-volume qualifying accounts may be eligible for free pallet removal when usable pallet volume offsets collection costs. Program terms are evaluated by location and pallet condition.

Smarter Pallet Recovery

Turn Excess Pallets Into Value

Discarded pallets do not have to become a disposal expense. Skid Management Services creates recovery programs around your pallet volume, condition, and operating schedule, from one-time removal to recurring pickup. Usable pallets can be purchased or credited toward new supply, repair candidates can re-enter circulation, and end-of-life wood can be recycled. You gain a cleaner dock, simpler operations, and a more productive pallet stream.
