Pallet Removal in Fort Worth

Pallets are the most reliably recurring waste stream in the Alliance corridor. They arrive whether you want them or not, they stack faster than anyone plans for, and above a certain height they become a genuine fire-code problem.

Why the pallet stack becomes a problem

A stack of wooden pallets is a substantial fuel load, and fire codes limit how high and how close to a building they can be stored. Most sites discover this during an inspection rather than in advance.

They are also a forklift obstruction and, in a yard, an ideal habitat for pests. None of which matters much at twenty pallets and matters a great deal at three hundred.

The fix is unglamorous: clear them regularly, before the stack becomes a project.

What we collect

Broken pallets

Split stringers, missing boards, anything no longer safe to load. The bulk of the volume.

Surplus good pallets

Where you have more than you can use and no return arrangement.

Odd-size and custom pallets

Non-standard sizes with no resale or exchange route.

Crates and skids

Timber shipping crates, one-way skids and export packaging.

Dunnage and blocking

The loose timber that arrives packed around freight.

Plastic pallets

Damaged plastic pallets and totes taken as non-hazardous waste.

Before you book, check whether they are worth something

Good-condition standard-size pallets sometimes have a resale or exchange value, and a pallet recycler may collect them at no cost or even pay for them. If a large proportion of your stack is sound, that is worth a phone call first.

Where the stack is mostly broken — which is the usual case — no recycler wants it, and removal is a disposal job. We will tell you honestly which situation you appear to be in from a photograph.

  • Sound standard pallets may have value elsewhere
  • Broken and odd-size stacks generally do not
  • Send a photograph and we will say which
  • Mixed stacks are common and still straightforward

FAQ

Pallet Removal in Fort Worth — common questions

How many pallets fit in a load?
It depends on condition and whether they can be stacked or need breaking down. Send a photograph of the stack and we will give you a figure rather than a guess.
Can you collect from the yard rather than the dock?
Yes. Yard collection is often easier because there is room to work without occupying a dock position.
Should I try a pallet recycler first?
If most of your stack is sound standard-size pallets, yes — that may cost nothing. For a mostly broken stack, no recycler will want it and disposal is the realistic route.
Can you set up a recurring collection?
Yes, and for sites taking regular inbound freight it is the arrangement that makes sense. Weekly or monthly, with the crew already inducted.
