Our Services

RPS will work with you to develop a comprehensive pallet sourcing plan, incorporating a complete assessment and analysis of your needs that will help identify the best design and source of new or reconditioned pallets for you. Our aim is to deliver a fit for purpose and best cost pallet solution to effectively meet your supply chain requirements.

Our RPS pallet recovery service can then be utilised to help reduce your reliance on new pallet purchases by arranging for your existing pallets to be collected from your customers and re-used on an ongoing basis. RPS's strategic haulage links ensure collections can be completely quickly and reliably across the UK, Ireland and Europe.

Your pallets are your assets! It makes both commercial and environmental sense to recover them from your customers. Our experience indicates that recovering and re-using your pallets is up to 50% less expensive then continually buying new pallets. It can also help significantly with your environmental packaging strategy.

The RPS pallet recovery service is a simple process - collect, inspect, sort, repair and return. It is, however, expertly implemented by our experienced and dedicated team. RPS has many years experience of the techniques needed to maximise pallet and packaging return levels and significant in-house expertise on pallet management. Our proud boast is that we never send a pallet to landfill. All our pallet timbers are either re-used or recycled.

There are no entry costs for this service and no financial risks. RPS only invoices you for the recovered pallets once they are returned to your site... at a level significantly less than the costs of a new pallet.

Recovery rates can vary depending on client commitment to the recovery process, but typically we recover between 50-80% of our clients' pallets for them to re-use.

A further service that RPS offers to its established clients is pallet clearances. Over time, most companies receive significant numbers of pallets and other transit packaging materials from their suppliers. If the pallets are not recovered by these suppliers they can quickly mount up, occupying valuable space and incurring potentially expensive packaging disposal costs.

RPS will collect unwanted pallets and other selected packaging items for existing and new clients. We will then process these materials, following our ethos of 're-use, reduce and recycle'. Everything will be re-used in some form and not one pallet will be sent to landfill. If you are interested in this service, contact us now for a free survey!

RPS can recover a variety of forms of transit packaging as well as pallets. Currently we recover big bags, drums, composite IBCs and crates for our clients. If there are worthwhile commercial and environmental benefits to be achieved through recovery, we will work with you to develop mutually beneficial solutions.

We are also happy to work in partnership with you on a variety of other packaging related services. For example, you may want us to prepare your annual packaging waste compliance submission to ensure full compliance at least cost, appraise your current packaging strategy or simply talk through ideas to help reduce your total packaging spend.

Using our extensive packaging knowledge, we aim to develop long term relationships with our clients and, as such, take an innovative approach to solving your packaging problems. We would be delighted to help you with your packaging requirements at anytime, so please contact us.
