How Our Pallet Pickup Service Works
Unwanted pallets take up valuable floor space, create safety hazards, and can attract pests if left sitting outdoors. Instead of paying for disposal or dealing with the hassle yourself, let us handle it. Our pallet pickup service is simple, fast, and — on qualifying quantities — completely free.
Step 1: Call or Request Online
Contact us by phone at (213) 703-5326 or submit a request through our online quote form. Let us know approximately how many pallets you have, whether they are stacked or scattered, and your location. Photos are helpful but not required.
Step 2: We Schedule the Pickup
We will confirm a pickup date and time that works for your operation. In most cases, we can schedule a pickup within 24 to 48 hours of your request. We are flexible — we can come during business hours or arrange after-hours pickups for facilities that operate around the clock.
Step 3: We Load and Haul
Our crew arrives with the truck and handles all loading. You do not need to move, stack, or prepare the pallets in any special way. Whether they are on your dock, in your parking lot, behind your building, or scattered across a construction site — we pick them up and take them away. Your space is cleared and ready for productive use.
What Kind of Pallets Do We Pick Up?
We accept virtually all types of wood pallets, regardless of condition.
- Broken pallets: Missing boards, cracked stringers, split blocks — we take them all.
- Old and weathered pallets: Pallets that have been sitting outside, exposed to rain and sun, with surface deterioration.
- Surplus pallets: Extra pallets from deliveries that you have no use for and no room to store.
- Non-standard sizes: Odd dimensions, oversized platforms, and one-off pallets that are hard to resell or reuse.
- Mixed pallets: Stacks containing a variety of sizes, conditions, and types — we sort it out after pickup.
- Heat treated and stamped pallets: ISPM-15 pallets that are no longer needed for export operations.
The only pallets we cannot accept are those contaminated with hazardous materials (chemicals, biohazards, or radioactive substances). If you are unsure whether your pallets qualify, give us a call and describe the situation.
Is Pallet Pickup Really Free?
For large quantities of pallets — typically 50 or more — we offer free pickup and removal. The pallets have value to us as raw material for refurbishment, recycling, and resale, so the transaction works for both sides: you get your space cleared at no cost, and we get material to work with.
For smaller quantities, there may be a nominal pickup fee to cover transportation costs. The fee depends on your location and the number of pallets. We are always upfront about costs — there are no surprises. Call us and we will give you an honest answer about whether your pickup qualifies as free or what the fee would be.
We also buy pallets outright from businesses that have large, consistent volumes of quality pallets. If you receive regular pallet deliveries and have surplus stock accumulating, we can set up a recurring pickup schedule and pay you for the pallets. This is common with warehouses, distribution centers, and retail chains that receive palletized deliveries daily.
Pallet Pickup Coverage Across Southern California
Our trucks run daily routes through the busiest industrial corridors in Southern California. Because we are based on East 12th Street in the heart of the LA industrial zone, we can reach most locations within an hour — which is how we keep pickup turnaround under 48 hours for the majority of requests.
We cover all of Los Angeles County including the Vernon-Commerce industrial belt, the port district from Wilmington to Long Beach, and every neighborhood in between. Our routes also extend into Orange County, the Inland Empire warehouse corridor along the I-10 and I-15, the San Fernando Valley, and the South Bay.
For a full breakdown of every city and zone we serve, check our service areas page. If your location is not listed, call us — we likely cover it or can arrange a special trip for larger quantities.
Common Pallet Pickup Scenarios
Every pickup is different. Here are the situations we handle most often across Los Angeles:
- Post-delivery dock clearing: Your morning deliveries left 40 pallets stacked on the dock and your afternoon shipment needs that space. We come in between and clear it out.
- End-of-project cleanups: A construction job wraps up and there are pallets scattered across the site mixed with lumber scraps. We sort and haul everything.
- Recurring overflow: Your warehouse generates 80-100 surplus pallets per week from incoming freight. We set up a standing Tuesday pickup so they never pile up.
- Emergency removal: A fire marshal or property manager flagged your pallet stack as a hazard. We can often get there same-day to resolve it.
- Tenant move-outs: A commercial tenant vacated and left hundreds of pallets behind in the unit. We clear the space so you can re-lease it.
- Seasonal surges: Holiday inventory brought in triple the usual pallet volume. We handle the post-season cleanup.
What Happens to the Pallets We Pick Up?
Nothing goes to waste. Every pallet we collect from your location goes through our sorting and processing operation at our Los Angeles yard. Pallets in good structural condition are inspected, repaired if needed, and returned to circulation for businesses that need them. Damaged pallets that cannot be repaired are dismantled and the lumber is recycled into new pallets or other wood products.
This recycling process is why we can offer free pickup on large quantities — the materials have value to us even when they have no value to you. It also means your business is diverting wood waste from landfills and contributing to a more sustainable supply chain in Los Angeles.
Have pallets in reusable condition? We also buy pallets from businesses with consistent surplus volume.
Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can you schedule a pallet pickup?
In most cases, we can arrange a pickup within 24 to 48 hours of your call. For urgent situations where pallets are blocking your operations or creating safety issues, we do our best to accommodate same-day or next-day pickups. Call us at (213) 703-5326 and let us know your situation.
Is there a minimum number of pallets for free pickup?
Free pickup is typically available for quantities of 50 or more pallets. For smaller quantities, there may be a nominal transportation fee depending on your location. We are always transparent about costs before scheduling the pickup.
Do I need to stack or prepare the pallets before pickup?
No. Our crew handles all loading, regardless of how the pallets are arranged. Whether they are neatly stacked on your dock, scattered across a parking lot, or piled behind your building, we take care of it. The easier the access for our truck, the faster the pickup goes — but we do not require any preparation on your part.
