Pallet supply around Port of Plymouth
Plymouth's commercial port activity is split between the Millbay ferry and cargo terminal and the separate Cattewater harbour area, alongside substantial naval and marine engineering activity. It serves the far South West as a direct gateway rather than as a transhipment hub. Consignment sizes are generally smaller than at the estuarial container ports.

The logistics geography
Served by the A38 with links to the M5 at Exeter; the surrounding logistics market covers Plymouth, Saltash, Ivybridge and into south Devon and east Cornwall.
Buying and collection considerations here
- Distance from the main motorway network makes consolidated deliveries more economic than frequent small drops.
- Marine and defence engineering work often needs bespoke timber packing cases and cradles rather than pallets.
- Seafood and chilled handling may point towards plastic pallets for washdown; suitability is assessed per operation.
What we do here
We supply pallets to businesses operating around this port, and we collect or buy surplus pallets where an assessment supports it. That includes road, sea and warehouse load transfer work, plus bearers and dunnage for securing and separating cargo. We are a pallet supplier — we do not act as a freight broker, customs agent or forwarder, and we make no claim to operate inside the port estate or to hold any port or terminal permissions.
