England
Thames Estuary, East Anglia and the Channel
This region carries the largest concentration of unitised freight in the UK. Deep-sea container volume arrives at Felixstowe and London Gateway, multipurpose cargo at Tilbury, North Sea ferry traffic at Harwich, and short-sea trailer freight at Dover. The pallet market here is shaped almost entirely by containers and trailers rather than breakbulk.
Request a quoteWhat drives pallet demand here
- Devanning yards near Felixstowe and in Thurrock typically run standing weekly pallet requirements rather than one-off orders.
- Repalletising imported loose cargo onto UK 1200 x 1000 pallets is routine across the region.
- The Kent corridor's customs clearance and groupage operators need fast-response supply for reworked loads.
- Used pallet surpluses can be large here, so collection and purchase enquiries are common alongside supply.
- Booking-controlled sites mean delivery windows and vehicle types must be agreed in advance.

We supply nationally, and we can quote for locations not listed here. Where a facility has no page it is usually because we have nothing specific and verifiable to say about it — not because we cannot serve it.
