Gloucester is a straightforward run up the M5 to junctions 11 and 12. We deliver into the city and the surrounding estates — Quedgeley, Barnwood, Hempsted and Gloucester Business Park at Brockworth.
Our own HGVs, loaded at our Bideford factory and driven by our own drivers. Larger crates arrive on one vehicle in one delivery rather than being split across a network.
Gloucestershire has a long-established aerospace and engineering cluster. Components are high-value and frequently export-bound — bespoke cases built to drawing, with ISPM 15 treatment where solid timber is used.
The M5 corridor through Gloucester carries serious distribution volume. New pallets in quantity to a consistent specification, plus collection of the empties.
The Severn Vale’s food and farming businesses need hard-wearing pallets that survive repeated handling and washing down.
Fabricated assemblies rarely fit a standard pallet. We design the crate around the item, including skid bases and lifting provision for the heavy end of it.
Yes — on our own fleet from Bideford, covering Gloucester and Gloucestershire.
Yes. Send the drawing or the packing specification and we will build to it. We heat-treat and mark to ISPM 15 on site under registration FC0542.
A timber crate is stronger and better for heavy, rough-handled loads. A plywood riveted case is lighter, collapsible for return or storage, and exempt from ISPM 15 because plywood is a processed board. Which is right depends on weight, destination and whether the case comes back.
Yes — from a single one-off case up to ongoing pallet contracts.
We also collect and recycle used & surplus pallets across Gloucester on our own fleet — find out about collection & recycling, and ask about an ongoing contract for your new pallet supply.
Our fleet also runs into Cheltenham, Stroud, Tewkesbury, Cirencester, Ross-on-Wye, Newent and the Forest of Dean. If you are outside Gloucester, call 01237 423772 and we will tell you straight whether you are on a route.
