Bridgwater sits on the M5 at junctions 23 and 24: new pallets for food and distribution, heavy-duty crates for energy and construction work, made in Devon.
Bridgwater’s food factories, distribution sheds and big construction and energy projects all need pallets and crates, in very different shapes. We build both at our 300,000 sq ft factory in Bideford and deliver them on our own lorries to Express Park, Colley Lane, Huntworth and Puriton.
Clean, consistent pallets in volume for food manufacturers and distribution centres.
Skid-based cases for plant, spares and components on energy and construction work.
Heavy-duty crates built to be craned, not just forked.
Timber, board and foam combined for lighter manufactured goods.
Treated and marked FC0542 for loads heading to Avonmouth and Portbury.
Reconditioned pallets, delivered and collected on our Somerset runs.
Also made at Bideford: bespoke wooden pallets, bespoke wooden crates, export crates, osb crates, plywood crates, slatted timber crates, plywood riveted cases, server rack crates, shock pallets, export packaging, export packing services, contract packing, cardboard packaging and packaging and consumables. We also collect and recycle used pallets on our South West runs.
Bridgwater sits right on the M5 at junctions 23 and 24, so it is an easy run for our drivers from Bideford. We deliver into the town and the industrial areas: Express Park, Colley Lane, Huntworth and the Gravity site at Puriton.
Deliveries come on our own HGV fleet, loaded at our factory. For construction and energy work, where a delivery slot is a delivery slot, that direct control matters more than it does for a box of consumables.
Bridgwater’s food manufacturers and distribution centres sit on the M5, a short run from Avonmouth and Royal Portbury. Export pallets leaving the town’s warehouses need the ISPM 15 mark before they reach the port.
Export pallets from Bridgwater’s warehouses are treated in our own kilns at Bideford and marked FC0542 before the M5 run north. Crates and skid cases for energy and construction spares are built from heat-treated timber and stamped at the factory.

Bridgwater has a long-standing food manufacturing base. Clean new pallets to a consistent specification, supplied in volume and delivered to a schedule.
Large construction and energy projects in the area move heavy plant, spares and components. Heavy-duty crates, skid bases and cases built to take a crane rather than a forklift.
Sat on the M5 with warehousing to match. High-volume pallets, consistent sizing, and collection of the empties on our return runs.
Lighter goods that still need to travel safely: hybrid packaging combining timber, board and foam is usually cheaper than an all-timber case and protects just as well.
Yes: regularly, on our own fleet from Bideford, covering Bridgwater and the wider Somerset Levels.
Yes. Send the dimensions, the weight and how it needs lifting. We build skid-based cases designed for the load, not adapted from a standard size.
Yes. Tell us the load, the handling and whether it is going for export, and we will specify board thickness, bearer size and fixing pattern to match, rather than selling you a generic pallet and hoping.
They can be. We heat-treat on site and mark to ISPM 15 under registration FC0542, which is what customs require for solid timber packaging leaving the UK.
Our fleet also runs into Burnham-on-Sea, Highbridge, North Petherton, Street, Glastonbury and Wells. If you are outside Bridgwater, call 01237 423772 and we will tell you straight whether you are on a route.
