Pallets pile up faster than any business plans for. Standard 48x40 pallets in decent shape have resale value and go to a pallet recycler for repair and reuse; broken, odd-size and painted pallets get ground for mulch or biomass fuel. Either way they don't need to sit behind your building attracting complaints and pests. We've hauled pallets on 95 jobs in the last 24 months — some as a few skids on a residential pickup, many as full truckloads from warehouses in Westchester and Elk Grove and retail back rooms across the city. Scheduled pickups keep the dock clear; one-time hauls clear a backlog.

The crew gives you a firm price on the spot
They look at everything and quote one number that covers labor, loading, hauling and disposal. No obligation: if it doesn't work for you, they leave and there's no charge.
-
3
Say yes and it's gone — same visit
The crew carries everything out from wherever it sits, loads it, and sweeps up. Most jobs are finished in that same visit.
-
4
You don't even have to be there
If the crew can reach the items — alley, garage, a doorman or a code — they'll do the job while you're at work, send before-and-after photos, and take payment by phone or with a card on file.
Pallet Removal & Recycling FAQs
Do you pay for pallets?
No — we're a hauling service, not a pallet broker. If you have a large volume of clean 48x40 pallets, a pallet recycler may pick them up for free or pay a small amount; we're glad to point you to one. For mixed, broken or small quantities, we're the fast option.
Do you take plastic pallets?
Yes. They're recycled separately from wood.
Can you pick up on a schedule?
Yes — weekly or monthly pickups for retailers, warehouses and contractors, invoiced per truck.
Do you also take the cardboard and shrink wrap?
Yes, all packaging on the same truck. Cardboard is recycled.
Free Onsite Estimate, One Firm Price
We don't quote by phone. The crew comes out for free, looks at what's going and how it's getting out — stairs, elevators, heavy material — and gives you one number that covers everything. Say yes and they do the job on the spot. Say no and there's no charge.
