How do I dispose of my delivery pallet?
As part of our pallet delivery service, pallets are left with the customer after delivery. If you don’t wish to keep yours, there are several simple and environmentally friendly ways to dispose of or repurpose it:
• Local Recycling Centres
Most Household Waste & Recycling Centres will accept wooden pallets. We recommend checking your local council’s website for guidance before visiting.
• Bulky Waste Collection
Your local council may offer a bulky waste collection service (sometimes for a small fee). This can be a convenient option if you’re unable to transport the pallet yourself.
• Re-use Within Your Community
Wooden pallets are popular for upcycling and garden projects. Offering the pallet for free on local community groups, Freecycle/Freegle, or Facebook Marketplace is often an easy way to pass it on.
• Repurpose at Home
If you enjoy simple garden or DIY projects, pallets can be used for:
– Raised planters or compost bin bases
– Outdoor storage solutions
– Firewood (if the pallet is untreated)
• Local Tradespeople
Gardeners, builders or handymen in your area may be happy to collect pallets for reuse or disposal.
At Field & Hawken we are committed to reducing waste wherever possible, so we encourage reuse and recycling where you can. If you’re ever unsure, our customer care team is here to help.
