Pallet pooling involves collecting pooled pallets from locations where they are no longer required and redistributing them to where demand exists. Effective transport and coordination are essential to keep pallets moving through the network and maintain availability across the supply chain. We support leading pallet pooling companies with collection and redistribution services across the UK and Europe.
Closed-loop logistics manages the movement of assets or products through a cycle rather than treating each delivery as a one-way journey. In equipment pooling, this can involve collecting reusable pallets, containers or other assets, returning them to the pooling network and repositioning them for their next use.Â
Recovering and repositioning reusable assets helps prevent equipment from becoming stranded in the wrong location. For pooling networks, timely recovery can help maintain asset availability, improve circulation, and reduce unnecessary waste and inefficiency across the supply chain.
