The problem

That pallet pile is costing you money.

Stacks of used pallets eat dock space you’re paying for, get in the way of forklifts, and cost money to throw out. Wrightway turns them into a pickup, a payment, and floor space you can use again.

Hauling them to the dump

  • You pay disposal fees
  • Your crew loses time
  • Good wood ends up in a landfill

Selling them to Wrightway

  • Get paid or get free removal
  • We pick up on your schedule
  • Pallets get repaired and reused

How it works

Three steps to a clear dock

Getting a price is quick. A rough count and a phone photo are enough to get started.

1

Tell us what you have

A rough count, the condition, and your location. A phone photo helps us quote accurately.

2

Get a straight price

We quote based on condition and volume. No posted flat rate, just an honest number for your pile.

3

We haul it away

A one-time cleanout, or a recurring schedule that matches how fast your pallets pile up.

What we take

If it’s a 48×40, we want it.

Clean, worn, or busted. We’ll take it off your hands.

Standard 48×40 pallets

Stringer pallets in any condition, including broken boards and cracked stringers.

One-time cleanouts

One large stack taking up space after a move, a project, or years of collecting? We’ll clear it.

Ongoing pickup

For warehouses, distribution centers and manufacturers that generate pallets every week.

Pricing and pickup terms depend on condition, volume and location, so we quote every pickup individually. Have odd sizes too? Ask us. We’ll tell you straight whether we can take them.

Where your pallets go

A pallet shop, not a landfill.

Wrightway has been building, repairing and heat-treating pallets in Howard Lake since 2005. Your used pallets go back to work.

1. Picked upCollected from your dock on your schedule.
2. RepairedGood pallets fixed and sold as reclaimed Grade A or B.
3. ReclaimedBroken ones dismantled and the good lumber reused for repairs.
95%

Independent research from Virginia Tech found that roughly 95 percent of wood pallets in the U.S. are recycled rather than thrown away. We make it easy for Minnesota businesses to be part of that.

FAQ

Common questions

Do you buy broken pallets?

Yes. We buy standard 48×40 stringer pallets in any condition, including broken ones. Broken pallets are dismantled and the good lumber is reclaimed for repairs.

How much will you pay for my pallets?

It depends on condition, volume and location, so we quote every pickup individually rather than posting a flat rate. Send a rough count, the condition, your location and a phone photo, and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How far do you travel for pickups?

Anywhere within about 100 miles of our shop in Howard Lake, MN. That covers the Twin Cities metro, St. Cloud and much of central Minnesota.

Can you pick up on a regular schedule?

Yes. We do one-time cleanouts and recurring pickups for warehouses, distribution centers and manufacturers that generate pallets regularly.

What happens to the pallets you pick up?

Pallets that can be repaired go back into service as reclaimed pallets. The rest are dismantled and the good lumber is used to repair other pallets, so almost nothing ends up in a landfill.

Can I buy pallets from you too?

Yes. Wrightway builds new, reclaimed and custom pallets and crates, with in-house ISPM-15 heat treating. With a pallet management program, your used pallets can be credited against new supply.
