Pallet Details

We have specific requirements when sending pallets through the network, please review the below notes to avoid delays and additional charges.

Oil and Liquids

When sending any items via our pallet service, in particular engines and gearboxes, please ensure you fully drain any oil / liquids.

If your item is not fully drained of oil/residue you will be charged an additional £85 ex. vat oil leak cleaning charge.

Packaging Requirements

Your items must be packaged and fit for transport, you must ensure the goods are secured on a pallet and that there are no loose items on the pallet.

If sending an engine or gearbox please ensure the goods are placed on cardboard and/or an absorbent layer. This will help catch any residual oil / liquids up to 1 litre. We recommend customers purchase our specially designed oil absorbent mats, to both reduce the risk of contaminating other shipments and/or oil spills. Oil Mats can be purchased for an additional charge, details are below.
