How Pallets Are Commonly Repaired

A common repair removes the damaged board and fastens a replacement in its place. Boards salvaged from other pallets are often used, so a repaired pallet may not match throughout.

A cracked stringer may be reinforced with a plate or a companion board, or replaced altogether. Methods vary by supplier, so ask how the work will be done and how repaired pallets will be graded.

Before You Send a Repair Request

Look through your pallets and separate the ones that are still usable from the ones with damage. A rough count of each type of damage helps a partner supplier reply with useful pricing.

Mention the pallet size, whether they are stringer or block, and whether any carry an IPPC stamp. Also note where the pallets are and whether they need to be picked up.
