PalletTrader announced the integration of PalletTrader’s pallet sell-off program into its PalletTrader+ Managed Services console, which transforms how businesses manage pallet inventories.
“Our goal is to provide complete transparency and empower businesses with the tools they need to manage their pallet needs more efficiently,” says Jessica Dzugan, VP, technology and innovation, PalletTrader. “Through our integrated pallet sell-off program, we’re not only helping our customers maximize the value for their scrap pallets and save money but also providing visibility up and down procurement networks.”
Key takeaways:
- With the updated offering, businesses managed under PalletTrader+ can effortlessly manage direct sales and pickups of pallets to PalletTrader and primary buyers through a single, streamlined system. This functionality allows shippers under management to request pallet pickups directly within the PalletTrader+ platform, facilitating sales to PalletTrader’s supplier network who can collect and repurpose these pallets.
- The pallet sell-off program provides full transparency and visibility across the entire pallet procurement network. PalletTrader customers now have access to detailed metrics on pallet pickups, cost savings and sustainability initiatives, all through an updated user interface. The inclusion of a landfill avoidance calculator allows users to see real-time data on their pallet cost and environmental impact before distributing pallets.
“We are creating a circular pallet economy where assets are repaired, reused, or, if necessary, ground into mulch, ensuring minimal waste,” adds Dzugan. “Customers pay for pallets supplied by PalletTrader and, in return, receive monetary value back when those pallets are sold off, significantly reducing the total cost of ownership. This program is designed to help those with large volumes of pallets the most, but anybody with pallets that they’re struggling to unload can benefit,” concluded Dzugan.
