Does anyone know of any where along the A14 from the M1/M6 split down to Huntingdon that you can sell pallets ?
TRy the Cafe at Junction 1 Welford maybe or Alconbury Truckstop.
Welford dont.
A5 north form J18 of the M1, about halfway betwwen Crick and the Old BP truck stop on the left … if it’s still there
I’m pretty sure that theres a pallet place in Kettering signed at the top of the W/Bound sliproad at the A43 Corby junction (near the Brewers Fare pub). I’ve never used it but can remember seeing the sign.
I’m accepting no responsibility for my memory though.

thanks guys. Will try those when I next bring some ‘spare’ pallets back…
Of course,being the concentious driver that you are,you’ll take all pallets back to the yard.
Ken.
I would take them all back, but they only get filed away in a heap in the corner to be thrown away at a later date, so it seems to make more sense to donate them to a good cause.
Once had a big falling out with Frigoscandia lot, I turned up to off hire a trailer only to find it half full of those nice blue pallets that fetch good money, no decision to make I went straight into the transport office & told them, then went over the yard & met the forkie to get them offloaded.
Forkie goes & gets a pump trolley & says there you are mate. Honest I might be but mug I am not, if they thought I would unload them for free they got it wrong, I wanted a pound a pallet to unload them they wouldn’t pay it, so I said zb you either get off or I’m selling them, they threatened to not let me out so I jumped in the cab & offed them a choice loose a gate & the pallets or unload them in 5 minutes.
They unloaded them, but lost some more the next time I found they had been using the offhire trailer for storage.
Some companies get what they deserve, no help .
