Pallets for air freight and logistics businesses around Southampton Airport
The commercial estates around Southampton Airport, Wide Lane and Eastleigh hold freight agents, couriers, aviation-adjacent engineering and time-critical logistics businesses — and our yard on Stoneham Lane is minutes away.
How the pallet side of this work behaves
Air-related freight work rewards a different pallet habit from sea freight. Weight is expensive, consignments are smaller and more frequent, and goods are often consolidated and reconfigured more than once, so pallets need to be consistent, sound and no heavier than the job requires. A cracked board or a random oversized pallet costs more here than the pallet itself is worth.
We supply graded used pallets, new pallets and plastic pallets to these businesses, in single deliveries or on a regular pattern, and take back the empties that consolidation work leaves behind. Proximity is the real advantage: short-notice requests into this area are far easier for us than most.
Where a consignment needs treated timber for its destination, that is a specification question rather than a stock item. Tell us what has been asked for and we will be clear about what we can supply.
What these sites ask for
Consistent, sound pallets
Graded stock so consolidation and re-handling do not fail on a broken board.
Sensible weight
Lighter serviceable grades or plastic pallets where weight affects the cost of moving goods.
Small, frequent deliveries
Modest quantities on a regular pattern rather than a full load once a quarter.
Quick empty turnaround
Empties taken away often, because these units are rarely long on storage space.
We supply businesses located and trading in this area. We hold no contract, approved supplier status or formal relationship with Southampton Airport, any airline or any handling agent.
