Sustainable Pallet Recycling for California Facilities
CalPallet designs recycling programs that turn broken pallets into reusable inventory, reclaimed lumber, or biomass fuel. We help enterprise partners eliminate waste, document environmental impact, and stay ahead of compliance requirements.
- Facility walk-throughs and diversion planning for manufacturing, grocery, and logistics networks
- Repair, reuse, and biomass options with zero landfill disposal
- ESG-ready reporting with tonnage, carbon savings, and certification records
Recycling streams
Grade A/B Refurbishment
Reusable pallets repaired to customer specifications with third-party audited processes and serialized labeling if required.
- Hand and automated repair lines
- Moisture and fastener checks
- Ideal for closed-loop reuse
Grade C Material Recovery
Damaged pallets dismantled for component reuse. Salvaged deck boards and stringers extend life in our rebuild program.
- Lumber reclaimed and cataloged
- Nails removed and recycled
- Residual wood chipped for biomass
End-of-Life Mulch & Biomass
Non-repairable pallets converted into landscape mulch, animal bedding, or biomass fuel with zero landfill disposal.
- Sorted by species for consistent output
- Certified weights and moisture data
- Partners across California and Nevada
Plastic & Composite Pallets
Segregated plastic pallet recycling with grinding and remanufacturing partnerships for circular reuse.
- HDPE and PP streams accepted
- Cleaning and inspection included
- Return-to-service with traceability
ESG reporting and compliance support
We align with corporate sustainability frameworks while keeping records simple for facility managers. Reports include weights, moisture, material destinations, and greenhouse gas savings.
Zero Landfill Commitment
All pallets are diverted through repair, parts harvesting, or biomass programs aligned with CalRecycle guidelines.
Certified Reporting
Quarterly diversion summaries with tonnage, CO2 avoidance, and custom ESG metrics for stakeholders.
Food & Pharma Compliance
Segregated food-grade processing lines, pest control documentation, and FSMA-aligned sanitation protocols.
On-Site Programs
Drop trailers, live load pickups, and pallet cages to keep docks organized while material is collected for recycling.
Documentation you receive
Ideal for ESG teams, operations leaders, and compliance officers reporting to boards or municipalities.
- Moisture, grade, and repair certifications
- CalRecycle-ready diversion and landfill avoidance reports
- Chain-of-custody tracking for export-grade pallets
- ESG data packages with CO2 equivalency
Regional recovery network
Multiple California facilities plus cross-border partnerships keep transportation costs down and recycling rates high.
Los Angeles and Inland Empire facilities support port operations, importers, and retail distribution centers with 24/7 access.
Fresno operation handles agricultural culls, food processing waste streams, and biomass conversion projects.
Stockton and Richmond yards manage tech campus returns, warehouse consolidation, and zero-waste partnerships.
