Product Information
Keep everything contained
Our reconditioned wooden pallet collars are a simple, cost-effective way to turn a standard 1200mm x 1000mm pallet into a secure, open-topped storage box. Whether they’re for use on the move or in the warehouse, you can trust your goods will be contained.
Build to the size you need
As pallet collars are modular, you can start with a single collar for shallow loads, then stack additional collars to create a deeper box. Adjust capacity in seconds as your stock levels change, with no tools or fixings.
Save valuable space
Fold the pallet collars away when not in use, so empty units take up a fraction of the space of a rigid crate. That frees up floor and racking space and makes return journeys more efficient.
Lower cost, lower impact
Every recon collar we sell has been inspected and returned to service. Choosing reconditioned wooden pallet collars means paying less than you would for brand new, without compromising on performance.

FAQs
Pallet collars are wooden frames that sit on top of a pallet to turn it into a sturdy, open-topped box. They help keep loose, fragile or irregularly shaped goods secure during storage and transport, and they make stacking safer and neater. Businesses across manufacturing, agriculture, retail and logistics use them to create flexible, reusable packaging without buying purpose-built crates.
This reconditioned pallet collar is designed to fit a standard 1200mm x 1000mm UK pallet once assembled. If you work with Euro pallets (1200mm x 800mm) or half-Euro pallets (800mm x 600mm), we also stock collars in those sizes. Just browse our Collars & Pallet Boards range or contact us for advice on the right fit.
Yes. One of the biggest advantages of wooden pallet collars is that several can be stacked on top of each other to build a box to the height you need. Add collars as your load grows, or remove them as it shrinks. When not in use, each collar folds flat, taking up very little space.
Yes. We can supply a heat treated version of this pallet collar, which is important when shipping goods internationally under ISPM 15 regulations.

Pallet collars are shipped folded flat to make them easier and more efficient to transport. A standard shipment space is around 1.2 metres, however a folded pallet collar is over 2 meters long, essentially requiring two shipping spaces. This is why delivery costs can be higher than you might expect compared with some other pallet products.
It really depends on what you’re storing, how heavy it is and how the pallet will be handled. As a general guide, keep heavier goods low, make sure each pallet collar is seated properly on the one below, and avoid building so high that the load becomes top-heavy for forklift or pallet truck handling.
Yes, but untreated timber will weather over time if left exposed to rain. For long-term outdoor use, store collars under cover when not in use or apply a wood treatment. Folded collars stack neatly against a wall or on a pallet, so it’s easy to keep spares out of the weather.
Absolutely. Pallet collars have become a popular, affordable way to build raised beds, planters and compost bins. Just open one out, place it on level ground and fill with soil, adding more collars if you want a deeper bed. Many gardeners line the inside with plastic to extend the life of the wood. See our guide to using pallet collars as raised beds for tips.
