Parcelforce has announced that Palletways will be its new pallet service provider as it seeks to offer more pallet services.
The 3 year agreement means that the pallet service will be integrated into current ordering flows within Parcelforce making it easy for customers to book collections, run management reports, track pallets and print labels
Service options available include a pallet AM service, a next-day and two-day delivery service, Saturday delivery and also sameday collection up to 11am.
Rob Gittins of Palletways says: “This contract reinforces the critical role that pallet networks today play in the logistics mix and their growing use by businesses of all sizes. We will be able to complement Parcelforce’s own logistics offering with multiple pallet formats to support the differing freight profiles in today’s demanding marketplace.”
MD of Parcelforce Worldwide Gary Simpson adds: “There are many customers who want one supplier to provide both a parcel and pallet service, so we have partnered with Palletways who operate a high quality palletised network. We remain committed to providing customers with a parcels and pallets service to every postcode in the UK, and believe that Palletways are best placed to support our growth.”
