Plastic Drums
Guides, specs, and tips for buying, selling, and using plastic drums across industries.
Quick answer: Plastic pallets are better when you need hygiene, dimensional consistency, and automation readiness—or to avoid ISPM-15 for export. Wood pallets are better for lowest upfront cost, easy field repair, and broad availability. The best choice depends on your loads, environment, and total cost per turn.
Short answer: it depends on condition (new vs. used), style (nestable/stackable/rackable), dimensions, design, and freight. Below are realistic B2B ranges and the levers that move price up or down so you can budget and estimate resale value.
Plastic pallets are widely used for shipping, storage, and product handling. Their hygiene, strength, and compatibility with automation make them a practical alternative to wood. But who actually buys plastic pallets? The answer depends on the industry and the application.
