Pallets piling up at your dock, shop or driveway?

Pallets pile up fast. A few deliveries later, the broken ones are stacked against the building, blocking a door, collecting water and giving mice a place to live. Your regular dumpster fills up in one go, and your trash hauler may not take them at all.

Zach's Pack Hauling loads stacks of pallets, skids and crates and hauls them away from warehouses, loading docks, retail back rooms, job sites and homes around Dayton. You show us the pile. We do the lifting and loading. Pallets keep coming back? We also offer scheduled recurring pickups.

How pallet pickup works

  1. Send a photo

    Text 326-900-8944 a photo of the pile, the address and where the trailer can park.

  2. Firm price

    You're charged for the trailer space the load fills, with the price set before we load.

  3. We load

    We stack and load the pallets, crates and packing waste.

  4. Area cleared

    We pick up broken slats and nails so your dock or driveway is usable again.

Make the pickup quick

  • Set aside any good pallets you're returning or selling.
  • Leave a clear spot for the trailer near the pile.
  • Tell us about any forklift-only stacks or pallets still holding product.
  • Mention dock hours or gate codes when you book.

What sets the price of pallet removal

  • How many pallets and crates
  • Stacked neatly vs. scattered and broken
  • Crate size and weight
  • Access for the trailer
  • Cardboard or other waste in the same load

Pallets are priced by trailer space, starting at our $115 minimum and going up by load size. Neatly stacked pallets fit more per load. You get a firm price first.

Pallet & Crate Removal pricing by load size

We price by how much of the trailer your items fill. These tiers are starting points; weight, stairs, access and special disposal can change the price, and you always get a firm number before we load.

*Prices shown are general starting points for standard household junk. Final pricing may vary based on material weight, labor, stairs, access, and specific disposal costs. You will always receive a firm price before work begins.

Ways to get rid of pallets for less

We'd rather you hire us because it makes sense, not because nobody told you about the free options. Rules below are from official city and county pages. Check the linked page before you set anything out, since programs change.

Pallet companies

The Dayton area has pallet recyclers that buy or collect good, standard-size pallets. If you've got a lot of clean, intact ones, call them first. The broken and odd-size leftovers are what we're for.

City curbside isn't built for this

Dayton's residential bulk program lists wood among the building materials it won't collect, so a pile of pallets usually isn't a curbside job there.

Haul them yourself

Montgomery County's transfer and recycling facility in Moraine takes loads from the public. Truck and trailer loads must be fully tarped.

When hiring us makes sense

Call us when the pile is broken, mixed with other junk, or too big for your vehicle, or when nobody on your team has time to deal with it. If pallets pile up every week or month, set up scheduled pickups so you never have to think about it.

Why not let pallets sit

  • Broken pallets have exposed nails and splinters. Wear gloves if you handle them.
  • Tall stacks can shift and fall.
  • Stacked idle wood pallets are a fire load and a home for rodents.

Where pallets go after pickup

Reusable pallets can go back into use. Broken wood is sometimes ground into mulch. The rest goes to a licensed disposal facility.

Need it gone today?

Call 326-900-8944 by 5 PM and we'll tell you if a same-day pickup slot is open. Same-day is often possible but never guaranteed, and it isn't offered for full house cleanouts.
