Pallet Recycling
Smith Creek provides pallet recycling and pallet disposal services for manufacturers, warehouses, and distributors across Southern Indiana and the Louisville, KY metro, keeping usable wood materials out of landfills and in productive use.
Pallets We Recycle
We accept used wooden pallets in any condition — intact, broken, or in bulk loads — from businesses that need a responsible, reliable disposal solution.
Pallet Materials Accepted
Our pallet recycling services accept a variety of clean wood pallet materials, including:
- Standard wooden shipping pallets
- Broken or damaged pallets
- Pallet boards and pallet scrap
- Bulk pallet loads from warehouses or manufacturers
Materials must be free of contaminants such as paint, plastic, or other non-organic materials so they can be safely processed through our recycling operations.
From Pallets to Recycled Wood Products
From Wood Waste to
Useful Products
Recycled pallets are processed at Smith Creek through grinding and material separation so the wood can be reused in new products rather than sent to landfills.
Mulch Production
Many recycled pallets are processed into mulch used for landscaping, erosion control, and soil protection across residential and commercial projects.
Compost and Soil Products
Wood fibers recovered from pallets can be used as a carbon source in composting and soil blend production, supporting healthy soil structure and plant growth.
Renewable Wood Fuel
Some pallet wood is further processed into renewable wood fuel materials used in heating and energy applications.
