Express Pallet Delivery Services
Through our pallet network, we can offer an express next day and 48-hour delivery service throughout the UK and Ireland.
Pallet Track Network
Woodside Distribution joined the Pallet-Track Network in July 2017 as the sole Shareholder Member for Northern Ireland. The Pallet Track Network has over 80 shareholder members and has surpassed our expectations in terms of administrative efficiency, service levels and volume growth. We have benefited hugely from the exposure to the cutting-edge Pallet Track I.T. System. There is total transparency with full track and trace from collection through to delivery. The whole process provides our customers with a complete digital journey of their pallet through the network from the point of collection through to final delivery. Location is all important, the networks 270,000 square foot Central Hub is located in Wolverhampton within easy reach of the M5/M6 Motorway network. Our Midlands and Southern England collections and deliveries are routed through the Wolverhampton hub. This is complimented by the 70,000 square foot Northern Hub in Wigan which allows us to effectively collect and deliver within the North East and North West of England.

Pallet Xpress Network
Formed in 2004, Palletxpress is now widely regarded as the premier Pallet Network operating within the Island of Ireland. Woodside Distribution is a founder member, Shareholder and sits on the board of the network. Membership of the Pallet Xpress network allows efficient management and delivery of our Southern Irish pallet flows from our UK and Northern Irish based depots, with the relationship being reciprocal as we deliver the Networks traffic within Counties Antrim and Londonderry. The Palletxpress hub is conveniently located in Ballycoolin, North Dublin allowing ease of access to both the Motorway network and Dublin Ferry Port. The 26 member strong network provides a reliable next day service from County Donegal in the North to County Kerry in the South. The service is underpinned by a robust, cloud-based IT system that allows all pallets to be tracked and traced at every step of the journey through to final delivery. All Network employees and members are fully trained in the use of the system ensuring a consistently high level of service across the Network. Palletxpress now handles in excess of several thousand pallets per night and to cater for this a new 130,000 sq. ft hub was built at Ballycoolin in June 2019.
