LONDON, UK, 15 October 2026 - Euro Pallet Network, the online pallet delivery service for road freight from Europe to the UK, has published a set of practical guides to help UK businesses prepare single-pallet consignments from European suppliers. The guides, available free on the company's website, cover pallet sizes and height bands, how to prepare a pallet for collection, and the customs documents needed for goods moving from the EU to Great Britain.

Many small and medium-sized UK businesses buy stock, spare parts and equipment from suppliers in France, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and Poland. Their orders are often too large to send loose but far smaller than a full lorry. Since Brexit, each consignment also needs export and import declarations, a commercial invoice, commodity codes and the importer's GB EORI number. The guides set out these requirements in plain language.

Topics covered include:

- The difference between Euro pallets (120 x 80 cm) and UK pallets (120 x 100 cm), and how height bands (Quarter up to 80 cm, Half up to 110 cm, Full up to 220 cm) affect price
- How to stack, wrap and label a pallet so it travels safely by road
- A customs checklist: GB EORI number, commercial invoice, commodity codes, and budgeting for import duty and VAT
- Tail-lift and forklift access at collection and delivery addresses, including limits for oversized loads

"Our customers tell us the road journey itself is rarely the hard part. It is knowing what to check before the pallet leaves the supplier's premises," said a spokesperson for Euro Pallet Network. "These guides bring together the questions we answer every day, so businesses can get pallets moving from Europe to the UK without delays or surprise costs."

Euro Pallet Network handles collection, road transport, export and import customs clearance and doorstep delivery for single pallets and custom crates. Customers get an instant price online, choose collection and delivery dates, and track each stage from a dashboard. Documents uploaded once are saved for future bookings.
