Sustainable Wood Recycling Built Into How We Operate

BTL's approach to sustainable wood recycling means nothing runs on the side — it's the business itself. Since 2001, we've diverted over 1 billion pounds of wood from landfills by repairing, reusing, or turning every load into mulch, and we can document it for you.

How We Approach Sustainability

Sustainability isn't a claim we make — it's the mechanism our business runs on. Pallets that can be repaired go back into circulation. Wood that can't be reused as a pallet gets ground into mulch. Almost nothing we take in ends up in a landfill.

This matters for two reasons. First, it keeps your dock and facility clear without adding another disposal vendor to manage. Second, as more manufacturers face pressure to document their environmental impact, we can give you real numbers to work with — not vague claims.

What does "built-in sustainability" mean
for a wood waste partner?

It means sustainable wood recycling isn't a separate initiative — it's the core business model. Material that comes in as waste goes out as a reused pallet or mulch, and the volume of that activity can be tracked and reported.
