Boiler Fuel
Cost-effective
Heating
Using recycled pallets as boiler fuel is a cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution for heating and power generation. Pallets are typically made of wood, which is a renewable resource that can be easily recycled and used as a fuel source. When compared to other types of fuel, such as coal or oil, using pallets as boiler fuel is a sustainable alternative that reduces the carbon footprint of energy generation.
Boiler Fuel Made from Recycled Pallets
Blue Ridge Pallet produces boiler fuel from recycled wood pallets and other discarded wood products at our facility in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley. Our wood boiler fuel is a cost-effective, renewable heating source for commercial, agricultural, and residential customers throughout Virginia, West Virginia, and Maryland.
What Is Pallet Boiler Fuel?
Pallet boiler fuel is wood biomass made by grinding used and unrepairable pallets into a consistent fuel that can be burned in wood-fired and biomass boilers to produce heat and power. Because pallets are built from wood, a renewable resource, recycling them into fuel gives the material one more useful life instead of sending it to a landfill.
At Blue Ridge Pallet, every pallet we collect is first evaluated for repair and resale. Pallets that can’t be returned to service, along with other scrap wood, are processed into boiler fuel and animal bedding. Nothing goes to waste.
Benefits of Wood Boiler Fuel
- Lower heating costs. Wood boiler fuel made from recycled pallets is often a more affordable option than fossil fuels, helping businesses and property owners control heating and energy expenses.
- A sustainable alternative to coal and oil. Compared to coal or oil, boiler fuel from recycled wood is a renewable energy source that helps reduce the carbon footprint of heat and power generation.
- Landfill diversion. Our pallet recycling programs keep millions of pallets out of landfills each year. Choosing recycled boiler fuel supports that effort directly.
- Local and reliable supply. Because we produce boiler fuel from pallets we collect across the region, our supply stays close to home, supporting local businesses and reducing long-haul transportation.
