Send a Pallet to Ireland with ParcelBroker

Ireland and the UK have a very strong trading relationship. Total UK exports to Ireland amounted to £52.3 billion in the first quarter of 2025, making Ireland the UK’s 6th largest trading partner.

Relations between the two countries have long been underscored by their close geographical proximity: they are separated by the Irish Sea, which makes overseas pallet delivery to Ireland extremely common (and quick!)

The sheer number of UK citizens living in Ireland has also contributed to extensive parcel delivery.

There were 83,347 UK citizens living in the Republic of Ireland as of the 2022 census, and over half a million Irish citizens living in the UK! Equally, the scale of trade has been positively impacted by Ireland’s growing e-commerce market. Valued at €4 billion and €7 billion in recent years, Irish consumers are highly engaged in cross‑border shopping: 84% of people have purchased from international retailers, which is nearly twice the European average!

When you’re considering pallet shipping to Ireland, shippers should give each of these factors consideration.

How to prepare the pallet for shipping to Ireland

When you choose to send a pallet to Ireland, our simple, secure process will make sure your goods arrive on time. Here are the key points to remember:

Make sure your items do not overhang the pallet base—any overhang may incur additional pallet‑space charges and is excluded from transit damage cover.

Pallet shipping to Ireland requires that the goods are securely fastened to the pallet using shrink wrap, ratchet straps, rope or banding.

Packaged goods must be stable and not top‑heavy: the pallet may be handled up to eight times during transit, so care is essential.

Pallets may be stacked to maximise vehicle space. If your pallet isn’t suitable for stacking, clearly indicate this on the outside to avoid mishandling.

Protect each item adequately (wrap goods in bubble wrap, use cardboard, polystyrene or similar packaging) to prevent damage en route.
