Q. Are wooden crates sustainable?

Answer

The fact that wooden crates can be recycled on their whole makes them an environmentally friendly alternative to other packing options. When they are no longer fit for the purpose of storing or transporting goods wooden crates have a wide variety of other uses that they may be put to. For instance they may be used in the production of many types of furniture. On the other side they could be useful in further construction or landscaping initiatives. Crates made of wood serve a useful role even when they are nearing the end of their useful lifespans. They are versatile and may be used as fuel compost or even as animal bedding after being treated.
