It's Called Reusable Transport Packaging

If you discard one-time or limited-use pallets and boxes after every trip, your company may be wasting money. Add that money back to your company's bottom line by making the switch to reusable containers (totes, boxes and bins), reusable pallets and pallet pooling systems (pallet rental).

Reusable transport packaging is used for multiple trips in closed loop and managed open loop shipping systems where reverse logistics or the return of empty transport packaging components can be repeated over and over again.

Reasons cited by companies that determined that reusable transport packaging was the right choice for them include lower shipping and labor costs, better product protection, less product damage, more productive flow of goods through distribution channels, better ergonomics, improved worker safety and longer useful life of packaging.
