LVT by the Pallet

Cheap LVT by the pallet at the trade per-square-metre rate. The By the Pallet section supplies luxury vinyl flooring at wholesale-tier pricing to landlords, developers, fitters, builders and maintenance contractors placing whole-property fit-outs and multi-room orders. Every product on this page shows the per-pallet price and the per-square-metre price openly with no quote form, no log-in to see prices and no trade-account verification needed.

What is LVT by the Pallet?

LVT by the Pallet is a buying format, not a brand. Every product in this section is luxury vinyl flooring supplied at the pallet level with one pallet equal to one product code – no mixed-decor pallets, no part-pallets. The format suits any project where the buyer knows the design, knows roughly how many square metres they need and would rather take a single drop than reorder boxes one at a time.

The product inside the boxes is the same luxury vinyl tile or luxury vinyl plank you would buy by the box – same wear layer, same surface treatment, same warranty, same fitting characteristics. The advantages of buying by the pallet are commercial and logistical: a lower per-square-metre cost than the retail box rate, batch consistency across the whole pallet (every box from the same production run, so colour matches exactly) and a single kerbside or forklift delivery that drops your full requirement in one go.

The pallet format is the standard for trade, contract and bulk-residential LVT supply across the UK. It is the way luxury vinyl flooring is shipped through the wholesale tier of the market and is now offered openly through Grosvenor Flooring at trade-rate per-pallet pricing – without the standing trade account, the credit application or the minimum quarterly order that the traditional wholesale route requires.

Why Pallet Pricing Beats Buying LVT by the Box

The single biggest reason buyers choose LVT by the pallet is the price. Cheap LVT by the box – the kind sold at clearance, in seasonal flooring sales or as a discount line – is often heavily marked up to begin with so the discount looks larger than it is. Pallet pricing skips that game entirely. The per-square-metre rate at the pallet level is the standing trade rate and it is the rate every product on this page is sold at, every day, without a clearance window or a sale period.

The other reason buyers choose pallet supply is consistency. Multi-box orders for the same LVT design sometimes draw from two or three production batches and small colour and emboss variations show up across the finished floor. A pallet is drawn from a single production run, so every box on the pallet matches and the finished floor looks like one continuous installation rather than three slightly different shades of grey oak laid next to each other.

Logistics is the third advantage. A pallet arrives as one consignment at one delivery slot rather than as multiple smaller parcels dripping in over a week. For a landlord turning around a property between tenancies on a fixed schedule or a developer holding a fitter on day rate while waiting for boxes, the single-drop economy is real.

None of this requires a trade account, a wholesale membership card or a quote-form gate. The pallet section is the trade-rate route, opened up to anyone with a project big enough to take a full pallet.

Who Buys LVT by the Pallet?

Five buyer types account for almost all pallet LVT demand in the UK and the section is built for them.

Landlords with two or more rental properties refurbishing on rolling cycles, who need durable waterproof flooring that survives back-to-back tenancies. A pallet of LVT typically covers one full property or two flats which fits the standard turnaround cadence cleanly. See our guide to flooring for rental properties for the format and wear-layer decisions specific to this audience.

Property developers and builders running new-build, conversion or refurbishment projects who want to standardise on one or two LVT specifications across a development. Pallet supply matches the procurement model these projects already use and removes the need to coordinate multiple smaller orders. Our trade flooring for developers page covers the standing-account side of this work.

Independent fitters and small flooring contractors buying for specific jobs, particularly when the client has signed off the design and the fitter is responsible for source. Pallet pricing protects the fitter’s margin and supplying to order means the fitter does not carry stock between jobs.

Facilities and maintenance contractors managing housing-association or social-housing portfolios where a single LVT specification is rolled out across hundreds of properties. Pallet supply is the only practical way to procure at that scale and our open per-pallet pricing simplifies the budget approval process.

Self-build and large-home buyers fitting a single property out completely. A pallet is the right scale for a four or five-bedroom home, especially in open-plan layouts where consistent batch matching across rooms matters.

The section is open to anyone, not gated behind trade-account verification. We do operate Grosvenor+, our trade membership for landlords, developers and trades without wholesale accounts and members receive a discount applied automatically at checkout – but membership is optional and not required to buy.

Glue-Down LVT by the Pallet

Glue-down LVT is the mid-residential standard for whole-property installation and the most popular pallet format for landlords and developers. The plank is fixed to a prepared subfloor with the appropriate LVT adhesive, giving the cleanest finished floor at the lowest installed cost per square metre. The format is familiar to every flooring fitter in the UK, dries fast and works in every room except wet rooms with floor drains.

Glue-down plank LVT in particular suits flats, terraces and semi-detached refurbs where the subfloor is sound (typically screed, plywood or smoothed-out concrete) and the buyer wants a permanent-fix finish. The boxes typically carry between 2.8 and 3.0 square metres each and a glue-down plank pallet typically covers between 117 and 146 square metres – enough for a full property in one drop.

For the LVT-format-decision side of this, see our glue-down vs click LVT guide and our broader glue-down LVT category for non-pallet boxes.

Click LVT by the Pallet

Click LVT (sometimes called click vinyl flooring or rigid-core LVT) floats over the subfloor on a mechanical click joint with no adhesive needed. The rigid-core construction bridges minor subfloor imperfections that would need addressing for a glue-down install, which suits retrofit and refurbishment work where the existing subfloor is sound but not pristine and where the fitter wants to be in and out of each room quickly.

Click pallets typically cover between 60 and 90 square metres because the rigid-core boards are thicker than glue-down planks and fewer boxes fit on a pallet. That sounds like a disadvantage but the per-pallet cost is lower in proportion, so the per-square-metre rate is in the same range as glue-down and the smaller pallet suits buyers with smaller projects – a single one-bedroom flat or a kitchen-living open-plan refurbishment.

Click is also the practical choice where adhesive installation is not viable – rental properties where the buyer wants the floor liftable at end of tenancy, or upstairs installations over wooden floorboards where glue-down would need a full plywood overlay first. See our click LVT category for non-pallet boxes.

Herringbone and Parquet LVT by the Pallet

Herringbone LVT (and the parquet pattern more generally) has gone from period-property feature to one of the most-specified LVT designs in new-build and refurbishment work over the last few years. The challenge has been cost: the smaller plank size means more cutting waste at edges and the laying pattern takes longer for the fitter, so retail box pricing puts herringbone LVT well above straight-plank for the same wear layer.

Pallet pricing rebalances the equation. A pallet of herringbone LVT carries enough product for a full property at a per-square-metre rate that competes directly with retail straight-plank, which is what makes herringbone realistic for landlords and developers wanting a feature finish across whole properties rather than restricting it to a single statement room.

We supply herringbone and parquet LVT by the pallet in both glue-down and click formats. Glue-down parquet gives the tightest finish with no visible joint line and is the format specified for premium residential and contract work. Click parquet uses a mechanical click joint on a rigid core which makes the pattern realistic for fitters without specialist parquet experience and suits rental and refurbishment work where speed matters.

For the pattern itself see our herringbone flooring guide and for cheap herringbone options across both LVT and engineered wood our cheap herringbone flooring guide.

How Much LVT is on a Pallet

The square metres per pallet figure is the most important number on each product page. It tells you how much LVT is on the pallet and therefore whether one pallet covers your project or you need to order more. The figure varies by format and pack size but most pallet LVT we stock falls in a predictable range.

A glue-down plank pallet typically covers between 117 and 146 square metres, depending on box count (most pallets carry between 40 and 50 boxes, each of which covers roughly 2.9 square metres). A glue-down parquet pallet generally falls in a similar range. A click plank pallet typically covers between 60 and 90 square metres because the rigid-core construction is thicker and the boxes weigh more, so fewer fit on a pallet.

For practical scale: 117 square metres covers a typical three-bedroom semi-detached house with open-plan ground floor allowing for offcuts and waste; 146 square metres covers a four-bedroom detached or two one-bedroom flats; 60 square metres covers a single one-bedroom flat or a large ground floor; 90 square metres covers a typical two-bedroom flat or a large open-plan kitchen-living space.

Add a wastage allowance of around 8 to 10 per cent for straight-lay plank installations and 10 to 15 per cent for parquet and herringbone, because pattern installations cut more offcuts at edges and around fixtures. If your project needs more than one pallet, order all pallets together so the supplier draws from a single production batch and colour-matching across pallets is clean.

What to Look For in a Pallet of LVT

Pallet LVT is not commodity flooring and the specifications matter as much at the pallet level as they do at the retail box level. The four numbers and credentials that drive durability and warranty are wear layer, thickness, surface treatment and slip rating.

Wear layer is the transparent topcoat above the printed design layer. It is the single most important durability number. 0.30mm is the residential entry standard suitable for low-traffic bedrooms and bathrooms. 0.55mm is the mid-residential standard suitable for living rooms, kitchens, hallways and full-house specification – the wear layer we focus the pallet section on. 0.70mm and above is commercial-grade and tends to be over-specified for residential pallet buyers.

Thickness is the overall depth of the plank. Glue-down LVT typically runs 2.0mm to 2.5mm. Click LVT typically runs 4.5mm to 6.5mm because of the rigid core. Thicker is not better per se – thicker glue-down adds cost without performance gain for the same wear layer, while thicker click handles uneven subfloors more forgivingly.

Surface treatment is the factory-applied PUR (polyurethane) coating that seals the wear layer against scratches, scuffs and household chemicals. Every quality LVT we stock carries a PUR or PU coating, often branded under the manufacturer’s own name. Without it the surface stains and dulls faster than the wear-layer thickness suggests.

Slip rating is measured to DIN 51130. R10 is the residential standard suitable for kitchens and bathrooms. R11 is the commercial wet-zone rating and is rarely needed in residential pallet work. Every pallet LVT product we stock is R10-rated as a minimum.

Beyond those four, look for an EIR (Embossed In Register) surface, which means the texture aligns with the printed wood grain to give a tactile, authentic finish; micro-bevel edges on all four sides, which make individual planks read correctly when laid; and the European certifications EN 14041, CE and UKCA, which signal that the product has been independently tested to UK and EU standards.

How Pallet Supply Works

We do not hold stock of pallet LVT – we bring each pallet in as it sells, which keeps prices keen and lets us extend the range without warehousing commitments. The full range is open to anyone with a Grosvenor+ member discount applied automatically at checkout for logged-in members.

When you place an order we draw the pallet from our supplier network and deliver it direct to the address you specify, typically within 3 to 5 working days from order to delivery with the specific lead time shown on each product page.

This matters for three reasons. First, it keeps prices keen because we are not pricing in warehousing or holding costs that would otherwise sit on top of every pallet. Second, it lets us extend the section without committing to stock, so as we add more products to the range over time you continue to benefit from open per-pallet pricing rather than from a narrow stocked selection. Third, it means there is no minimum commitment from you – we do not require deposits, standing orders or trade-account paperwork to place a pallet order.

The trade-off is lead time. If you need a pallet on site tomorrow this is not the supply route – you are better placed buying from a retailer holding pallets in stock at higher per-square-metre cost. If you can plan a few days ahead, supply to order gives you keener pricing and a wider range than stock-held supply.

If you are a developer or contractor with predictable recurring pallet requirements, we can pre-book pallets against a forward schedule so the lead time effectively disappears for your standing orders. Contact us through the enquiry form on any product page to set that up.

Delivery and Pallet Logistics

All Grosvenor Flooring orders ship on pallets but a full-pallet order from this section is significantly larger than a single-box delivery – a standard UK pallet (1200mm x 1000mm) carrying between approximately 600kg and 1,000kg depending on format and coverage, delivered by a dedicated pallet network. The site is built to make the access requirements clear before you order.

Kerbside delivery is the default. The driver places the pallet on the kerb or driveway directly outside the delivery address using a tail-lift and pallet truck. The pallet truck needs a hard flat surface to roll on – gravel, lawn and steep drives are not suitable. Once the pallet is at the kerb, moving it inside is your responsibility, so factor in either a willing fitter on site or pre-arranged hire of a pallet truck.

Forklift offload is available where the receiving site has its own forklift or telehandler – a building site, depot, contractor yard or warehouse address. Forklift offload makes whole-pallet placement straightforward and removes the kerbside handling problem.

Ground-floor access only. Pallets cannot be carried upstairs by the driver. If your installation is above the ground floor the pallet drops on the ground floor and you arrange the move up. For flats, multi-storey rental properties and second-floor installations, plan the on-site handling before the pallet arrives.

We send confirmation of the delivery date and time window once the pallet is dispatched and the network will telephone the contact number on the order in advance of the delivery to confirm access. If site conditions change after order, contact us as soon as possible so we can reschedule rather than risk a failed delivery.

Sale Pricing on LVT by the Pallet

Pricing on this section follows two principles: it is transparent and it is published. Every product page shows the per-pallet headline price and the per-square-metre price derived from it with the square metres per pallet clearly labelled next to both. There is no quote process, no log-in to see prices and no separately negotiated trade tier on the public site.

This is what cheap LVT looks like when the discount is real rather than dressed up. The standing per-square-metre rate at the pallet level is well below the per-box retail rate and is the rate every product on this page is sold at every day, without a sale window or a clearance period. If you want to compare the pallet rate to genuine retail clearance and sale prices across the wider LVT market see our flooring sale UK guide and the LVT flooring sale walk-through.

The comparison below sets pallet supply against ordering the same LVT by the box.

Factor	LVT by the Pallet	LVT by the Box
Cost per square metre	Lower – bulk trade rate	Higher – retail box rate
Minimum order	One pallet (60 to 146 sqm depending on format)	Single box (2 to 3 sqm typically)
Lead time	3 to 5 working days (supplied to order)	Often shipped from stock, 2 to 5 working days
Batch consistency	Single batch across whole pallet	Multiple batches possible on multi-box orders
Best suited to	Whole-property fit-outs, multi-room jobs, trade and rolling refurb	Single room, top-up, sample-and-confirm orders
Delivery and site access	Full UK pallet (600 to 1,000kg), hard surface required for pallet truck, ground-floor only	Smaller pallet, lighter access requirements but still kerbside drop

Frequently Asked Questions

What is LVT by the pallet?

LVT by the pallet is luxury vinyl flooring sold at the per-pallet trade rate rather than the per-box retail rate. One pallet equals one product code with a fixed square-metre coverage shown on each product page. The product inside is the same luxury vinyl tile or luxury vinyl plank you would buy by the box - same wear layer, same surface treatment, same fitting characteristics. The pricing is lower because pallet supply skips the per-box retail markup.

How much does a pallet of LVT cost?

Pallet prices vary by format, wear layer and design. The per-pallet headline price and the per-square-metre derivation are published openly on every product page with no quote process or log-in needed. Grosvenor+ members receive an automatic discount applied at checkout.

Is LVT cheaper by the pallet than by the box?

Yes. The per-square-metre rate at the pallet level is the standing trade rate and is well below the per-box retail rate. The discount is real and standing rather than a sale or clearance window. The trade-off is the minimum order size: you commit to a full pallet (60 to 146 square metres depending on format) rather than a single box.

How many square metres are on a pallet of LVT?

Between 60 and 146 square metres, depending on format. Glue-down plank and parquet pallets typically cover 117 to 146 square metres. Click plank and parquet pallets typically cover 60 to 90 square metres because the rigid-core construction is thicker and fewer boxes fit per pallet. The exact square metres per pallet are shown on each product page next to the price.

What is the cheapest way to buy LVT for a rental property?

Pallet supply is typically the cheapest route for a whole-property reflooring because the per-square-metre rate is at trade level and one pallet typically covers a full one or two-bedroom rental in a single drop. For single-room top-ups the box rate is the right route because pallet supply does not scale down below a full pallet.

Can I buy a pallet of LVT without a trade account?

Yes. The pallet section is open to anyone. There is no trade-account verification, no minimum purchase history and no enquiry-form gate. Grosvenor+ membership is optional and offers automatic member pricing for landlords, developers and trades, but is not required to place a pallet order.

How long does delivery take?

Typically 3 to 5 working days from order to delivery. The specific lead time for each product is shown on the listing. We can pre-book pallets against a forward schedule for developers and contractors with recurring requirements, which effectively removes the lead time for standing orders.

What delivery options are available for pallet LVT?

Kerbside delivery is the default - the driver places the pallet at the kerb or on the driveway directly outside the delivery address using a tail-lift and pallet truck. Forklift offload is available where the receiving site has its own forklift. Pallets cannot be carried upstairs by the driver so first-floor installations need to plan on-site handling separately.

What is the difference between LVT by the pallet and LVT by the box?

The product is the same - the same wear layer, the same surface treatment, the same fitting characteristics. Pallet supply gives a lower per-square-metre cost, single-batch consistency across the whole pallet and a single drop, in exchange for a larger minimum order and a slightly longer lead time. Pallet is the right format for whole-property fit-outs and multi-room jobs; box buying is the right format for single rooms or top-ups.

Can I buy a mixed pallet with multiple designs?

No. One pallet is one product code. Mixed-decor pallets are not available because each pallet is drawn to order from a single production batch. If your project needs more than one design, order each design as a separate pallet.

Do you ship LVT pallets across the UK?

Yes. The pallet section ships UK-wide through a national pallet network. Mainland UK addresses are covered by standard lead times. Highlands, islands and offshore postcodes may carry extended lead times - contact us for confirmation if you are ordering to those areas.

What if I need more than one pallet for my project?

Order all pallets together so the supplier draws from a single production batch and colour-matching across pallets stays clean. Multi-pallet orders ship together as a single consignment, which keeps delivery coordination simple and protects batch consistency across the installation.

Can I see and feel a sample before ordering a pallet?

Yes. Free samples are available for every pallet LVT product, requested through the sample link on each product page. We recommend ordering a sample before committing to a pallet, particularly for whole-property specification where the design choice needs to be right first time.

Where can I buy LVT by the pallet in the UK?

Grosvenor Flooring supplies LVT by the pallet UK-wide through a national pallet network with public per-pallet and per-square-metre pricing on every product page. The section is open to anyone, with no trade-account verification or quote-form gate to access prices and Grosvenor+ members receive an automatic discount applied at checkout.

Do Grosvenor+ members get a discount on pallet orders?

Yes. The Grosvenor+ member discount is applied automatically at checkout when a logged-in member places a pallet order. The discount is on top of the publicly listed per-pallet price. Membership is free to apply for.
