    the stacked bins need a pallet between them

    Currently looking for a job in or related to scrap/recycling. Relocation is possible for the right offer.

    You know for someone who used to operate a forklift for a living I made a lot of pallet mistakes with this load. Not only did I not stack the pallets like you indicated, the pallets on the bottom aren't conducive to using pallets jacks (though are fine for forklifts). But I don't have a forklift, just a jack! And one of the bottom pallets is too small so it's now on another pallet! When I took them off the truck (all praise the good lord who goes by the name Tommygate!) at the truck depot I wrapped them all over again like I was Dexter cause I was paranoid about what else I did wrong!
