Plastic Pallets

Might be able to get about 20 of these for free.

Anybody ever sell to a pallet recycler? appear to be in great condition. bright blue in color.

I saw that they are going for ~$90 each new... might try to go get (45 min drive, 55 mph) tomorrow if they are worthwhile...

I figure they should bring at least $10 a pop to a recycler?

Nice score. Your might be able to get more from construction companies, farmers, ranchers, because they will not rot. Wooden pallets are a pain because they rot. If you had a hundred or more to make the trip worthwhile, I would want them. I bet I could sell 100 in a couple of days around here.

They would be worth more than $10 to me for my own use. I'd try to see if you can get a good price for them all.

I would be throwing those on Clist for $20 each. People that use pallets often love the plastic ones.

Don't you have to be a little careful with plastic pallets? I thought they usually belonged to someone and needed to be returned, kinda like beer kegs or oxyacetylene cylinders...'cause they are pretty expensive and are reusable many times. But I would expect the name and address to be on the pallet somewhere, if that was the case.

I had not thought of that. I know that is true with milk crates as well, but I see them all over.

there may be a reward for returning them. Usually there is a deposit payed when things are shipped on them.
