Help with wooden pallets

Where can I get some wooden pallets from for cheap

 

Just about everywhere, usually free. Trading estates are a good source.
What do you need them for?

 

Except Travis Perkins, their head office stopped them giving them away

 

Gumtree.com

 

Freecycle. Put up a wanted ad and you get a few

 

As longk suggests, trading estates are always worth a try. Many firms are only too pleased to have someone take them off their hands.

 

When I tried to get "free" pallets, many companies were saying that they have to reuse/recycle them now - and yes, that was from the trading estates.

 

So what did u do about it

 

I just got myself 3 off a neighbour, he's a courier and parcels are delivered on them, he's always got a few hanging around so I asked nicely and after a lovely chat walked away with them ..........oh and mine are for an extension to my bug hotel

 

I have to try find done one who got few

 

I used to get around 100 pallets p.a. from local businesses for free, but it's becoming increasingly difficult to get them as more people get woodburners, including those who work for the places I used to get them from.

 

The trick is not to ask companies whose product goes out on pallets! It is a bun fight on our estate for pallets. One company gives me between two and ten a week! In the winter I can easily burn one a night - they give quick heat (and lots of it) so that is where the demand comes from. A chainsaw makes easy work of them.

 

But a cordless jigsaw helps stack the max. number in the back of an MPV. And I always sweep up afterwards.

 

I just need to find a company when has pallets they do not need
