That's great! Soon as you get your trailer, you're setting yourself up for success. Keep us updated as I'm sure there are people giving this pallet money method some serious thought.

@@nonenone4078 its not easy at first u will eather break even or lose (gas ) but where I started was I went in the back of business and took those pallets don't thats stealing but if u want go and ask if u want most and I mean most will say no but don't give up people will give them to u then I started to ask at other places like food distributors they have lots I also look on a app called (Canada) kijiji and looked in the free category for pallets thats how I started also go to pallet companies and ask them what they will take and what they won't they will show u and they will also give u some info on the prices also don't listen to other pallet pickers they will tell u bad stories don't listen to them the reason they do that is because in the pallet business prices go up and down so when the company has to many they will drop the price and some pickers don't like when new pickers come in it takes money from them I hope this helps Ps. If u use a truck like me and don't no how to load them I made a video u can check it out if u want

Thanks for sharing this videos. It opens up new possibilities. I expected quite another video to be honest. I thought you were going to help companies out with taking for free their broken pallets for which they otherwise had to pay. Then take them apart and make small products of them. But what you do is very good, maybe even better. Thumbs up.

Would I get paid a lot less money if I take pallets in for money without fixing any boards of they are cracked?Basically if I take them in "as is " .?
@sheldonmohl74474 жыл бұрын
Depends. Some companies will pay you the going rate and simply replace missing or broken boards and sell them as a number 2 pallet, while others might pay a reduced price upfront and resell them to other pallet companies for example.

@sheldonmohl74474 жыл бұрын
@@hotelphotography Research. I live in a large city and it was real easy for me to visit the many local businesses in my area. I simply drove around and looked for pallets sitting outside and asked for them. Many companies utilize established pallet companies as their solution, so don't get discouraged when they tell you this. Once you get some pallets and have a company willing to pay you for them, you must build your list of businesses to check daily. The reason you want to build your list of businesses to check daily is because some of these businesses will have pallets everyday, while others businesses might have just a couple once or twice a week. I thought about the same thing with freight companies, and here's what I found out. They most likely have a pallet service company already employed, and that service will have a dedicated trailer spotted at the freight company. Once the trailer is loaded, they call the pallet company, and they simply drop an empty trailer and take the loaded trailer away. So one day when I was grocery shopping, I saw a local freight company box truck making a delivery next door. I approached the truck driver who was unloading freight, stacking up the product to be hand trucked in the place of business, and had a stack of pallets sitting beside his truck. I simply asked for the pallets and the driver said no. Not taking no for an answer, I offered him $1.00 for each pallet he had, which was 7. It was a no brainer for him, he just made an easy $7.00 for nothing. Yes! It worked for me because I knew I would get $3.00 each for pallet, which I sold for $21.00. Not too bad right? It cost me $7.00 and I made $14.00 pure profit. We both benefited from this agreement, and I eventually paid him a several hundred dollars over time for his pallets. My research made this possible for me to get creative, and you can do the same.

@sheldonmohl74473 жыл бұрын
Many pallet companies who build only new pallets don't want used pallets at all. You need to find one place that buys and accepts used pallets for cash. They might offer only 1 or 2 dollars, and then turn around and sell them for 5 or 6 dollars, but you get paid. I would suggest visiting them instead of emailing them. Good luck Dino

My problem is I have a bunch of buyers but I cannot find a supplier and I don’t know what I’m doing wrong is there a way you could help me?
@sheldonmohl74474 жыл бұрын
You might visit your local pallet company and inquire about their supplier of lumber and other materials that they have delivered directly to their business. Or if that's a bit too much... I used to visit small businesses and offer to remove ALL of their unwanted pallets for free. A lot of businesses already pay a service to have this done for them. So, if you go this route, be sure you can get paid for other size (non 40x48 4 way) pallets. What pallets I couldn't sell, I used them as replacement boards, cutting them if necessary, to make a sellable pallet. That's how I did it, I knew just by looking at their pallets, what the potential cash payment would be when I sold them to my favorite pallet company.

There are some factors that have to be met in order to make money with pallets. If you don't have a constant supply from local businesses, don't live in a large city, or other factor(s), then this might not work for you.
