I have 30-40. I get them from the local paint store. I will screw a couple 2x6s of the appropriate length to the underside to create a long lumber pallet for the sawmill. Let’s me pick up the whole stack with the pallet forks and keeps the stack flat. I do 8, 10, 12 and 16 foot. 20 and 24 foot stuff I usually stack on my rig mats if they’re not rented out. Stuff that long doesn’t stay around long. It’s either been ordered or I cut it to use right away.
Chronographs, bore scopes and pattern boards have broke a lot of hearts.

Wife and daughters had a large yard sale back in August. Wanted me to put out some "barn sale" stuff as well to attract more buyers. Put out about 12 items. All pre-staged / strapped down onto pallets. Sale day, only took me about 20 minutes to move everything from the barn out along the roadway. Managed to sell 11 of the 12 items and ship the pallets down the road along with the goods. I got rid of pallets that were accumulating. Buyers were glad to have their stuff loaded with a skid steer... Win-Win...

I had 30 or so, until we decided to build a 32 foot duck blind. Most were used for that. The rest I just rcebtly burned cause they were in bad shape.

I haven’t counted in a while but probably around 150. I use them to stack square bales on in my hay barn. Work like a champ but can be a snake haven during the winter. Takes a lot of pallets to stack 1000-2000 squares on. But I’m able to sell the bottom bales that way.

How many pallets do you have
From the title of the original post I thought this was going to be a thread about how many pallets of 22 ammo that aomeone has squirreled away. I wasn't going to admit to having any since I would be called a hoarder.

223 Rem, my favorite cartridge - you can't argue with truckloads of dead PD's and gophers.

Trying to think what all we get on pallets.
And we don't have pallet forks so I offload it by hand...
Bags of cattle mineral by the ton.
Bags of corn/alfalfa seed.
Herbicide.
Net wrap.
Lick tubs.
(cattle)
Steel t-posts.
Barrels of Rotella.
That said there might be 3-4 pallets laying around, two of which from last week. I try to return them ASAP.
We have enough crap laying around as it is!

Got one that an aluminum exterior staircase came on; stringers, risers, steps all in pieces. Its made completely out of plywood never seen that before. Cheap plywood, 4 drops of rain and it'd swell up and start falling apart. Its going to the scrap guy.

What does this dude win? I watched him build the addition onto his place over a couple months as I’d drive by for work. I’m sure everything is square..... ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/NFgqq17L/427250-B5-30-A2-4772-8-F12-2-A84-F98-C5-C7-D.jpg) This ^^^ is just what we're looking for in this thread. Them blue ones can be pretty heavy duty. We're you at that the county code enforcement hasn't come around.......................TX? Code enforcement hahaha! I don’t know if there is any in rural SW Oklahoma. Most people just build whatever they want. Code enforcement wet dream in my county. Assessor of Property wants “her investments” protected.

Jim, main problem is we don't have a building big enough to get a loader in to unload.
You've been by the farm, we short on room.
(suitable for a building...)

Oh yeah....I had one from Frito-Lay, all plastic and had wheels
Dude, that would be sweet. I could stack some split juniper on it and wheelie it over to the house, throw a blue tarp over it, anchor that with some dead tires and look like I fit in around here. Need a thread on tarps and things covered with tarps. We need a Logcutter search light like Bricktop's!

Empty,
hanging around you place,?
stacked for later use?
Stored at your pop's place down the road?
Already in use as chicken gulags, firewood holders, target backers, compost bins, etc? Dang things are sure handy to have around.
Where do you find replacements or "new" ones?
Have any of those high tech polymer ones?
I counted mine up. I think I'm at thirteen now.
Who's the winner? ] pallots of 22LR Pallots of SP primmers........... not telling........

Assessor of Property wants “her investments” protected. You aught to load up the Country Squire and come on out to the land of the free Slum. You an Rene would probably fit right in around here. Used to be an old single wide on the west end of town. When their boy got to be a teenager and needed his own space they bought about a 68 model Shasta 14’ camper. Cut a hole in the side of the trailer and set the camper up on 2 stacks about 4 pallets high and had them an “addition” wish I had a pic but the great flood of 00’ swept the whole works down the creek into the lake. The lake that’s the big town south of here’s water source!

Make sure it's a plastic 4-way.

Make sure it's a plastic 4-way. I want a nice hardwood one with nice grain. Well made. In Excellent condition. Something I can be proud to own. Dont know what in the Fugg I'm gonna do with it. But at least I can fit in with the 24 pallet cool kids. It's like I'm on the outside looking in. 1st rule about pallet club is you dont talk about pallet club. 2nd rule about pallet club is you dont talk about pallet club.
