    Look up companies that SELL pallets. We sell a grade A pallet for $2.50 grade B we are getting $1.25 each.



    Running cardboard and or pallets is not a huge profit gain. But I have done both....with pallets..to make some good money find a huge amount of pallets some where (you will buy them) send a trucker out there load the suckers up and truck them down.

    in town trucker will cost around $500 to $700 a day Out of town trucker will cost from $800 to $1200 a day. Thats them using there own truck, trailer, fuel, truck insurance and trailer insurance.

    Semi rig gets around 4 to 6mpg's....don't have the trucks run for more than what is needed and you will save money so think far a head and have everything planed out hour by hour.
