    plastic pallets

    I have a lead on about 150 plastic pallets and am looking for a way to profit from it. Anyone from Maine, NH or MA have any leads to sell them? I will check but I think they are 48x40 4 way pallets. This would be an ongoing thing with the company my brother works for.

    plastic pallets

    local pallet companies pay approx $5 ea as long as they are not marked "us postal" wont touch them if they are. if you have an end user you could expect $20 ea.

    I would check with Stillwater, Ewasted, Patriot, and Urbanrecycling. The list could go on forever, but those are people that may have a use for them

    they work well for the walk from the truck to the house cause they won't rot like the old wood ones did, but the hogs don't like em as much on the pen, cause they don't scratch as good as the old wood ones do

    I will contact RE-Harvest, I brought plastic to them once when I had a big pile of it. I think the place in Lewsiton is not in business any more but send me the number, I may have them mixed up with someone else.
