Sidehop Stuart Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Do I Have to pay 4 emYes, I don't know anywhere I can get decent ones for free.Just wondering, how'd you get the pallets to stay still?When pallets are in good condition they are flat and you can stack them up without them moving.

___RD_ Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Got to your local industrial/factories estates they have loads broken and still fully build pallets that they are throwing away ..........well my industrial estate does Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Melson Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Go to a local FedEx or other courier service they always have sh*t loads thats were i got all mine from just ask them nicely and they will let u take them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 Just wondering, how'd you get the pallets to stay still?Screw them together, that's what I do anyway. The stacks don't slide around because they're just sitting on mud, so they dig into it over time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried rachet straps but they were shite, they still let the pallets slide about and they snapped eventually from me having to have them so tight.

Joe Hawkins Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 (edited) I Have Mates Near me that ride trials so i will organise a ride We won't be able to get in though, there's spikes every where and lots of cctv. Lil pads has asked before on a Friday when we were out on a ride if we can go and ride on a few of the unused pallets behind the warehouse and they said no due to insurance reasons. We're better off going to lil pads house to ride or go down one day with your Dads van when you know he's out and nick a few pallets, maybe even the spool!!!!!

elliott the onza man Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 My uncle is a farmer and gave me loads. He said that farmers are always happy to give them away as they have to pay to get rid of them, so just ask some local farmers and they should give you some.Hope this helped, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
