adlir Posted March 2, 2009 Author 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, Thanks mate .

bigamac Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Just wondering, how'd you get the pallets to stay still?Get the heavy duty pallets. Normally blue or red.And i find mine behind local small trade shops.Eg there's a cleaners up the top of my road. They have a few now and then.

onza boy27 Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 I would get them from local industrial estates or farmers but I just make them myself at work.I get wood free and I can make them with small gaps in so your wheel doesn't fall through.Josh.

J.KYDD Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 if you realy struggle to stop them sliding, (especially on taps where the top couple always slide)get hold of some wratchet (sp?) straps, as used to tie down goods on flatbeds. these are great at holding pallets in placecheers josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lewisrzoo Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 (edited) My dad was building a garage at the time so when he got cement or bricks i just got them all together over time and i made a thing with wood that was like the pallets.

It is just off the Ripley roundabout. They have hundreds af pallets and i am sure they would let you have some. I used to work there, that is how i know about their pallets.
