Love this video man. Definitely worth looking into. I work for UPS and we have thousands of pallets laying out in our yard and they have been sitting for months
I work for Heavy Duty Body Repair Facility in my area and I have access to lots of different styles and types of pallets and shipping crates. The work of disassembly of those pallets and crates is substantial, but the product I'm left with varied, raw, rustic materials with which I create all kinds of projects. Mostly small to medium projects, but the demand for high quality workman ship, assembled with all solid-wood has really taken off. God willing, I fully intend to make a business out of it.
I did this as a teenager 25 years ago. A friend and I would have 100 in our back yard and sell in batch for 2-2.50 a piece in Bay Area. I remember hearing a guy dropped a trailer load off at recycler drove into a coors bottling warehouse passed a security check point drove up to pallets and loaded up about 65. 2 mins from buyer waved at security on way out. I remember recycling huge cardboard bales and getting 15 for thousands of pounds of cardboard
I would assume it’s harder today, I called up 1 place and they buy pallets, but he’s only buying 48 by 40 in. Pallets. I noticed a stack of pallets set out beside a convenience store and those pallets actually belongs to a farm that delivers there, and they usually pick those up.
There’s actually a market for used motor oil too, not saying I would want to make a living with reselling it, but the going price is .40 per gallon at a certified oil recycling center.
@@heartofthunder1440 i'm researching the pallet business. i dont understand what you are trying to express regarding the convenience store and the farm. Can you explain again in a different way...i'm trying to understand what you're trying to say...
@@The-Right-is-RightI’m guessing the shipper who deliver the materials have agreement with the business. They drop off the materials but at some point, the delivery guy will return to retrieve the shipper’s pallets. The business does not own the pallets. Even if they’re sitting there on his property.
Yes I just seen your video I live over in Jacksonville Florida in Duval county I get pallets everyday and I actually make pilot tables or them coffee tables chairs make all kinds of stuff and get Hunter to 300 pilot sometimes a week or more
Most pallet yards pay around 2-3 bux a pallet if they are good. 500 pallets ALL GOOD may cut you a 1k check. 500 pallets will kill you loading them every day just an fyi.
So go get free pallets from a builder, with an expensive truck/trailer, to store it on your property to then re-sell to businesses that typically have deals worked out with large suppliers to make $1,000 a day…. This is click bait.
You must ask the store owner can you take their pallets cardboard or go through their dumpsters or you'll get a ticket always ask the store or can I take it that's how I get my cash paint cans aluminum cans tin cans instruction work I take use equipment and stuff and go get sell it to the recycler Christmas time is my best season for Christmas lights copper
its harder but you can take free pallets from places that dont want them and sell them for i remember 15 a piece. you can also take old pallets and fix them and resell them. there are different size pallets 48x48 you can also make baby pallets 24x24
Don’t get the government involved if you can help it. We don’t need them to trade good things to good people. We need to stop with this attitude of asking for permission from a bureaucracy.
How about advertising that you buy pallets? Not only does this solve problems for the business but it also helps them increase their end of year profits
Here in Arkansas, junkyard requires palm print's, finger prints, face recognition and video of you being paid, anything that's stolen you will go to jail. And they have implemented some sorta x-ray so if anything is holding water you're charged 250.00 fine and lose all rights to scrap anything state wide. Most businesses here say they're paid for pallet returns so they don't give them away and the one's that will let you have them already have a contract with someone to get them, I tried this idea for more than a month trying to find a way in. It's interesting to me that Florida has this issue and it's completely under wrap's here. I do love the idea, it's just so tight here even the pallet broker in the capital only pays 3 bucks for oak pallets in perfect condition. Hopefully something will change because it's an excellent idea and if you could make 7-8 buck's a pallet you could actually make a living. That's what a good condition oak pallet should be worth anyways. My favorite idea is the stump grinder business! Now theirs tons of opportunity here for a business like that to take off no problem! Just having the capital to get off the ground, I wouldn't want to lose the equipment if thing's got slow during the winter, so buying upfront and owning your own stump grinder would be key.
Hey Jack, do you think you could make a video on how to escape the money rat race? Or if you’re not in the rat race how to stay out of the rat race? Thanks man!

Everybody and there grandmother is doing this now, it's EXTREMELY oversaturated. Pallet trucks everyday on the road, everybody competing. There's no way to do this once profitable business in 2023 and actually be succesful, UNLESS you've already been doing it and have a place in the market
@Maja Milesic i already made it into the pallet business, and succeeded, and now quit that and started much more profitable businesses.. So I have no incentive to keep people away from the pallet business other than to help my fellow people not waste there time. It used to be an incredible opportunity Now it's just an incredible opportunity to lose money
Go clock in... you're not a business person... and that's ok. My wife is not a business person and makes more money than a lot of people. It's not for everyone.
5 years go taix h r taix cheap live with them help wheelchair food I try to put food on the table but I'm barely making it taxes are kind of high I use h&r tax block I try to help the homeless out if I could I usually give a little bit to charity every year you know there's no such thing as a salvation army and we feed the children and Red Cross United Way is my favorite charity oh Chicago food Bank I try to help out any way I can I usually give a small check
A lot of stuff I usually go on the beach or lakefront and use a metal detector magnet and some stuff I just want to buy luck some days it's dry some days is good $5 to $2 a day that's it I'm a very poor man artwork it's okay the cells are down this year some days are good some days are bad that's it part-time work salary 19 hours a day that's all I can work I'm so poor

We also have big stack of pallets at our shared warehouse. Pallets are everywhere but little money in reselling them.
Jack, I remember you did a similar video of this about 2 years ago and I passed it on to a few friends. You got to have the hustle.

Yeah its definately not as easy or simple as they make it seem@@heartofthunder1440

You always have the BEST ideas 💡. Thank you for sharing. Blessings, Carlos ✝️🙏❤️😊❗️

I really like these types of videos
Thanks!

What do you think about wrapping cars? I want to start a business customizing cars surrounding that
You must ask the store owner can you take their pallets cardboard or go through their dumpsters or you'll get a ticket always ask the store or can I take it that's how I get my cash paint cans aluminum cans tin cans instruction work I take use equipment and stuff and go get sell it to the recycler Christmas time is my best season for Christmas lights copper
A truck, trailer & warehouse space are expensive. You would need to have all that equip & space for another business & then test waters.
Cash for pallets usually find pallets anywhere make about a $500 a day to $1,000 but you get at least about 500 pallets she'll make it
Thanks for the advice in this video!
just have a quick question...
is it harder to flip brand new pallets??
or would it be better ?
bro liked hut didnt answer
its harder but you can take free pallets from places that dont want them and sell them for i remember 15 a piece. you can also take old pallets and fix them and resell them. there are different size pallets 48x48 you can also make baby pallets 24x24
this guys a genius. very well explained great video!
You need some sort of buisness license? This is such a great idea..Company I work for is always screaming for pallets
Where is the company location?
What is the name of the company you work for?
Don’t get the government involved if you can help it. We don’t need them to trade good things to good people. We need to stop with this attitude of asking for permission from a bureaucracy.
Nice video thanks.

Here in NY you get one of those water heaters. Fill it up with water and let it freeze. The junkyard pays by weight. 🤣💪
