As someone that has routinely worked with pallets, this information is phenomenal and effective at conducing the success of my pallet management.
Thanks Ryan - We tried to cover all common questions that are asked about pallets. I appreciate the comment. Do you have any suggestions on what other type of video that would be beneficial? We are always open to ideas

A fascinating aspect that makes the world work. Who first invented standard pallets?
The guy in the video should be one of the show case models on The Price Is Right! 😁
good info, thanks for posting this

thanks for explaining this.
Thanks so much for the comment Keller!!
Never knew that about the skid definition. Many people call standard pallets skids. Machinery comes on skids often with plywood decks the keep them from racking. Those slat and block pallets and any No.2 pallets (repaired) I give away so neighbors and passersby take them to base their firewood on. Had problems with slat and block pallets with huge slumping loads of potting soil bags. My 42” fork tines won’t reach the third slat so the loads want to tip away. Stringer pallets don’t do that ever. Fork tines just lift the top decking and the stringers keep it organized.
Very clear. Thanks!
That was damned informative. Thank you.
Thanks for the reply!
It was the intro music for me.. then the gangsta lean...😃
Thank you very informative!

This is actually pretty good

do you need a licence to collect pallets off streets and sell them.on to pallet yards in the uk?
No I doubt it - lots of companies just throw them away but I would check the sizes you get with the pallet yards prior to dropping them off, just to be sure they can take them. not all pallets are sell-able. Thanks for the comment
Good video. 3:50 Why can't a pallet jack be used with a partial 4 way?
Hi Joe G, thanks for the comment. A pallet jack has wheels and thick forks making it to large to fit into the notched side of the partial four way pallet
T.O.P 👍🏽....from indonesia
I can’t believe this video made it to Indonesia! That’s awesome and thanks for the comment @laksana berkah

Where is this

I have 8 of these things somebody gave me which are made out of steel and have curved steel footings that seem to be made to slide across a warehouse floor and would sure like to know what they're called. Sled pallets, right?
Hi Bart - thanks for the comment. I have seen them before. I’m not sure if they have a specific name to them other then a ‘steel pallet’ i will look into it and if I find a name to them - I will edit my response
I recently found a couple large pallets that don’t have any gaps in the planks, is this specifically used for something? Looks like a little deck. It’s like 4x6
WL #1 , regular #1 pallets and #2 pallets.
You didn't mention the euro pallet and it's quite popular too.
I sometimes take broken pallets from my workplace, for firewood. Goods arrive on them every day and they are quite flimsily built. I choose pallets made of hardwood as they are better for burning than softwood but hardwood pallets are few and far between. I think they are made in India or someplace like this as the wood is different from any European kind of wood I know. It resembles beech by the structure but it's definitely something else. I feel kinda bad because I burn wood that might be coming from tropical rainforests but if I don't take those, they will end up in the big container and probably get turned into chipboards or some other shit.
Hi Vlad, you are right I do not mention the euro or other styles - I just decided to keep things simple for the video. If I were to get into all styles and types of pallets, this video would be hours long lol
Thanks for the comment
